May have to substitute wonderful 101 for Rayman or Luigi since it gets 60 club points

I have 300 now with 125 pending in surveys...60 for nintendo land and 60 for wonderful 101 and 30 for Luigi gets me to 25 away from platinum which I can use digital deluxe credits to download games for that

Just means no Rayman legends, which is the one I most want but perhaps I DL that one

Damn nintendo and their club altering my purchase strategies (and for not giving points for retail ubisoft games; only downloads)

I was under the impression SLU and NSMBU were basically the same game, but looking at the pricing, no way that can be correct.

Luigi is add-on (have to own nsmbu I think) that gives all new (harder) levels playing only as Luigi

Only 30 club coins tho

Luigi U is stand alone if you get the retail copy. You need NSMBU if you want the digital version.

So we're getting this as free DLC. I think it looks terrible and completely out of place. I hope this is a one off type deal, I don't want to see commercial products in Mario games. If you're going to put a benz in Mario Kart at least give us a modern SLS or a classic instead of a ****ing GLA.

It's target policy

Buy the games then go to customer service with receipt for adjustment if cashier won't do it

As long as it's prime they have to match

Now some could say no matching with the b2g1 but that shouldn't be hard to find one to do it either

But straight up matching they have to

With target you can also return one or two of the games for proportional refund

So lots of people are pre-buying super smash bros u online with two other games then canceling the other 2 before shipping and getting ssbu for $38.00

Or any game you want in target is 33% off by buying 3 games and returning 2

Damn, just picked up MK8 right before this promo. Not sure I want to drop another $80 on games I won't be playing for a few months right now though.

Within 7 days, yeah

Take in receipt and use it to get 2 more games for price of one

Then return 2 of those games and you'll be refunded more than you paid today, making your original mario kart 8 purchase cheaper

You also should have them price match to amazon $48 for mk8 if u didn't already

Ubisoft having a summer sale on eshop; up to 75% off

ZombiU - 23
Rayman Legends - 20
Ass Creed III - 15
Ass Creed IV - 20
Splinter Cell BlackList - 23
Rabbids Land - 13
Cloudberry Kingdom - 5
Marvel Avengers: Battle for When Did This Come Out? - 15
Your Shape: 2013 - 13
ESPN Sports Connection - 13
The Smurfs 2 - 20

Guess I'll get Rayman Legends this way instead of Target (get club nintendo points for digital but not retail ubi games)

Rabbids Land for $13 is tempting too for playing with my kids; original wii one was fun

True

I bought assassins creed 4 retail and no pin and club nintendo's site only says the download versions give points

Eligible products is pretty clear:

I guess it's totally different for PAL. I've gotten points for both AC games, rayman and splinter cell. All were retail. There's actually quite a few games on there that say DL only that I've gotten points for.

On the other hand, just from a quick browse of the US club nintendo sote, you guys have it so much better than us. We can't get any software for example.

Devil's Third is now a Wii U exclusive. For those who don't know, it's the new game from the creator of Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive. It was originally going to be published by THQ but we all know what happened there. I hope this and Bayonetta sell so that Nintendo can continue this trend of picking up niche games that no other publisher wants to take the risk on.

Also this.

Missed the target sale but got platinum

If anyone needs a few points more for platinum, the ubisoft estore sale is great...cloudberry kingdom is $5 and gives 20 points, for example

Only have one more day for gold/platinum
