It looks like Nintendo's reward programme Club Nintendo is shutting down this year http://nintendoeverything.com/club-nintendo-to-be-discontinued-in-europe-in-favour-of-another-system/ and this year elite status awards will be received in April http://nintendoeverything.com/this-years-club-nintendo-elite-status-gifts-appear-to-be-digital-only-again/

I hope this means we'll get something like PSN or XBL (but free since that's how it's been for the last 4 years of NN)

Hopefully this doesn't mean that NN will become a paid service like PS+ lol.

Agreed, hopefully it won't be a paid service like Playstation Plus, because there are alot of people who just can't afford to pay that kind of money above and beyond what they already are for their gaming hobby...Aqua Cherry Blossom wrote:Hopefully this doesn't mean that NN will become a paid service like PS+ lol.
There are some people who would say that if you can't afford it then you should choose a different hobby, but many of us started gaming decades ago when the economy was still terrific and if we were to suddenly quit gaming it would almost certainly cripple the video game industry.

Maybe they'll do what PS3 did where you can choose one or the other

On Wednesday 1st February 2013, a little series named Crystals of Silveria made its “official” début right here on WiiWareWave.
Now, ten years on, the adventures of Zed Starmute and the Crystalbound are on the verge of their TENTH ANNIVERSARY!
The series may have been quietly shelved since then (creative burnout FTL), but the original 17-episode season is complete and remastered, and available to read in its entirety here.
There’s even a one-shot OVA-styled special that continues the story, as well as serving to “tide over” fans during the interim into later, mostly-on-hiatus storylines.
Either way, it’s PARTY FESTIVAL TIME! WOO!

@Epona Yep, the one which the Family Computer and Super Mario Bros. helped to correct.

Have been saving up on stars for something good, but there is so little of interest in the Europe shop. Guess I hold on for a couple of months and then just cash everything in for Wii points so I can get some WiiWare or VC games.
