Club Nintendo Merchandise
Some very tasty collectables are available to Club Nintendo of Japan members who save their points rather than splash them on soundtracks or DS games. Following on from the DS Game and Watch Collection titles, dedicated points collectors can actually own a reproduction of one of the early Game & Watch handhelds. Guaranteed to cost less points than the amount of collector kudos points it will generate, it was commissioned to celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the Game & Watch release of Ball.
Dedicated Nintendo fans, can nail their colours to the mast or most likely their caps, with these lavish pin badges. The Club Nintendo Original Badge Collection is de rigeur for getting a go on the Nintendo pods at the Tokyo Game Show, but possibly its best to avoid wearing to many in a thunderstorm. Even the boxes have been designed for the collector, piecing together to make a pixellated picture of Mario to celebrate his 25th anniversary. Besides the retro kudos, the boxes can be arranged to make different scenes from the early years of the eternally youthful Mario series.
Club Nintendo of Japan: "ii na!"
We'll keep them coming: Look out for gaming handkerchiefs and golden Mario statues....
