The new account system Nintendo will be using, My Nintendo, which is replacing Club Nintendo and will be used for the new mobile apps in the future is up. You can now easily register for an account through the link below. Previous NNID's can be linked to your new account as well, so don't forget to do so! Once you've done that, preregister for Miitomo and get points here!

We have to wait until the 2nd of Seventeenuary?

lol you guys and your European date systems.

While the NNID system could have just been expanded, I do see that since this is the Club Nintendo successor, and how it was separate, Nintendo Accounts should be kept separate too so that kids can't just sign up for this shit similar to how it's done on a console. Besides, not everyone gets digital stuff, if codes are given out for physical copies, why not allow people to get the rewards that way too?

Not available in my country. Well f**k you Nintendo

On the bright side seems like I still remember my password

 

[HaloEffect17]

This looks good; hope it's better than the US Club Nintendo.

 

[endoverend]

Keep your fingers crossed for a weird cloud computing system? would be pretty cooool....

I live in Mexico and we dont even have the way to register, my old USA account works for it.

SO it was the same as before. They insist that latin gamers aren't a thing. or poland. Or any other suffering the same region bullcrap

 

[Clydefrosch]

Am I really first one to say that this is just dumb. What's the reason to have seperate account when users already have NNID? This only confuses and annoys everyone and they are basically seperating themselves from their own hardware.

you can sign up and then log in using your nnid

Then where's the Miitomo download links since it launched yesterday?

THEY LAUNCH AT THE SAME TIME! ie, in March.
By signing-up you are 'pre-registering' your 'My Nintendo' account and will be informed of the Miitomo release.
My Nintendo is not live until March.

Here's the 'text' from the email Nintendo sent;

Thank god for OpenVPN. I couln't register because my country isn't supported yet, even though I have a USA account, they trace your location.

 

[Nollog]

This is for Nintendo Account, not MyNintendo.

 

[Pluupy]

Registered, Linked to Nintendo ID, and verified immediately. Very nice site.

"My Nintendo is not currently available in your country."

WHAT THE FUCK.
I could use Club Nintendo just fine with an american account and a Brazilian Eshop 3DS. God dammit...

"MyNintendo" isn't the account system, it's the rewards program. The reward program goes live in March, however, the account system just went live this week.

The new account system Nintendo will be using, My Nintendo, which is replacing Club Nintendo and will be used for the new mobile apps in the future is up.

The text from the nintendo email that I attached that no one's bothering to read:
"Preregistered users will be notified via email when Miitomo is released. By preregistering for Miitomo before its release, users will earn points in My Nintendo, a rewards programme that launches at the same time as Miitomo! Points can be redeemed for rewards via My Nintendo."

So... My Nintendo is the Club Nintendo replacement, it launches in March (along side Miitomo), therefor all that is currently 'live' is preregistration.
Technically, the 'accounts' system is still NNID.

What's with this "country not supported" business that people seem to be getting? Color me ignorant, but wouldn't Nintendo want to branch their service or to as many people as possible? Leaving an entire country out just feels like leaving money on the table to me, so tell me please, what's the expense in opening the online service to everyone?

More like an entire continent.
No South American country is currently supported by My Nintendo. Not even the english version of the site works - it tracks your location.

My Nintendo IS THE NEW CLUB NINTENDO. you link it with your actual NNID to redeem the prices. Nintendo was smart enough this time and you can use the same NNID user and password to register to My Nintendo, if you do so it automatically link them.
Miitomo is another story, is a social app and is the one blocked in certain countries. I myself had to use a VPN to fake that I lived in USA and be able to preregister.

Use OpenVPN to fake your location, I did that because is tracks you before you can even input your My Nintendo account.

I know.
I was pointing all of the things out in my post for the people claiming it's already active, and/or a new account system.
NNID is STILL the only Nintendo account system, and as you say, 'My Nintendo' is the rewards program that replaces Club Nintendo. Miitomo is a mobile app that launches along side My Nintendo in March. Preregistering now is just that - PREREGISTERING - your My Nintendo account will still not be useable until it launches in March. I've edited my post you quoted for clarity.

I remember with Club Nintendo I ordered a yoshi t-shirt XL size.
I received a medium size.... not my size...
I gave it to my sisters.
The next day, I received another yoshi t-shirt, XL Size.

Most likely not because Nintendo is stupid.
