I mean for people like myself who buy all the games digitally, this is basically a $5% off everything on top of $16 worth of current coins. Not too bad, makes up for digital prices being generally higher.

Yeah, but why expiry date for Golden points? A lot of people were saving them for this, and now all they get is a big "fuck you" for their loyalty. You've had luck, majority didn't. If you've earned hard something with your patience and money, why slap your customers like that? That's just showing how much they (don't) care about them. It's alright to be tactical in your business, but this is way over all the limits. They just know they have the most faithful user base, and exploit that.

for an indie. apparently.:D
full price big title can save you up to $4 aud.



region lock gold coin.... even worst than expected...

if you 400 gold coins, I guess. it's not like you get that many gold coins for registering a new game. what, like 50? they give you 50 cents for registering a new game?

hopefully they expand on this when themes and vc exist? seems like they just want to offer the discounts you could buy on mynintendo for 3ds/wii u through the eshop itself, basically, though the discount will vary based on your gold coins. i don't know if i like it yet.

lol $400+ in new games are worth $0.94 for Nintendo rewards. Almost $900 deep into this console, worth it. ;p
hm no if you buy on eshop its 5% so 400$ of e shop purchases gives you 20$ of discounts.


when registring phisical cartriges its only 1% discount wich means 400$ of games would give you 4$ discount lol

It's impossible for anyone's points to have expired since the Switch launch. If anyone was gathering points well before that, they probably intended to use them on another system.

1% when buying physical games I do not like until it seems that they want to get rid of physical games

i'm thinking like %90 of all people are getting way more than %5 cash back either by preordering off amazon or buying on sale anyways, it's the digital people who needed some incentive being forced to pay full price for everything.
i haven't paid over $50 for a video game since the N64

It's a little bit sad, really. No worries, new boot code is being typed up by scientists around the globe.
