Ok so it was some time ago in January for that 3D Classics: Kid Icarus competition, all you had to do was qualify with the games you have registered between a certain period of time and give them your e-mail address.
Done and done, when the download codes went out however I never received mine, e-mailed Nintendo they told me they would look into it two weeks had passed heard nothing, that was roughly a month and a half a go.
I finally received this e-mail today
The download code didn't work, so just in case they need to make it active or whatever other reason it might not work i still took it out. The code had already been redeemed apparently.
They also misspelled my name wrong yet on the account it clearly says Arron but that's no big deal haha.
I know it's a free promotion etc. And i shouldn't really be complaining considering it's free, but why shouldn't I? Everyone else got there promotional code. At the end of the day it's £5.40 saved.
I just think it's really poor effort from Nintendo to address this issue properly and faster.
