I just got an e-mail from Nintendo saying I'm going to lose 600 Coins at the end of June if I don't use them. With the other stuff I still need to add, my Coin total will be near 1200.
I don't know what I should get... I'm eying the Starman messenger bag, the hand towels, the folding fans, and the hanafuda cards. |

I've got the Zelda poster set, I'm looking forward to getting the Mario posters at some point, but the DS Game & Watch Collection 2 takes priority. |

While I like the concept of the Game & Watch DS things as exclusive items that are actually games, there are two problems:
1. They are DS games; a handheld that I am becoming increasingly unfond of.
2. They are Game & Watch collections... which hold no appeal to me from a gameplay standpoint.
I have seen David's posters, and they are pretty nice looking, but I don't have room on my walls. I would have room for the fans, however.
I think the hanafuda cards are a great piece of Nintendo memorabilia, so I'm considering those... but they cost 800 coins! While I do have nearly 1300 now, that's a lot to drop on cards that I will never use.
I already have a bunch of themed bags that I never use (like the Shivan Dragon backpack that just sits on a bookshelf), so the Starman messenger bag would probably be a waste too.
Hmmm... decisions. |

I'm going to necro my own thread here, since I'm at the same crossroads again. I have 450 coins expiring in 2 weeks. I was saving them for the gold nunchuck, which Nintendo seems to have discontinued so hard that it isn't even listed as " currently unavailable."
My grand total of coins is up to 1020, and I'm 30 coins away from Platinum status for the year. I don't know where to get those 30 coins either. Curse you, Nintendo, for not releasing Pikmin 3 on time!!!! |

Download a Wii U game or three. Those post-play surveys should do the trick.
My next purchase is going too be the Mario poster set. |

In my opinion the prize selection has gotten significantly worse over the past year or so. The next item I get that's actually available will probably be the giant AR Card, since I already have the Mario posters. Hopefully they will come out with better stuff before I have to use my points. |

Jonzor, you're screwed. The Mario Posters are "currently unavailable." Which is apparently Nintendo Code for "never to be seen again."
That's not an opinion, db, it's a fact. Their prize selection has become absolutely atrocious. I don't really WANT any of the current prizes, but if I don't spend my coins I will simply be wasting them.
Curse you, Nintendo, for putting arbitrary expiration dates on imaginary currency!!!! |

Oh no! I checked like a month ago and I swear they were there!
No Mario posters, no hafanuda cards, no Game and Watch game... literally my top 3 rewards are off the shelf right now. |
