After nearly seven years and numerous posters, downloadable games, figurines and other goodies, the North American Club Nintendo will, sadly, be shutting its doors tomorrow. While a new loyalty program has been promised to fill its place, Coins from Club Nintendo will not carry forward to the new service. That being said, if you have any unused Coins, go redeem them now!
Nintendo announced the closing of Club Nintendo programs across the globe earlier this year, claiming to be focusing on delivering a new rewards platform. Correspondingly, dozens of downloadable games and physical prizes were made available during the service’s final months. In March, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata announced the company’s partnership with DeNA, which will introduce a new online membership service as well as Club Nintendo’s successor.
The North American Club Nintendo will go offline tomorrow, June 30th, at 11:59 p.m. PST. Thanks for all the memories, Club Nintendo. We’ll miss you!
