My Nintendo Store Adds Holiday And New Year Rewards (North America)

Welp time for my annual calendar order.

I love it!!! Let's-a-go!!!

Im definitely tempted by both but I might get the calendar.

Nintendo avoiding Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, and even Metroid to use in any general merchanchise that involves all their IPs together.

For a holiday ornament it's certainly not evoking any kind of holiday feelings.

In the olden days of Club Nintendo, they would've sent you an actual ornament and not a paper cutout with some characters printed on it. And you wouldn't have to pay for your own shipping. Nintendo has really improved when it comes to just about every facet of their company over the past several years imo, but My Nintendo is still a ghost of its former self.

From the ornament packaging:
WARNING: Cancer and reproductive harm

ARE YOU FEELING FESTIVE YET

hanging a Nintendo themed whoppee cushion on your Christmas tree is a bit strange.

As silly as it may be, I'm really glad I've got my 2024 Nintendo calendar. 2023 sold out too fast.

I've noticed this on the rear packaging of Switch games from the USA too. I suspect that it may have something to do with food contamination, as opposed to the packaging/cartridges themselves being inherently harmful.

So don't substitute ice cubes for Switch cartridges with your drinks, kiddies!

More than just a little strange is the infernal stench of Peach's rumpy-dump after a Christmas feast.

I see now that I brought a knife to a gun fight.

I yield.

I have a Nintendo themed mini tree in my game room, so this ornament will be a nice addition to that.

The Nintendo store has really become a monument to capitalism. I was interested in the calendar and went in there with my measly points they give for spending hundreds of dollars for games. I check and I have more than enough points and I go to checkout and with tax(?), which is not supposed to be taxed, on shipping it is $7.48. Flat media like this is at most $2.00 in postage based on the weight. I am not falling for the free now, let’s profit on the shipping scam. This is not a good thing Nintendo and Club Nintendo was a much better offering for your loyal customers.

@Zidentia @Not_Soos I have a similar calendar from Club Nintendo that I put out every few years when it’s valid again but I can’t justify the shipping costs to get these. I get it, S&H can’t be free, but $1.99 should cover it. For $7 I’ll just wait until January and buy a full sized calendar on clearance.

I am planning on using a screen capture as my PC wallpaper though. 😎

Not their pic, this pic.😉

Finally, been waiting for the calendar! All month I've been looking at the 2013 one wondering when they'll release the next one. The ornament will go perfect with our tree. It will go between the previous Xmas Super Mario ornament and my Megadeth ornament

Me brother collects stuff like this. He has a box full. Some of the stuff is meh but he has these cute tiny little pokemon keyrings. I wanna steal them...

I'm just glad the calendar is out. These Nintendo card calendars have become a staple in my home office.
