Club Nintendo...Kind of sucks

I'm not comparing the two. I'm saying that Nintendo should get rid of Club Nintendo and create a good program. 

Paying €50 for €1000 worth of games IS free stuff in my book. You can't possibly dislike all the games on PS Plus, otherwise you're not really a gamer I think.

Why would Nintendo ever give up Club Nintendo? The program is not made to benefit you. It's made only for them, and it works. You absolutely are comparing the two. Club Nintendo has entirely different goals than PS Plus, so they would never cancel it to instead make a subscription service. No one is suddenly going to pay $50 a year for the "right" to answer surveys for Nintendo, which is the only reason Club Nintendo exists, and they are not going to devalue their product by their selling games for half off "only if you subscribed to Nintendo Nation." They keep the prices of their games high for a reason.

Yeah, for them to not sell as well as they should.

Sure Mario still sells, that's about it (on Wii U)...

Their marketing is horrible, they're incredibly out of touch. How is Club Nintendo working for them? Have their sales suddenly increased because of a better understanding of the customer? Give me a break.
