Bye bye Club Nintendo, it's your last day.
18 Februari 2004, Super Mario Sunshine, is what is says when I look at my very first entry. Such a long time ago. Over 11 years, and a lot has happened since. I remember back then Club Nintendo would give you 5 Stars each day you logged on to the site. At christmas 2004, we'd get two special desktop images for free. The first 'treasure' I purchased was the Zelda Collector's Edition for Gamecube, for the price of 4000 Stars.
After that though, I went on a sort of Nintendo hiatus, only returning to Club Nintendo in 2008. A shame, because many games for both Gamecube and Gameboy Advance had their Stars left, unused. With the Wii and DS, I managed to get together the 7500 Stars for a cool Super Mario diarama, which I have promently displayed. To save some 2000 Stars from oblivion, I got a Wii Points card after they introduced the policy of expirable Stars. Still, going into the 3DS era, I had enough Stars to get a Zelda pouch, and some digital games.
29 September 2015, Captain Toad Treasure Tracker. I got it just in time. I was there from the early beginnings, when it was still called 'VIP 24:7' and I'll be there for the new reward service. I hope it will last another 13 years, here's to Club Nintendo!
