My Nintendo doesn't reward NES, or Game Boy VC purchases, and the top tier missions are impossible to impossible.

So My Nintendo and Miitomo launched in most of the first world today. Yaaaay! But looking at the missions for My Nintendo makes me miss Club Nintendo.

So the minimum Gold mission is spending $5-$9.99 for 10 Gold points. That means that Game Boy ($3.99) and NES ($4.99) games aren't rewarded. That means that 112 out of 164 3DS (68%!) Virtual Console games and 86 out of 226 (38%) Wii U Virtual Console games do not reward the user. I know it's a loyalty program, and users are not expected to buy games just for the rewards. It just the fact that a) Club Nintendo rewarded you with points no matter the price of the game; and b) It's a loyalty program that doesn't reward users for purchasing a rather large chunk of its online store offerings, offerings that are most liable to be purchased by their most layal customers.

Also interesting are the top tiers: 70 coins for $60-$69.99 and 80 coins for $70+. Those tiers are impossible to reach with any single game purchase, as most standard retail games are priced at $59.99. An hint of things to come?

Thoughts?

In Europe the VC FireEmblem Games got discounted. I bought all 3 seperately and spend below 5 €, but still got 10 Gold coins for each.

• Fire Emblem (Nintendo, Game Boy Advance) - 3,49 € (Das Angebot endet am 14. April 2016, normaler Preis: 6,99 €)
  
• Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones (Nintendo, Game Boy Advance) - 3,49 € (Das Angebot endet am 14. April 2016, normaler Preis: 6,99 €) 
  
• Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (Nintendo, Nintendo DS) ) - 4,99 € (Das Angebot endet am 14. April 2016, normaler Preis: 9,99 €)

11,97 € => 30 Gold Coins. I like Nintendo.

Nintendo of America pisses me off.
