I recently went to the Club Nintendo website to mark The Last Story as "intend to buy" so I could get a few more extra coins, but to my surprise the only available game to do so was New Super Mario Bros 2. I sent an email to club nintendo to see if there would be any club nintendo promotion for the game. I got a response today that told me that the game was now entirely published by XSeed Games and that Nintendo are not partners in publishing the game.

A little surprising to me but considering all the free pre-order extras that XSeed are throwing in (plus the fact that the game is finally coming to the U.S.), I am not that mad about this.

it was known for some time that Xseed was publishing it

ive already beaten the game
havent tried to register it so...fine
anyway, great game
hoping to see it pulling good numbers in the US

That settles it! I'm gonna get Xenoblade instead.

You won't regret it.

I've been saying for weeks, months, nearly a year, that Xenoblade is a must-buy. If you didn't listen to me and the 1,250 posts in the thread, then more fool you

However, TLS is still a great gane, and since XSEED is publishing, it's no surprise that there's no points.

im pretty sure that doesn't mean that it doesnt have points...there have been a few games (i think) that came out without an "intend to buy" but had points in them. There have also been third party games with points...i think we need to wait to say for sure
