Nintendo seemed to have trademarked the 2DS in Japan, so we could be seeing a japanese release of the 2DS quite soon, and seeing how a tax hike occured recently, it is quite the smart move, to release this cheaper model around the time, specially since around 6,000 yen is quite the difference in price.

Also, Hi to everydbody, nice to meet you all.

Wii U news of the 97th day of the current year Nope, seems I can't change my intro!

(now for real)

Wii U news of 07/04/2014: As we begin April, we get new prizes!

• The rewards of Club Nintendo have been update. For the Wii U you can get Super Mario World (200 coins... that's pretty cheap!), and for Wii/Wii U (seems they won't change that until we get the GBA N64 VC) Mario Golf (250 coins)!
• Two Tribes shows a graph of how their price reductions boost the sales of their games!
• Nintendo does... and odd trademark in USA...

Welcome!

As for 2DS I hope it sees a release in Japan. 3DS could use a nice boost there.

As for the Club Nintendo update, this is a pretty good month for NA. I have Mario Golf & Super Mario World already, but those are 2 pretty good games and definitely worth the coins I think.

Nintendo dominated Japanese game sales in the past 12 months

157

9 out of 10 best selling games in Japan in the last 12 months were on Nintendo systems.

Nintendo might be struggling with the Wii U, but it looks like the 3DS is more than making up for it. At least when it comes to the Japanese games market.

Nintendo has dominated the last 12 months of Japanese game sales — so much that 9 out of the top 10 best selling games over the past year were on Nintendo platforms. The only non-Nintendo game on the list is Grand Theft Auto 5 on the PS3.

And while only two Wii U games are on the list, there is only one PS3 game. And no Xbox 360 or Vita games appear on the list. While the PS3 and Vita consoles have been outselling the Wii U, when it comes to games, the Wii U still has better selling titles.

Nintendo’s sales have been slipping in Europe and North America over the past few years, but as the numbers show, the company still has a firm grip on the Japanese market.

The two Wii U games on the top 10 list were New Super Mario Bros U and Wii Party U — no surprise there. Nintendo’s “Party” games are hugely poplar in Japan, and New Super Mario Bros U is… Well, Super Mario. Wii Party U sold almost 700,000 copies, while New Super Mario Bros U managed to move 622,000 copies in the last 12 months.

Here’s the full list of the best selling Japanese games from April 2013 to April 2014, according to Japanese sales tracker Media Create and Famitsu:

1. Pokemon X/Y (3DS): 4,328,008
2. Monster Hunter 4 (3DS): 3,429,862
3. Tomodachi Collection Shin Seikatsu (3DS): 1,635,099
4. Puzzle and Dragons (3DS): 1,358,548
5. Animal Crossing New Leaf (3DS): 774,152
6. Dragon Quest Monsters 2 (3DS): 710,303
7. Grand Theft Auto V (PS3): 699,182
8. Wii Party U (Wii U): 697,042
9. Yokai Watch (3DS): 652,803
10. New Super Mario Bros U (Wii U): 622,502

Be sure to check out the recent weekly Japanese sales numbers, where the Wii U was seeing a nice boost in sales.

I know someone already posted it (most likely), but X and Y topped 12 million!
How far do you think it can go?
And congrats to Pokemon X and Y!!!!!! :D

@Einsam It depends on the system/gane you register. IIRC, 80 is the maximun you can get oer game, and 160 max per system. There are also post play surveys, pre order surveys, and random surveys, and each of then gives 5-15 extra coins.
