The only thing i hate about this is you can only get Gold points from eshop purchases.... i don't buy full retail games from the eshop...

Platinum comes from playing their mobile titles, i.e. exposing yourself to their marketing. Gold comes from actually spending money on their non-mobile stuff, i.e. falling for their marketing.

>_< kids is what happened.  one little stupid blemish on both discs and they do not work at all now...first time some shit like this ever happened to me  .. and i lied other physical wii u game i own is skylanders swapforce

Wait, so you only get the rewards if you buy games digitally? Okay, that's just lame, as someone who buys most games physical. I don't see why they just can't have codes to put in, like Club Nintendo did. Also, I don't believe the NX will be digital only. I don't see them dropping physical goods just yet.

And there are 2 games you can buy with Plat points, so that's something... I should have reworded that...

Because they are moving to digital only with the NX, meaning their's no point wasting recourses encouraging people to hold on to physical buying habits with the Wii U and 3DS. It would be a bad move to have codes for physical games under this reality, so it isn't lame. It's necessary.

You may not personally want digital only, but that's what's going to happen with NX. There's literally no reason to make My Nintendo digital only if they plan on supporting physical media in the future. Literally everything is pointing to this, and it has been for like two years now.

Picross and a DSiware game are barely something, Cloud, especially when they are far and away the most expensive things you can buy with them.

Still love you though lol not trying to be mean.

Digital games, eh. That's nice .

My guess is a fully digital NX with possible amiibo cards as physical markers for games.

But just to be clear, they never said anything about achievements. We are just assuming this based off how PP are gained in Miitomo which is achievement-like, how My Nintendo is supposed to be the core of NX (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-03-17-nintendo-nx-is-new-hardware-with-a-brand-new-concept), and how Nintendo said that playing Wii U and 3DS wouldn't net you PP.

They've been explicitely clear about it being digital only, though.

100% this. What I've been saying for months.

Yeah same.

Likely for different reasons than you, admittedly lol.
