Free copy of 3D Classics: Kid Icarus...

nitromaster

...if you register 2 eligible games between 1st November and 31st January 2012.

Also entry into a sweepstakes for a custom Mario 3DS design.

More info: http://3ds.nintendolife.com/news/2011/12/register_2_3ds_games_and_you_could_win_a_mario_3ds

Guessing most people will be planning on picking up super mario 3d land + mario kart 7 so nice little bonus

Mr. K

Sweet. I'll be doing this. Love that free stuff!

Just saw this on eurogamer. Bought SM3DL and MK7...Sweet

Where is the awesomely mediocre WWE All stars on that list? Damn you Amazon black Friday deals! This ****ty game really is good for nothing!

shizz

so what about if you registered them before the date? I registered Pilot Wings aaaages ago.

cloud493

If you registered them before, they don't count.

Mr. K

Interesting the RE Revelations is on the list too, I'd forgotten how close that was. Can't wait!

Ol' Donie

Done. Well, that's nice. Dont know if i'll bother playing it much, but i'll see what its like. Thanks for the heads up.

ProjectColossus

I just registered OOT3D and MK7 but did not get any sort of notification. Where should I be seeing this?

Irish Halo

Nice, just picked up MK7 and SM3DL this morning so this is good news, one of those 3DSs would be nice too

Sames. I'll likely just have it there with the free copy of excite bike, the pokedex, zelda: 4 swords...and the ambassador titles i never used on my home screen :pac:

Same here. I just registered Teris Axis, SML3D and MK7. Where or when will we see a notification saying it's worked ?

Irish Halo

Just Log into your Club Nintendo account.

Look at the right hand side of the page and there should be a box about the Kid Icarus/3DS competition and should say something like "you are now eligible to enter, click here"

ProjectColossus

Ah maybe this is the problem, I was registered with nintendo.co.uk and I registered my games there, not with club.nintendo.com

Have I missed out?

Nope! club.nintendo.com is the US site, they don't even have this program running yet.

http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/club_nintendo/clubNintendoWelcome_p4.do = Europe/english site

If it doesn't come up it's probably just a temporary error or something

Nollog

Anyone have any trouble getting the message?
I can't even login without getting an error.

ProjectColossus

Ah got it at last. I just logged in as usual and it was there. Didn't do anything different, so maybe just takes a few days to sort itself out.

Thanks guys

Oh, just saw this on the other page, NM, think its ok now


Having a bit of a problem with this offer too...

Got SM3DL, reg'd it when I got MK7 when I heard about the Kid Icarus 3d game. I didnt get any confirmation email or anything on the .co.uk page or anything since.

I tried to email their help desk with two different links on the site about it last night asking if I was reg'd for it but the links are dead after you sent your question.

How do you know if you will get this game on the 3ds or not?

Very bad customer support also if both email links are broken, as I remember trying to use those addresses a year ago before and they were both error links with the Waluigi picture.

eh...

Its a strange setup in some ways. What i can tell you is that i registered a the mercenaries and mario 3d a week or two ago. I dropped into the site a few times over that period. Once i noticed a box on the right hand side of the screen that said i had registered one game that was part of this promotion. Then a few days later that box said i was entitled to download the game when it was released. I got no email notification or anything else.

I also noticed that when i was asked to do a survey on mario 3d and skyward sword for 50 points each, they were added to my total at the top of the screen, but not when i checked my account info.

And im still raging about the fact i have games going all the way back to the gba, some of which can be registered (my gamecube, for example), and some of which can't. Then, the twilight princess i got the day it came out registered fine, but several more recent wii games have expired.

Pain in the arse.

ProjectColossus

My code has just been emailed to me so presumably everyone else should be getting theirs also.

kearneybobs

I never got in on this. I only got one 3DS game over Christmas. Super Mario 3DLand and had already registered my copy of Zelda:OoT. :mad:

readyletsgo

Yay! Just downloaded now! Will give it a whirl when I finish this LAST dungeon in Links Awakening tonight! First Zelda game I will ever complete! Minish Cap is next on my list.

Nollog

Got my code emailed to me, played a bit of it there.
It's pretty fun.
The 3D hurts from the two 3D Classic games I've tried. (excitebike and icarus)
At default 3D settings.

Josey Wales

I'm still waiting on my code.

do I have to click something to get the code? I have 3 games registered with in the time.

If you're logged in to club nintendo, log out.

http://microsite.nintendo-europe.com/games_registration_reward/index.php?locale=en_GB&bcC=HT&bnC=NOE_promotion_3DSreward_home
start there, click "go to club nintendo"

Then use the bigger login majiggy to log in.
It'll eventually load another page, which will show a "You qualify for kid icarus!" image on the right hand side just below "Can we help you?"

Click the image, it should pop up asking you to agree to allow nintendo to send you a code to the email address you enter below and that's all you need to do.

You'll get an email saying you'll get a code, or else the code itself.

The whole log in system at club nintendo is wishy washy, so you wouldn't notice it most of the time unless you use the bigger login thing all the time, but most people would usually use the little majiggy at the top of the page, which doesn't bring you to the same page the big login thingy does.

Thanks for the guide /\/ollog! More people need to see that.

Unfortunately there's no image under my 'can we help you?' section. Will keep an eye on it over the course of the day. Fingers crossed it shows up.

Banjo

Hmmmm... submissions are open until Jan 31st, Resi Revelations is released on 27th and Zavvi have the pre-order deal with the 2nd thumbstick.... that's awfully tight given there are two no-postal-service days in the 4 day delivery and registration window. I'm going to have to buy SMW3D... Oh well, better wash my burgling gloves and swag sack.

gsxr1

got the email saying im getting another email. Cheers for the guide.

You should own it already

Best game on the console so far.

How long did it take to get your code? I'm waiting 2 days now, vurrry impatient.

On a related note I keep seeing this link that I am qualified to enter a contest to win Mario themed 3ds systems, but how do I enter. I NEED THE PEACH ONE!!!

o1s1n

No code here either! I finally got through on the Nintendo website and added my email address but they've yet to send anything out.

Where did you find the page to add your email address? I check my account page and there was no option.

I think it said you're automatically entered into the draw for one. The Mario one looks great.

randomuser77

So, what do people think of it? I finished it yesterday after a combined total of about 3 hours of play. Y'know what, it was actually pretty decent. Speaks volumes for how much gaming has changed though when one of the most disastrous things that can happen in the game is to

get turned into an eggplant.

:P

Have you signed into your account and clicked the Kid Icarus box on the right of the screen?

Confusion about the email thing, you need to click the thing at the right and it'll ask for an email address to send the code to.
It won't use your club nintendo address by default, you have to tell it where to email.

And to enter the draw for the 3ds you need to pick which one you want, I forget how I did that exactly but...

Just read the rules and it says there'd be a banner on the screen after you register the two games. I don't see one yet, even though I did register for Kid Icarus.

Also you can enter up to five times with different sets of eligable games. That's good.

Still waiting on this bloody code!

But I did manage to enter for the Peach 3DS

readyletsgo

Eh, is this promotion not over? I got my code on the day they said it would be sent, the 2nd of Jan or something. Even my mate who is not an Ambassador got his copy of the game on the day too. Reg'd everything on Xmas eve.

o1s1n

I got an email with the following on the 6th -

'Thank you for registering for the Nintendo 3DS Games Registration Reward scheme! We will send you an email with your Download Code for 3D Classics : Kid Icarus within the next few days to this email address, so keep your eyes peeled!'

Nothing after that though. I think I may contact someone.

readyletsgo

Ah well then! Yeah try and give them a call or something. Should have the code by now. Suckz!

Their site says to check your emails on the 5th of January. I registered on the 6th as well, so we'll probably get our codes on the closing date.

It ends the 31st at midnight.
That's your deadline for registering games.
If you registered some games (like I did) before November 20-something, they don't count, which is a bit of a ball in a cup.
