Sure, we may have awesome blue jeans and universal health care, plus some of the best breasts the world has ever seen, but what we don't have is a marginally acceptable customer loyalty program along the lines of Club Nintendo. Oh, Japanese game buying public, how I covet thee.
The latest and greatest goods from Nintendo Japan are pictured above and include (left to right, top to bottom) Link and Mario notepads, Animal Crossing tape, Mario (and Wario!) hanafuda cards, tiny Mario washcloths/batchrags, DS game and stylus holder with a fruity rainbow of styli, Nintendo DS pouches, Club Nintendo bookend-style DS game rack, the highly desirable Game & Watch Collection (containing Oil Panic, Greenhouse, and Donkey Kong) and Animal Crossing playing cards. Every single item is a delicious slice of awesome, when you're a die hard Nintendo fan. Like me.
Anyone wanna hook a weekend editor up with that DS pouch? Anyone?!
