I mean, holding the Wiimote NES-style is the proper way to play this, so I'm good. But would the Internet be the Internet if I didn't find something about this free bonus perk to complain about? #punchout
Club Nintendo isn't free. They cheaply compensate you for your opinions of games. It's market research. They get a bunch for free, and I get a calendar that is the size of a large index card. #punchout
@Booji-Boy: What's devil's advocate? The service IS free. You buy the game you would've bought anyway, and get crap you wouldn't have gotten originally at no additional charge.
Seriously, with mentality's such as yours and YoHenYo then nothing is free because the costs of keeping yourself alive to enjoy any of it is pretty damn high. #punchout
@YoHenYo: There's more to Club Nintendo than the yearly rewards based on tier. You get points for stuff like unique DS games and cutesy stuff like Mario hat shelves for holding games. Yeah, its consumer marketing with all the polls, but at least its better than filling in postcard questionnaires to register games and never see anything for it like in the past.
The hat they sent out doesn't look like the one that was shown when choosing prizes... It's the (technically wearable) plush hat that used to be on the Japanese Club Nintendo. #punchout
I got the Mario hat instead. And when I wore it and put my Scribblenauts rooster hat on top of it, the President called me on the phone to tell me that I'm the most awesome person ever. They're doing a parade about me this Thursday. #punchout
@demigod4: I just got a call from the President again, he's revoking my "most awesome person ever" status for posting two slightly different messages because I thought the first one didn't get through because Firefox crashed... #punchout
"Controversy tonight as our LIBERAL president, Mr. Obama, SLIGHTED a VALUABLE, AMERICAN Kotaku poster of his status of 'Most Awesome Person Ever.'
demigod4, admired PATRIOT, was outraged and in-tears after the president pulled a switcharoo on what he thought was the greatest day of his life.
'I was going to have a parade,' said this brave warrior of TRUTH. 'There were going to be clowns, elephants, obese men on motorcycles. I was ever so thrilled.'
Unfortunately for demigod4, BETRAYAL, LIES and BROKEN PROMISES are what he will witness stroll down Pennsylvania Avenue. The ring leader? PRESIDENT OBAMA.
We here at Fox News, purveyors of everything that is RIGHT, will see to it that a parade worthy of such a NATIONALISTIC HERO occurs right after these commercial messages."
(oh god, please don't kill me, this is a JOKE, not a shoot. brother.) #punchout

I've got my hat already. I don't think I'll ever wear it, but considering how long it's taken for them to send out what's essentially a DEMO for a game that came out months ago, I think I'm happy with my choice. #punchout
@Archaotic: I got the hat as well (yesterday) and it does look rather comical on a human head. It's like I'm wearing a train conductor's hat with how high it pops up. #punchout

Thanks for the reminder, and the help with making my decision. I don't really care about either prize, but the thought of putting the Mario hat on my cat and taking a picture while he stares at me angrily seals the deal!

Gamers:Why the f.... isn't Club Nintendo over here? We want rewards for buying games!
Nintendo:It's a lot easier to do this sort of thing in Japan but we'll see..
Gamers:No excuses, do it now!
Nintendo:Okey, here's Club Nintendo for the US. Now some of the prizes aren't going to be the same...
Gamers:WTF? THESE PRIZES SUCK. WE DEMAND PROPER TAINT TICKLING FOR GAMES WE BOUGHT WAY BEFORE CLUB NINTENDO WAS EVEN ANNOUNCED!
Nintendo: .... #punchout

Should probably get the major developers on the line so they don't waste any more time and resources on DLC. #punchout
