This whole Club Nintendo thing is new to us Australian’s and when the shop went live yesterday and accounts were linked up to Club Nintendo many wondered what it did. But now we know! Any purchase (free or otherwise) made on the Nintendo DSi shop now registers on Club Nintendo, you don’t get any points (stars) for the purchase straight away, but may do so later when optional surveys become available. Update: Nintendo Australia has confirmed that you can now link your Wii Shop account to your Club Nintendo account in the stores settings. Pictures inside.
