It has been a long time coming, Antipodean Nintendo fans have been hoarding the little Club Nintendo cards that were packaged in Wii and DS products for a long time now – finally they will have somewhere to take advantage of their loyalty.

It is all about collecting stars.  In a way it defines Nintendo, and at last Australasian fans get a chance to cash in their club Nintendo loyalty cards.

Saving up stars for items such as a Nintendo DS Game Wallet, Wii Remote Stand and a handful of other Nintendo items is ready to roll.
