  1. Interestingly though, the original note said “we’re currently arranging some technical modifications. †- and with the laziness of them, I wouldn’t put it past them to just be ARRANGING them, and not actually doing any.

    Pity that it seems it must have just been cleaning up and general maintinance, and not the hoped for and promised by the guy from NOE features of VIP24:7 accounts being intergrated with Wi-Fi codes, which is currently done on the US one.

    Hey, isn’t that Wi-Fi EU site a LITTLE overdue?


  2. Really? I've seen alot better stuff on the Belgium site. Well, one of the 2 Belgium sites. Confusing that is.

    You once had these cool DS bags, lots of Metroid demos, there was as you said Nintendogs before launch, tshirts.... If you're not too happy yourself, write to whoever distributes Nintendo stars items there. Maybe start you own campaign?

     

    And so, I've written up my article at the site I work at, if you could spread this around, and get writing we can get campaigning!

  3. GUESS WHAT? I GOT A REPLY!

     

    It's very short, and they said that the UK Stars Catalouge is very young compared to other countries.

    ANSWER: What the hell? Europe launched the Stars Catalouge at the same time, didn't they? Why would some countries, especially one of the biggest ones for sales, not have it last? Though I do agree, the decent updates are young.

     

    The stock that is placed on the catalogue is always of a good quality, and we are always looking to place on items we feel people will want to exchange for their stars.

    ANSWER: Uh. huh. Stock clearance, and unshipped rental copies of games.

     

    Unfortunately, some items of stock do tend to dissapear very quickly.

    ANSWER: Gonna agree with you here, as the UK is like the cookie monster, but only with merchandice. "MERCHYMERCHYMERCHYMERCHY!"

     

    I did not get answers to why:

    1) They shipped out rental copies of 1080 Avalanche

    2) Where Nintendo UK's allocation of Nintendogs promo materials went

    3) WHY we don't get good stuff.


  4. Alright, I've sent my long email off. I should get a responce tomorrow, then I'm gonna be starting a snail mail campaign. Worked for Dreamcast games, and I think if we send mail to Nintendo UK and Codestorm (handles stars cat) we can do something. Snail mail = real life mail.


  5. Argh! I've got all of those registered, unless Nintendogs isn't lab version (they MIGHT be version specific - might not be).

     

    No more controllers, I have the Memory card case and I need 1000! THIS SUCKS! There's only about 20 VIP games I haven't registered.


  6. Gift: Should of been a lightweight, small 40/50 page book with a double page on each game, with a few extra pages with a timeline/history.

    Cover: Totally messed up. Revolution should of taken it up, with a sleek stylish cover. With just the revolution. None of the clutter.

    Main feature: Come on, Mario Football surely could have been a second main feature/review, the Revolution information was terrible. They didn't even go in depth in their playtest! SURELY that's a "WOW DOUBLE PAGE" thing.

    Pokedex: Waaaaaaste. I do like the idea of a monthly middle feature like this/comic book info, but just find something decent.

    Next Month's Gift: A 1 cart DS game holder. Abloodymazing. Oh, and a hint book. How about a Mario 20 CD made in a style to fit in with the booklet. Or maybe a Mario Kart wriststrap! Stylus (yeahlikethey'ddothat)! Maybe even some fusking decals! Ok, the 1 cart holder thing is decent, but it's like, ONE cart. Bleh.

    DS Motherload: This month we had the GREATEST DS LINE UP ANNOUNCED AT THE WIFI CONFERENCE and probably, about 3 of them will be featured in half page world of nintendo segments - NEXT month. Blehgnstuff.
