Mike Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Unless I'm nearing the end of my 12 month period, I doubt I'll convert my stars into Wii Points anyway - I'd rather save them for something special, that you can only get on the Stars Catalogue, rather than something I could just buy with my credit card through the Wii Shop Channel. Granted, we haven't been getting many 'special' things from the catalogue recently, but with the Wii now out, and the scheme being rebranded Club Nintendo, you never know..
AshMat Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 4:1 = Shite Burning out after 12 months = Shite. If this is all true, then thanks, thanks a lot ninty.
DCK Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Frankly I'm surprised they're converting at all. It's not that bad now?
Kurtle Squad Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 I think people wouldn't mind the conversion rate if the VC games weren't such a rip off already.
blender Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 i scratched the stars on my GC TP. Probably ruined its ebay value
ViPeR Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 What about this business of getting stars for VC games? Is that going to translate to getting Wii points? Seems wierd buying a VC title then getting points for it.

ViPeR Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 You don't, you get stars, which you can either spend on Nintencrap or Wii Points. What I mean is when they phase out stars. What will you get for VC games then, nothing?
fanman Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 What I mean is when they phase out stars. What will you get for VC games then, nothing? You won't get anything for anything.
Mokong Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 hold up, i haven't spent a single Star since the GC was release (May 4th 2002), if they bring in this 12 month time limit will this mean all the Stars we currently have older than 12months from when the 12month limit kicks in will be auto removed on the spot? They better get a move on so and give us the Star to Wii Point conversion, i've got over 12000 Stars, and i have no confidence we'll ever see anything decent in the UK&Ireland Star Catalogue, so Wii Points will be the best we could ever hope for, and i want them now so i can get me some free VC games, after 5 years it's about time we got something decent out of this program

Blue_Ninja0 Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 In my country the starts points theoretically do not exist, so i don't get that screen were you link your wii account with the nintendo VIP 24/7 account. Guess i'll have to fake it and change the country to UK or something.
Mr_Master_X2 Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 I've barely spent anything (apart from DS VIP). I just added over 2,000 points (I'd been storing them and couldn't be bothered since there was nothing to buy). I'll probably end up trading them for Wii points.
