The Nintendo of Europe shop is everything the the Nintendo of America shop isnt. It sells new consoles, nintendo merch, games, not just repairs, refurbished stuff, and manuals. Why is it like this?

Reggie must not be fond of Mature rated games. We rarely ever see any 1st party M-rated games nowadays, but I don't really care about that, as I don't really like playing M-rated games myself.

I thought Reggie was just a guy from NoA, didnt know he was president. Well yes, he is a ****ty president. NoA store doesnt even sell games. or NEW systems. Step it up, plese.
Even the NoA Club Nintendo. Terrible.

Don't get me started on the eShop, I'm not kidding, all of the first party launch titles are still worth $60 (WTF?) and the sales are horrible in North America. Oddly enough most Wii U owners come from the US, so why WE'RE getting the ****ty deals I don't know. I mean "The Letter"? Really, someone thought that awful game was worthy of free advertising and a sale price from Nintendo?

I will admit that Club Nintendo really has gone downhill with the reward options. I had coins that were expiring, but there was absolutely nothing that I wanted that I could use the coins for.
Atleast I got the Hanafuda Cards before they were cut

Well, I think Reggie is just kinda outdated. However, he is a great salesman and businessman. He has a way with his words to reach the people. He could have sold a second Wii U to me through what he has sad in Nintendo Directs. The problem with that is that only Nintendo Fans watch those Directs, and many already have a system.

I have 580 coins on there. You know what I can get? Literal ****.
Well, to prevent mods from locking this due to it slowly becoming a complaining thread, let's discuss what Nintendo could do to fix all of the mentioned problems.

Wii U game digital downloads as prices, as it is all the games on there can be downloaded from Wii Mode, Wii U for really cheap and Wii U games used (and First Party) are generally overpriced at retailers, even small time ones like Second and Charles, Your locally owned Gamestore and of course Gamestop.
Better physical prizes: Bring back the Updated Game and Watch machine that was available a couple years ago

Well, to fix Club Nintendo, give some actual physical rewards! I mean, the Soundtrack is a good start, but it needs to develop into a NoJ. That is really my only complaint. And if they are digital rewards, at least make them Club Nintendo Platinum Reward Exclusive!
They had digital games as Platinum Exclusive rewards. Most people didn't like it.

I think this is partly due to the game choices that you're given. I never owned Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D before the rewards were revealed, so at least the reward options weren't a total loss on my end.

You misunderstood. I said Exclusive. Meaning, no one else can get them except Platinum members. But, anyone could buy those games.

Probably not a big issue for most eshopers, but I wish NoA could accept American express instead of just Visa and Mastercard as payments... >_>

not just talking about eshop, talking the the websites in general. such as nintendo.com (american) and nintendo-europe.com (european) are super different.
