Um... what?

So. For the first time, I qualified for Club Nintendo's "elite status" gift for this year. In the past, the awards have been amazing. Among other things, there was a velvety life-size, wearable replica of Mario's hat, and a cool looking figurine of the main cast.

This year's prize is pins. Like, little 1"x1" pins that you'd buy at Hot Topic if you were a derpy twelve year old boy.

Thanks, Nintendo. $500+ dollars worth of registered merchandise, and you give me shit I can buy on Etsy for three bucks. u____u

Edit: These could have been 1000x more amazing if they were metal die-cut pins. That would be more than acceptable to me. This is stuff you can make in your basement on the cheap, and they look cheap. :c

That is kind of disappointing :( I was expecting something awesome after those first two gifts.

Me too! And this was my first and probably only year to achieve the elite status. I cashed in all my GameCube, DS, Wii game registrations + consoles from over the years into my 2011 account. D:
