Register your Nintendo products (via the PIN code in the case) and earn points. You can get some free stuff, such as rare DS games and little Nintendo trinkets.

Reminds me of Kool-Aid points. Good ol' times.

If I understood this correctly, then my family's eligible to get a ton of that free stuff.

I've got a huge stack of DS games to register, but the site is unbearably slow and keeps booting me. Guess I'll wait until later.

I can register 660 points, and I will be able to get the G&W collection very shortly if the site doesn't keep glitching on me. The game's supposed to be rare, so I guess it's worth it.

Fuck this.

I sign up, yet every time I try to login, it tells me my username and password don't match. It doesn't matter if I use either the username or the forum display name. So I use the password reset feature, change it, and it still won't work. To hell with this.

...then it suddenly decides to work after loading for twenty seconds. You guys weren't kidding.

I'm having the exact same problems. Glad to see I'm not alone.... I thought it might've been due to excessive traffic, but it doesn't look like it. Lack of reliability is usually not Nintendo's trademark.

And after I did successfully log in, I went to enter a serial number and the moment I clicked to register it, I get booted back to the login screen.

So, yeah, fuck this. I'm not going to spend upwards of a minute repeatedly sitting there while the thing loads, not knowing if it'll go through or it won't.

Everything seems to be working fine now, except for the part where you get booted out of your account every five minutes.

Edit: Started acting up again, but at least I can register my games without completely losing my patience - which was already roughly tested by my latest LP video (which I'll upload tomorrow, before you ask).
