Free Kid Icarus AR cards!

How do those work? Can you scan one and have it forever? If so, I could send you mind, you scan it, and send it back.

Aww my copy didn't have it in it. I think someone snagged it.  :'(

Lame!

I assume these work like the other AR cards that come with the 3DS.  There's probably a feature within the game that lets you use the cameras on your 3DS with the cards on a table or something.

I wouldn't be surprised if we could just scan the cards and send them to others to print them up in color and have they do the same thing (much like the question mark AR card that folks scanned and printed huge).

I don't know about anyone else, but I got my e-mail from Club Nintendo that the cards have now shipped. My husband and I are taking bets on which will get here first, the cards or the release-day delivery game.

Hmm, I've not gotten a ship notification for mine. Maybe tomorrow?

[darko]

I ordered some today.

Are we all getting the same 3 freebies or are we getting different sets?

[soera]

I got my mail confirmation notice a few days ago ... as far as what people are getting, my guess its all the same. Im pretty sure the ones ordered through club nintendo are supposed to be ones unavailable any other way.

Good to know, and glad I started up with Club Nintendo last week. If I go through and add all of my codes I'm pretty sure I'll be at the Platinum level. I started out just putting in my 3DS and my 3DS games and I'm already at gold. I need to go through my DS and Wii games I suppose. These things add up pretty quickly.

I just had to double check my order status, I was relieved to see that they are preparing my order. Odd I didn't get a notice about it though.

Also, I'm like 10 coins away from Platinum status! This will be the 1st year I've ever hit it, having only attained Gold the 2 years previous.

Thier point years are different. Instead of calendar year, they go by fiscal year and points dont roll over. So if you arent close yet, better get the points up before July.

[scott]

Ya I'll get it once Kid Icarus arrives.

I'm pretty sure I have enough sitting in my game room to get there in one session.

[soera]

If you have any left over, Im stealing them!

[jcalder8]

I haven't registered any in about a year and a half but I still don't think I have enough to earn Platinum. I'm just not that big a fan of Nintendo and I buy 99.9% of my games second hand anyway.

[soera]

Thats my problem. Most actual Nintendo made games are just platformers and Im not terribly interested in them.
