Today I finally received by Nintendo-branded Hanafuda Cards from the Club Nintendo loyalty program.
It cost me 800 coins to "earn" this reward. For reference, the purchase of a new Wii game gives you 50 coins. I was lucky that Nintendo lets customers retroactively collect coins from before the Club Nintendo loyalty program launch or else I would have needed to buy 16 Wii games just to earn 800 coins. The cards are technically worth a whopping $800 (800 coins x Wii game/50 coins x $50/Wii game = $800).
I thought the cards would be made of cheap cardboard but they are actually made of plastic. Either way its a great collector's item.
