"FREE WAVEBIRD"

Did you know you can get a free Wavebird controller from www.nintendo.co.uk

Well you can and here is how:

Collect 4500 stars

If you do not know what stars are I will explain. Stars a reward points from nintendo. You can get them by registering you console number with that little card you got with it and for games as well.

Here is the official announcement:

Buy and register these three products Super Mario Sunshine, Eternal Darkness AND Starfox Adventures before December 31, 2002 and earn an EXTRA 750 stars*!


Now that you will be earning these extra Stars, Nintendo introduces a number of cool new prizes, starting with the Nintendo GameCube WaveBird Wireless Controller*, which will be available in the Stars Catalogue next week, as well as some other secret surprises!

What are you waiting for?
Become a Nintendo VIP 24:7 member!

* To receive the 750 extra Stars (in addition to the normal 750 stars for buying and registering these products), you have to buy and register all three products before December 31st 2002. You can redeem your stars for prizes in the Stars Catalogue. A Wavebird is worth 4,500 stars. Redemption only as long as as stock lasts. In case the Wavebird will be out of stock, collected stars can be redeemed for other prizes form the Stars Catalogue.

I have about 1,500.

I have 1,765 and soon to be 2765 If i want Starfox. Which to me looks a bit crap. But I will wait till I get your guys vies on it first!

It looks like someone's already done it before, so probably yes.

I have SSBM and have entered the VIP number. Are you aloud to enter your mates VIP number from SSBM if unused?

Isn't Mario Party coming out ... and Wario World?

I think this is great news. I was getting a bit annoyed being 'rewarded' by crappy screensavers and images. This is what I want. Stuff to earn games and peripherals. How many point's d'you reckon Nintendo'll charge for a game? I'll hang on until I have a tonne of points, then get a GBAX free : )

Unless Nintendo have a secret hoard of games coming out before 31st I don't think anyone much is going to qualify anyway.... Already got an Import Wavebird but a second one would be nice :) Hope theres some other stuff to get.

*one, not pone. Obviously.

Hmm... while stocks last...

Probably means they have pone Wavebird, first person to 4,500 points gets it ;-)
