Nikki, known for her appearance in the terminated 3DS application Swapnote, will soon be starring in her own game.

As part of today’s Club Nintendo discontinuation announcement, it was revealed that members of the rewards program in Japan will be able to access “Nikki’s Travel Quiz” for 80 points.

Specific details about the title were not shared. It’s currently unknown when Nikki’s Travel Quiz will release, and if it will come to North America and/or Europe.

Due to Twitch’s auto-play, we’re placing this one after the break.

Buy is running a deal on the Super Mario 3D World Deluxe Set via eBay. Consumers can purchase the console for only $270, which also includes a copy of Nintendo Land.

This deal is valid through the next week. Keep in mind however that supply is apparently limited.

Last year, Nintendo offered digital-only rewards on Club Nintendo for those who reached Elite Status (Platinum/Gold Status). This was quite a big change since, in the past, we saw gifts like a figurine, Majora’s Mask soundtrack, and more.

It’s looking like the 2015 Elite Status rewards will once again be digital-only. With the closure of Club Nintendo on the horizon, I suppose it’s not entirely surprising.

Check out this blurb from the official Club Nintendo discontinuation notice:

In order to reach Elite Status, you must earn 300 Coins (for Gold Status) or 600 Coins (for Platinum Status) between July 1, 2014 and March 31, 2015. Members who reach Elite Status will be able to choose a downloadable game from a wide selection of Nintendo 3DS and Wii U titles. Your free Elite Status gift will be available between April 1 and April 30, 2015. A list of the Elite Status 2015 gifts will be posted here once announced.

Does the image above look familiar? It should. We posted something like it yesterday. There is now one major change though: the text on top says “Games coming for Nintendo 3DS” as opposed to “Games coming in 2015 on Nintendo 3DS”.

If you missed out on our original story, the image comes from a Nintendo of Australia email, which was reissued today since “there was an error in the listed release dates of Nintendo 3DS titles.” Unfortunately, that means Fire Emblem isn’t confirmed for a 2015 launch in the west after all. I’d still say it’s very possible that it happens, but we no longer have a “confirmation”.
