charging cradle

A number of different-colored 3DS XL charging cradles went live on Club Nintendo yesterday. But just an hour or so after the rewards landed on the site, all five versions sold out.

Many Club Nintendo members were disappointed that they were unable to due to place an order given the limited availability. That begs the question: will the charging cradles ever return?

According to one Nintendo customer service representative, the answer is no. A message from the Nintendo staffer reads:

When Nintendo said the Club Nintendo 3DS XL charging cradles would be limited, they really meant it. All five colors – blue, yellow, white, red, and green – are already unavailable.

The rewards were up for less than an hour before selling out. It’s unclear if additional product will be added to the site in the future.

Club Nintendo members can now use their coins to order a colored 3DS XL charging cradle. The reward comes in blue, yellow, red, white, and green. Each version costs 500 coins.
