Since brernurse posted that offer I looked at the wii U and realized has anyone recieved any eshop credit from buying games online yet through the promotion only avaliable to the 32gb Wii U? Haven't heard anyone talk about it.

I am still annoyed that they never offered the ing ZombiU edition here at launch but they did Europe. I would of bought that, and seeing I have the WiiU, Zombi U but no Pro Controller, I would of loved it.

I have a question, what controller has the best d-pad. Regular Wii U gamepad or Pro Controller? I am figuring out which solution I would rather play Tekken with. Controller or my TvC stick. I don't really like the joystick on the TvC stick, I might need to swap it out sometime.

Well since I won't have my Wii U till Monday (hopefully) I have not yet got any points but I did read this on Nintendo's site about how it works and it appears it is not automatic but requires some doing on your part, so if you have not gotten any you might want to check out this info below from this link: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/sys...atures_ddp.jsp


To participate in the Deluxe Digital Promotion, you will need to complete the following steps:

1. Purchase a Wii U Deluxe Set.

2. Create a Nintendo Network ID on the system.

3. Buy digital games from the Nintendo eShop on Wii U.

4. Sign in to the Deluxe Digital Promotion website with your Nintendo Network ID and password 24 hours after downloading from the Nintendo eShop.

5. Check your Points balance.

For every 500 points, you will receive a code that can be redeemed for $5 in credit in the Nintendo eShop on the Wii U or Nintendo 3DS.

6. When your Points balance reaches 500 or higher, request a download code.

7.Redeem the code in the Nintendo eShop on the Wii U or Nintendo 3DS to add $5 onto your current balance.

If you were a fan of the original, then Bubble Bobble Plus! is a good 600 point game that will round off your total to a nice even number. Some import NES games are 600 as well, such as the Lost Levels.

Right, so I have no ing idea what I used for a password for my Nintendo network ID that I made way back in Nov. and haven't had to enter since. Does anyone remember the restrictions (like alphanumeric only, and min number of characters)? That will help me remember which of my password variants I might have used .

The link for forgetting your password just tells you to recover it on the Wii U. But I don't want to do that since I am currently getting logged in without issue there and don't want to hose that up - so I need to figure it out for the DDP site. I'm guessing the restrictions on password creation must have been a little strange because none of my usual passwords are working.

My Balloon Fight post-play survey is up on Club Nintendo, so I should have an active eShop account. But maybe 30 cents is not enough to make the account active. Anyone else with just a Balloon Fight purchase able to get to the DDP site?

No problem I came across it when I was doing some research on the promotion, as I was considering buying a used system on Craigslist, but luckily I found this deal before going that route much better Deal! I plan to buy all the first party games via digital along with some other games I will likely plan to keep forever, but other games that I will play through once I will be buying via disc, so the 2 year 10% back will add up to be quite the savings!

If you don't figure it out before my console arrives (hopefully Monday or Tuesday) I will be sure to take note as I create mine and let you know.

Everytime I see the ddp.nintendo.com url, I think that Nintendo turned into big wrestling fans and created a Diamond Dallas Page site.

You can say "I Forgot Password" option on the Wii U, reset the password (never went through this myself), but after that in the settings for your NNID account on Wii U you can choose the option to never enter the password and log in automatically on the console.

You can do this the password will be sent to your email associated with your account. I've done this twice since I've forgot my password. Be sure to not to put the wrong password over and over since it will lock you from going online for a while. Not sure how long but it just said try again later.

Apparently it's to address the system crashes. Hopefully that does the trick.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how much of an improvement the spring update does in regards to the UI load times.

Just registered mine and the only restriction was length 6 to 16 characters nothing else was specified.

I was already doing that which is why I forgot my password (I never needed it to log in to the Wii U). But now I need it for the DDP site to check my points. I haven't bothered since I last posted though. All I've bought is Balloon Fight so it's not like I need to check my point balance all that urgently .

Nice, thanks for the info. Wonder if it's because it's so small or because the servers are better/fixed since last one.
