Personally, I found the Platinum points not very useful.... The Gold points are more valuable as they can be used to buy games. It's ironic that Platinum is less valuable than gold...

I think we're going to need a better explanation about a few of these.

How do you "find" the things you're supposed to find? Do you click on them? Do you have to take some other action?

On the Mario Golf page there is nothing indicating that there is an activity like on the Mario Party and Switch Sports pages.

EDIT: NVM I am blind and stupid.

The answer IS, just find the things and click on em.

Old news...thought this was some new challenges. Not just a recap of what's existed for months/years

These are so useless. You have to pay shipping so nothing is ever worth buying.

Them charging shipping always throws me off. The old reward system they had from years back didn't charge shipping and so it was really fun redeeming my points.

I picked up a cool pouch a year or 2 ago with these new platinum points and was pretty excited about it...until I saw they were going to charge me $5 to ship it to me. I ended up getting it, but paying for it really took the excitement out of it for me.

I'd redeem 800 points for the 3 year Mario Journal they have up right now...but they want $7 to ship that one...and it's just not worth that to me. I'd likely never really use it. If it were truly free I'd be all over it and be excited about it though.

They have some Nintendo swag you can get w/ them, but you have to pay shipping. Best to get multiple items since they charge a flat-rate for shipping.

Yeah, sometimes they have really cool stuff. Was limited to only one of the 8 game card Switch cases, even though I had enough coins for two. That was slightly annoying because shipping is like $7, but I get why Nintendo has purchase limits. If they didn't, there would immediately be some numbnuts buying all the game card cases to flip on eBay.

Charges for shipping and tax on shipping when trying to redeem Platinum coins.
I live in SoCal 😞

If you're looking for a use for Platinum Points and are a Nintendo Switch Online member, they have limited time icons that you can buy with them. They're basically customizable icons to use as your profile image on the Switch.

Right now, they are featuring Mario Strikers (https://twitter.com/NintendoAmeri...2141121552).

Here are the directions from Nintendo on how to use them:

In the old reward system you're referring to, the points came from one time use codes in DS and Wii games. The new system doesn't require you to buy anything to gain Platinum points and you can still stack up points and redeem multiple rewards in one shipment, so it's not all that bad. In both cases, nothing was ever truly free and likely never will be

You'd be surprised at the average age of gamers on nintendo: https://www.shacknews.com/article...first-time

Of course its nice to have something for kids, but it would be nice if they didn't limit themselves to that group, as it's not even close to being the majority.

Why are people excited about platinum coins? They're only good for wallpaper downloads and rarely a promotional in-game item. We got 1000 platinum for a promotion at the San Diego Zoo last year and when we got home realized there was nothing we wanted to use them on. Am I missing something? Genuine question.

We did receive nice animal crossing bags from the Zoo event, but that was not related to platinum coins.

Same. Every time I look at the stuff available, there's never anything I would want enough to warrant paying for shipping.

Physical rewards (what most people use these points on). Link above. Tip: Order multiple items to save on shipping costs (single flat rate regardless of how many items you order).
