Europe’s Club Nintendo has introduced one final item before the service shuts down for good.
The commemorative Goodbye Coin, pictured below, comes inside of a drawstring pouch that essentially says “thanks” in Japanese. One side of the coin features Mario and Luigi waving goodbye with “thank you” written in Japanese on one side; the other side features the Club Nintendo logo. The coin is silver-plated and has a diameter of about 40mm (1.57 inches) and is approximately 3mm (.12 inches) thick.
The coin is priced at 2000 stars, roughly the same price as a digital copy of Super Mario World or Super Mario Kart. Of course, you’ll need to have not already spent your stars (Europe’s equivalent of the coins used by North America’s now-defunct service) ahead of the service’s shutdown. Europeans have until the end of September to order their rewards.
Nintendo announced plans to kill Club Nintendo earlier this year. It’s set to be replaced by a new rewards service of some sort that will cover 3DS, Wii U, smart devices, PCs, and Nintendo’s next system, NX, though we’ve yet to hear any further specifics beyond that.
