For those who don't know there's also daily and maybe weekly missions you can complete on the switch that the Nintendo switch online app (I think) has to earn platinum points. They have different missions for each game you own if I remember correctly so the more games you have the more opportunity you have to gain points.

Plus it's possible to get it free essentially after buying enough games thanks to the gold coins that are automatically obtained from online purchases and can be claimed manually from physical purchases...

Its not always a guarantee because I believe you can only redeem once per cartridge. The time limit is the biggest inconvenience when it comes to getting the coins, especially for physical collectors Good video overall.

I honestly don't understand why they expire after a year, seems like a cheap way to make sure people can't get the points fairly even if the points were never redeemed. Also another thing I hate is how the silver points expire, I'm not sure about the gold but I lost 800 points in a single day because there was just nothing I could use them on, and then when there is, I have to pay for shipping which is actually way more expensive then it should be.

omg this brings back memories. Before My Nintendo they had Club Nintendo where they used to include a piece of paper in a number of their games with a code to redeem for points and I think eventually you could also get points with digital purchases. My favorite thing I got from Club Nintendo were the Zelda posters for Twilight Princess, Phantom Hourglass, and a poster of the different links from 1987 to 2007

The gold coin thing doesn't work for a lot of games. I think mostly the limited run games maybe? I honestly forget to check half the time, because it seems a lot of games don't work even when used within a year and bought new...

1:25 I knew about this since I bought the switch. One of the reasons I buy new games physical, and I also like to collect them.

I've known about this since day 1 when I bought Breath of the Wild. I've done this with every game I've bought and I've gotten a few games for free, those are always smaller games but I have played all the way through a few games that I otherwise would never have bought or played and had some fun doing so.

That Jackie Chan picture in the background describes your pain for everything you had missed out when figuring out about the silver and gold coins! lol

13:26 me and my cousin were playing pocket camp the other day and also had that problem. They need to make it more obvious that you can scroll down.

I've been doing this for YEARS. The US gets crap stuff compared to Japan, but I do have an Animal Crossing folding fan, Mario pin collection, and a couple keychains. I was owed another pin collection but they ran out and I'm still mad.

I've done the reward thing since I got my Switch in 2018 and I got many games for free while there was a huge sale or something. Like AER: Memories of Old normaly costs €19,99 but it was €1,99 at some sale and I got it for free with the help of the physical games I own. Edit: The Nintendo Switch Online reward system is pretty new tho

I've tried this with *Mario Party Superstars* yesterday, which I bought in November 2021, and it still worked.

When he said NIJJALA!!!!!!!! It was so funny and I love your content😁

This was something that I only knew about because it was part of the 3DS as well. Thank you for spreading this information for people that didn't know this was a thing though. Edit: You get more gold points for games with higher value as well as buying and registering them sooner, I believe it's 200 or 300 at the most (if it's the latter then you just need 20 games registered to get enough points for a free game at full price). :)

@@zephyrias Yeah, it's something I forget to do at times too, it's why I mostly buy my games digitally. It's something Nintendo just needs to do automatically for physical games because...who doesn't want extra money back? XD

I’m still so confused no one knows about this 🤣. I’ve been trying to tell people for years but it goes on deafs ears. Glad wood brought some more awareness to this though I will never not laugh that he didn’t know about this. 😂

It baffles me how can you not explore all the options presented in the menus. Especially when you are a Switch KZreadr:D

My physical games say they're already expired? I just got my switch in April. Does it register a serial code when that's done or is it the date from the game releasing? I bought most of my copies used, I'm not sure if that would affect it

Games are 1 use for the points if you get used games is very normal that like all of them will be already used

I used to do this with all of my Nintendo products with the old version of the program. I'm actually doing this for my new switch. Love free stuff.

I use to love the system with the 3ds and Wii U, I actually got a few decent games from that one… also Xbox gamepass actually has a reward system like you described it’s pretty good

Game pass version came out later, and is 100x better like wtf.

yooo i didn’t know this either!! so cool. ima go home and do all the missions lol and redeem my games

I now just borrow Switch games from the library to collect the gold points 😂

i've been doing this since i got nintendo switch online the reason they added the extra icon is not only for news but for the custom pfp and stuff

Love that I saw this so quickly!

I wish I knew this sooner for my physical games! I still managed to redeem 442 points so thank you for the video 😇

I have a collection of like 100 games and didn't know. Rip 😭

1:25 yes, I've been doing this since my first switch game xD.

Although very unlikely that any of us could win them, some Nintendo games sometimes have tournament events where the top ranking players can win gold points. They still do it with Mario Kart and Splatoon 2.

I just found out that Gold points expire after 1 year. So all the physical games I've claimed gold points on have expired and I didn't even get to spend them on anything

It's not THAT much, but I bought 3 or 4 smaller games in the eshop from my points, a really cool extra that I got out of games I bought anyway.

Thank you finally I got channel talking about Nintendo switch nice one bro

I love what you said about these coins being achievement rewards!
