Nintendo of Europe has relaunched their website (www.nintendo-europe.com) with a fresh coat of paint and a bang, confirming the eagerly awaited return of the Stars Catalogue and introducing the Wii Points Card Shop.

If you are a Club Nintendo member, the Stars Catalogue enables you to trade the Stars you earn when you register products for “exciting goodies.” New to the site is the Wii Points Card Shop where you can trade Stars for Wii Points Cards which you can use to purchase Virtual Console games and Wii software in the Wii Shop Channel. One Wii Point will cost you four star points.

Simply enter the code contained in the Wii Points Card in the Wii Shop Channel and Wii Points will be loaded to your Wii Shop Channel account. Before you can use the Wii Points Card Shop you will need to link your Club Nintendo account to your Wii Shop Channel account.

To link your Club Nintendo account to your Wii Shop Channel account, go to the Wii Shop Channel and select ‘Start Shopping,’ then ‘Settings’ where you will point the Wii Remote at the Club Nintendo logo and press ‘A.’ Enter the details of your Club Nintendo account (email address and password) and select ‘Link’ before selecting ‘OK’ once a confirmation message is displayed.

After logging in, choose the Wii Points Card denomination you want and press ‘Purchase’ to receive your Wii Points Card code. Only two Wii Points Cards can be purchased per day per person.
