There are two ways to deal with this little problem: The Nintendo Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System is definitely a pretty neat device, but it has a major flaw: the cable of its controllers is quite short… way too short for the majority of users (though it’s not nearly as bad as the Nintendo Classic Mini: Family Computer!).

We can definitely expect the Nintendo Switch and its games to come with serial codes for My Nintendo in the future, too. Therefore, the Nintendo Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System is the very first physical product you will be able to register on My Nintendo. There is currently no way to register physical products (games, consoles), though you can register serial codes to get coins.

This is a pretty big deal, as right now, the only way to get coins in My Nintendo is to play Nintendo games / use Nintendo services, or buy games from the Nintendo eShop. It’s probably safe to assume that European units will also come with one.Īlso in the #NESClassicEdition box: a Point Code to get some My Nintendo points. We assumed that this would be a code used to register the console on My Nintendo, and get some Gold Coins as a reward, and it looks like we were spot on.īut what we didn’t know was whether the Nintendo Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System (in Europe and North America) would also include that serial code, and the answer is… yes! Thanks to the Twitter account of the Nintendo Force magazine, we have the confirmation North American units will include a serial code. Back when Nintendo announced the Nintendo Classic Mini: Family Computer for Japan, we reported that the console would come with a “My Nintendo number ticket”.
