Club Nintendo with Oscar Bown, Nintendo World Championships

Author Oscar Bown joins to chat about Club Nintendo, the rewards program that was the predecessor to My Nintendo which featured dozens of amazing, one of a kind items. We explore the history of Club Nintendo, talk about the weirdest rewards, and dig into our guest’s upcoming book featuring every single Club Nintendo item! In the games section, I aim for the top with Nintendo World Championships. Plus some news including new games and happenings in Tokyo!
