Internet Feature-Related News: New Club Nintendo Rewards, Nintendo Zone getting Pokémon Episodes and Game Demos

Sorry for a lack of news the past couple of days, the combination of business with school and relative lack of Nintendo news meant I didn't update. Well here's some news.

There's some new rewards available at Club Nintendo, both in the form of its traditional knick-nacks and the now-monthly downloadable titles. For only 250 Coins, you can get a 3DS Card Case that can hold 18 3DS/DS cartridges, and has four reversible card covers that features Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and the 3DS itself.

Pretty cool way to carry your games, eh?

Nintendo also has announced the downloadable games available for purchase with coins this month, though there are only two this time: Art Acadamy: First Semester for DSiWare/eShop, and Mario Party 2 from the Nintendo 64 on Wii Virtual Console. Both are 150 Coins, so if you are interested in these games (because I'm not), go get them.

Today Nintendo announced that the 3DS service Nintendo Zone will get a section just for Pokémon, and will get game demos just like the eShop. The feature for the Pokémon section includes full episodes of the famous TV show based on the games. However, you'll only be able to watch episodes at a Nintendo Zone location (which includes, from what I can tell, most if not every McDonald's, Starbucks, and Best Buy in the United States).

You'll get to watch this on your 3DS when you make your morning Starbucks run!

The Nintendo Zone service is pretty cool, and I wasn't expecting my little town like mine to have many hotspots, but it has a full eight, and even more if you count the two towns that border it, which also includes my area's major mall. This news is good and solid, hopefully more like it comes tomorrow!
