hi
i was first
Yes
Lol
@@jmariotorto6067 no you werent
I didn't know that the points were not common knowledge. I've done all of the little missions to get the silver points. I think the thing that annoys me the most though is that the silver and gold points have expiration dates and they are always short so you need to use them before they expire so they aren't as nice/useful as they could be
I think 6 months to a year is pretty reasonable. Now that I have a switch my gold coins never have a chance to expire but my platinum points were always in danger. Now with the icons at least they won't expire.
I didn't know they expire and lost over half of my platinum points
It is common knowledge. Woody is below common knowledge.
@@tinahoefs1455 as someone who doesn't buy things very often and likes to save up, it kind of bums me out that I can't save up my gold points for future use. I have to use em or lose em asap.
What?! They expire?!
An achievement system is definitely something Nintendo is missing would make playing games so much more grindy
true
yeah, it does feel like they went with this system instead to make it less obvious and hoping it would make them more money ? who knows if it helped ? on one hand, many people have not used their gold points, on the other hand, without an obvious reward system, people now have the idea that nintendo is greedy and games are expensive which have lead to people getting less games on the nintendo.
i personally believe nintendo have missed out on a lot of customers and just sales in general by not having an easy to understand and rewarding system.
I'm glad they don't, I got Xbox achievement burnout after playing too many games way past the point of actually having fun just to get them.
@@Foshfongers it’s a personal choice dawg
@@sharkattack6670some people are completionists, I think this style fits nintendo’s target audience, and play style perfectly. Play the game to play the game, nothing else
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.
Lol just bought stardew valley today!!!
that means waiting more months just for a 7 day free trial of nintendo switch online, WHY DOES NSO EXIST
@@Simurated honestly for an online service it's really not that expensive compared to PlayStation and Xbox that are literally the same price for 1-2 months that Nintendo charged for a year of online service. 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... There's also the rewards that can be earned from the silver coins I already mentioned in the original comment, but I'm not even sure Nintendo online subscription is even required to earn them.
Where do you find them?
@@lcxiicx_5319 the gold coins? When you're at the payment method page while checking out there should be a link that says "use points for a discount" on top of the payment method... Pretty sure Wood showed how to claim the gold coins for the physical games purchased, but just to give a second explanation insert the cart into the console, open up the game menu on the home page (press the plus button while the game is highlighted), scroll down to the "my Nintendo rewards" section, and then press the button that says it's for redeeming gold points for the game.
I've been doing it since I got my first Switch at least a few years back. Although I don't have nearly as many physical games as you have... you probably earned more with one year's worth of games than I have my entire time. Still, you have my sympathy.
I've been collecting points since the Wii. They've had this rewards system for a really long time. I remember getting a 3 poster set from the Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword release back in 2011, still sealed lol
ua-cam.com/video/dnxzjdYNqaI/v-deo.html 😱 coffee
I have a Zelda 3DS multi cart case from Club Nintendo. I still use it
The issue is don't the points expire? I read that they expire after a year
Damn lucky
Now u tell us! 🤣
The catch is It’s free if you have enough points 😂
Jesus Christ loves you ❤
Yes and to get points money must be spent.😂
Lol yes
And they charge shipping worth double the points you spend😢
Fax
By the way, even if you have the platinum points to get something physical, you have to pay a shipping price that’s usually way more than the item you buy.
How much? 🫤
@@cristinafitzgerald7993 like $6+
@@TheMysteryDriver that's not too bad? Some sites are worse, especially when ordering from abroad
A way to get free shipping would be nice though
@@YurimoHikashi they could just build it into the price of the platinum coins. But at worst they could let you pay with gold coins.
So not free.
Especially when you aren't using dollars.
If I have to pay shipping it automatically stops being free.
You have to play for the online service, but it’s cool they give you a chance to make something out of it.
title is clickbait asf bro.
alt title: “how to turn physical switch games into eshop points”
AGREED, DEFINITELY BS CLICKBAIT VIDEO, GET ANY FREE GAME ON NINTENDO STORE... NOT!!!
The Gaming man its not clickbait its been a Nintendo feature for a while
@@donnaedwards7695 yes indeed it is click bait
the title implys you can get any switch game for free with no pre requisites, when in reality, you need to have purchased hundreds of dollars worth of games to even afford enough to purchase 1 small title. click. bait.
Agree
@Moe's vlogging channel which is not mentioned in the title “how to get any switch game free” therefore click bait
I’ve been doing this for so long. I thought it was common knowledge! This is a great video for people who didn’t know.
does it really work?
Lol same
Now it’s way too late I have 8 games and al of them are gone
Me too
Same, it is common knowledge!
Clickbait title.
No
Yes

not a clickbait title
Important things: Only from a year from retail release, BUT lots of smaller print games will often have region coding from other regions. I know it's region free but that's still coded. I have a ton of games that either said I couldn't redeem in my region OR I couldn't redeem "yet" which ends up never at all.
Retail release only? Does that mean if I got a game released quite some years ago, I won't be able to get it?
@@jierenzheng7670Yup. 1 year in most of the world, 2 years in the EU.
I.e. if you brought a new physical copy of Pokémon Shield you wouldn’t be able to redeem the points because the game was released four years ago.
If you brought a physical copy for pokémon Scarlet you would be able to redeem gold points until 18th Nov 2023, or 18th Nov 2024 if you’re in the EU
Note: only applicable for new copies, if you buy second hand you’ll only be able to redeem gold points if the previous person who owned it didn’t redeem them as it’s tied to the cartridge, not the console.
note 2: Only works for cartridges. If you had a digital download that came in a case you can’t redeem that.
@@jierenzheng7670Exactly. It's a ripoff!
I actually knew about this because when I got my switch as a birthday present in 2020 I also got a used copy of Mario Kart with it, and I saw the "Options" icon on the home menu and took a look because I wanted to absorb as much of this new gaming experience as I could. Saw it there in that menu
Pretty much same here. I just don't see how someone would NOT manage to at least ACCIDENTALLY stumble upon it quite early.
@@CaptainSnowflake only happened to me once but I agree. 😁
Right! Do you people not dig into your tech at all? Maybe it was because I've always been poor but when I get my hands on something new I'm looking through every inch of the device I can for unique features (which is how I found out about the program).
@@Solaceon that! I cannot fathom how ppl can own smth but don't explore it. Some people don't even know that they can change button mappings independently from games within the system settings.
I thought everyone knew this but glad you are getting that info out for those that don’t know.
It was obvious for me
Same
same lmao, always knew about this
Glad to see he's excited... I feel like those of us that have known about it are just waiting for it to get better and include more Switch rewards. But it still keeps me coming back trying to spend my expiring platinum coins when there's nothing left to spend them on.
Imagine his disappointment when he realizes Physical Rewards aren't free, because you have to pay shipping. That's what I thought he paused about at the beginning. Lol!
Same. I love Wood's content regardless of who it's directed to, though. Been around since his 100k subs days. Excellent creator.
I remember i found this out when i work at gamestop back when the switch came out. I highly recommend people do it for any new games they buy and check the pre-owned ones you buy as well. 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 am really happy that this video is up since most people unfortunately do not know about it. Thank you so much! ☺️ Also, I LOVE your content! Been watching for years now!
Side Note: You can only redeem the points if it’s been shorter than a year of the GAMES CARTIRIDE RELEASE so if you have Zelda and you haven’t redeemed the points, you can’t get the points anymore. Hope this helps🤗
That’s so not cool. There’s lots of people like me who didn’t know that, and could have gotten tons of points off m older games…. Now I can’t redeem any of them. The only game I was able to redeem points from was my Mario party superstars game… this sucks!!
incorrect its a year since each cartridge first got "printed" so if newly made it will be points BUT older copies even if sealed wont
give points
yeah, when I buy mario kart few months ago and I was want get points I got information that was expired
@@OrionBdg that’s because the actual game came out a few years ago it isn’t when you buy it
yep, and it's only for phsysical games, so if I'm correct, digital games never expire, and they give 5% back instead of 1%
Finally, FINALLY, a video that told why the heck I couldn't redeem points with my physical game even thought it was even sealed with plastic and all that.... it was because my game is more than 1 year old so now nintendo gives NOTHING for it....
Buddy, AFTER the game has been released and after a year, you don't get any points, not after you open the seal before a year passes
I'm new to Nintendo switch,and I'm so glad I'm learning all the tips and tricks now rather than years later. Thanks Bucky.
I had no idea... and I'm a physical game collector 😫 Thank you for shedding light on this, I managed to redeem 3 games, the only ones not expired for the rewards. Definitely doing this from now on 😶
Same, I've had Smash ultimate for 2 years and Animal Crossing New Horizons for 1 year, I got Kirby and the forgotten land yesterday, I feel so stupid I've never done this.
First thing I do when I get a new physical game.. redeem them gold points. 😁
I knew abt it 2hen I first got the switch. Do your research.
All of mine are expired 😔
@@lala_44427 same ;(
I did a lot of that in the past for testing themes and some select free virtual console games on my 3ds way back when lol those rewards were constantly changing, themes were a lot more common and the virtual convoluted games very rare 500-1000 platinum points rewards
Great video! Also just noticed your PO Box is near my fam's in Crowley where I spend time when I'm not flying around the US, hello sort of neighbor xD
this was awesome to learn! i just got three free merch items and i’m so excited. you do have to pay shipping though, so i paid about $8. but considering nintendo items are notoriously expensive i’m very happy! thank you for the great video
I think that achievement for rewards thing was supposed to be implemented into Xbox originally (for avatars & wallpaper and more), but it turns out achievements by themselves made people play them anyway, so there wasn't a need to reward people.
Actually, you the achievements have some art in the achievement tab. And you can get to have them as a wallpaper for your home screen. It's pretty cool
lol have you ever seen that one weird dude online who likes breakdancing and was obsessed with "cheevos" (achievements) and having the highest xbox gamer score? like.. so obsessed that it was his pickup line. Even tried to make a documentary about it and everything! He's got his own youtube channel; I can't remember his name but you should look it up it's absolutely hysterical. And REALLY hard to believe he isn't a troll, (but it is indeed real!)
It's always fun seeing people discover this fun little program Nintendo has. Thanks for sharing the info with others who weren't aware on what they were missing out on
Then why didn't you tell any of us!? Huh!? Hahah 😂
I didn’t know you could get rewards from the cartridge games.
That’s pretty cool.
I’ve been doing the game redemption since launch and I’ve been doing the platinum stuff recently. I actually started Fire Emblem Heroes, Mario Home Run and ACPC just to get points for the platinum profile rewards on the switch system
This was an authentic *Wood* *Learning* *Experience!*
I found out from that same reddit post.... a year ago haha. I still missed like 4-5 games worth, and forget to do new games some times... gonna go do Arceus now. Wish it was an automatic claim!
I understand the shipping cost I guess. I don’t like having to go find stuff on websites to get my Zelda acrylic panel though lol
Oh, I did the coins for the acrylic panel too!

This is what happens when you explore menus lmao. I've had my switch for 3 days, and I own 0 physical copies of games and I still know about this because I clicked through all the menus. First thing I do when I get a new piece of tech is explore every corner of every menu and everyone should do the same lmao
Wow! Thanks for the great info! One question. Can you redeem the Nintendo products with Platinum points and have it ship internationally?
The game card case is pretty useful imo. Been good for when I've been going away for a few days and need to take a few games with me
I just store them in the Nintendo switch case. The official one has pockets for game cards
I like the reward system lol. Sure the expiration sucks, and the conversion may not be the greatest, but I use them for dlc’s lol. Pretty much a huge amount of my paid dlc’s on all my games are free because of the reward system 😂
Smart
I know I'm late to this video but this is my all time favorite of yours. It's freaking hilarious! New subscriber.
Wow I didn't know about this thanks Wood definitely going to check it out
Bro thumbnail is a little bit clickbait. You put free download on every single game... other than that it's a very good and creative video. I know I'm not a UA-camr so who gives a crap about my opinion. Really just wanted to point that out
been a long time ♥ hope you are awesome! glad to see you stilll strong and happy!
You are the best this helped me all lot thanks man I will try to share this with all my friends thanks!!
ive literally learned about it yesterday and today i see your video lol
I actually knew about this because when I first got my switch "about a year ago" my friend who had a switch since launch day told me about it, the catch is if you buy an old copy of the game, even if it's brand new the gold coins have already expired which has happened to me a couple of times when I bought them from Amazon. 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.
Yea I think the year expiration thing is lame. It should only not count if someone's already turned in the coins.
Gold expires as well.
@@paynomorethanzero thats even worse concidering you can only get them with real money
@@diamondbluebook iirc, silver points expire after 6 months and gold points after a year. There's a mention of it on My Nintendo's website
@@evelyne1307 The system of expiration starts when you first get your Gold Reward? Or from January to December?
Those points go away after a time. There's also a time limit to getting the points from the game. You also pay shipping...
I just bought a Switch Lite and never used it before. Glad I found this channel for this old man to learn stuff. Thanks.
The "Nintendo giveth and Nintendo taketh away" had so much feels. I can't express how much I relate to this video.
An excellent and fun video from such a simple idea, good job Wood!!
Wood, another thing that you seemed to have missed as well that saves you money since you buy alot of digital titles is to change your zipcode to one in a state that doesnt charge sales tax like a city in oregon for example then you wont be charged for sales tax on your digital titles. You could have saved maybe hundreds of dollars
Probably can't encourage that because I'm pretty sure that's literal tax fraud
... by also commiting tax fraud...
I dont believe the eshop charges sales tax
@@rakku4004 they have to. otherwise it would be tax fraud.
@@dagstar84 you sure know a lot about tax fraud
I knew this but I almost never buy games within 1 year of release date. Those 50% off sales are worth way more than the gold points
Thanks for the video I never knew you could even do this I would definitely try this in the future
I recently had to do this after they announced the eshop closing. Needed that Twilight Princess picross for my DS.
I love the Gold Points, bought so many indie Games with them where I wasnt sure if it would be worth it. That you could turn your physical copies into points I knew but I also lost a good amount because I was too late with them.
Bro i just watched this and went thru all my games and got lot of points love the channel and this video was so awesome thanks!!!!
Really humble from Axl Rose to tell us how to get free stuff from Nintendo, a true legend.
huh? That stuff is common knowledge. Even the Wii had a bonus programme, a better one even.
When those posters where announced I did exactly what you did to get them and it was completely worth it. Only had to pay 8 bucks shipping
I didn’t think it was unknown! I’ve gotten things for a couple years! If you keep going in week after week, you get another 30 platinum points! They rack up super fast when you’re not thinking about it. I love it. So much fun and cool toys. They do expire after a year though, so be careful.
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
I knew that the first day I had my NS.your so funny,love watching you!
I have been collecting points on physical games since 2017, launch year, now with weekly Missions and Rewards on Switch I’m earning even more. Its great!
I've been doing this for ages, it's cool to get the posters and keyrings and other stuff.
All of my games are passed their expiration date😭
Same
I just had a game and it says is expired:(((((
I have one in date
@@Guywithweaponry lucky
Thanks for your public service announcement! I only recently bought a Switch for TotK so I don't feel like I missed out, although I have also recently bought some other Switch games that were released more than a year ago. Oh well, I want to play those games anyway - would be silly to limit myself to 1yo games only... 🤣
Also, I wasn't too sure about the Metroid poster but when you opened it at the end, I wholeheartedly agree that it is awesome! I want it too!
I always think it’s so cool when you bring the 2 Wood’s into your sponsor spots! Great sponsorship, Wood!
Do you prefer the two Woods or the two Wulfs? .. I think we should start a pole.

This made me laugh so much, which I needed this week. Thanks for a great video (even though I kinda already knew about this 🤣). I’m sure it’ll help others!!
I recently did my 3DS eShop shopping spree and apparently my 3DS/Wii U and Switch balances had combined automatically at some point, so every purchase I made on that 3DS gave me Gold Points. I already had some on my Switch, so idk how many I actually got from that, but it ended with me having $17 worth of the stuff, so I threw another $5 on the account and bought Coromon since I'd been meaning to pick it up. Lol.
That definitely worked out in my favor. :)
I love the whole Gold Points thing. It has flaws, but it's a nice bonus. :)
Yo brother gotta say I really like your style of videos. Geeza
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.
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.
Btw if anyone is worrying about not being able to get some games you got longer than a year ago they changed it to 2 years from registration on the eshop
The transition to sold out was everything to me the rain the music the black & white Chef kiss 👨🏻🍳😘👌🏼
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.
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
Those Metroid posters are great, I grabbed those and the Animal Crossing coasters as soon as they hit lol.
Thank you finally I got channel talking about Nintendo switch nice one bro
This is really cool Wood!! I did not know about the missions for the points! Awesome video! Sorry for all of the hate you get for some of your videos! Some people just like to tear others down. Don’t let it get to you! You’re a wonderful content creator and I appreciate you very much!
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
When he said NIJJALA!!!!!!!! It was so funny and I love your content😁
I just wanna say, I really appreciate a good personality and good gaming advice, and you sir provide both, you are a gentleman and a scholar, and have found a lifelong fan in me. Have an AMAZING DAY! Thanks!
Watched this video only after seeing the twitter rant. I really liked it and don’t understand what the issue is with you making an actually interesting and entertaining video on this. Yes a lot of people already know about redeeming coins for physical games but look at how much work went in to this video, the guy took us on his journey in discovering this and went even further to show how to gain platinum points for physical “gifts” (something I didn’t know about). Thanks for the content and hard work, don’t let the negativity get you down or second guess yourself. As my gran always used to say “you never get run over by a Rolls Royce…it’s always the garbage truck”
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). :)
Cri i keep forgetting to register games. ;-; indont wanna think about it
@@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 love what you said about these coins being achievement rewards!
Yup I do this, but usually I can’t bc of the one year limit, but on the other side if I’ve waited over a year to buy I’m usually buying the game on sale so saving money that way instead😅
Whats the one year limit?
If you're buying games on sale on the eShop, then you're not getting the full amount of gold points back. This method is best used with physical games.
@@saltgoatshaker8844 if the game has been released for a year u can no longer get points for it. Example I bought animal crossing last week I cannot get points because it's been over a year
@@KewelsBri but you do get some gold points for each digital game you buy from the eshop depending on the price of it but the more expensive the game the more gold coins points you get though I think
I had no idea this was a thing! I have 19 physical games, some I bought new, some second hand. I just went through them all & was still able to collect 250 points over 5 games! Better late than never!
This Nintendo points system has actually been around for a very long time. I started redeeming them on my DS and 3DS and got free stuff sent to me. It's been like idk maybe 15 years now. Never knew some ppl didn't know about it, sharing info worldwide wasn't as easy back then.
I knew about the points but never really understood it. Thank you wood !!!
I absolutley love your videos! Dont let the twitter haters stop you, keep making content the way you want to. Thanks for the awesome videos
yooo i didn’t know this either!! so cool. ima go home and do all the missions lol and redeem my games
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.
Turns out it’s actually a year within the RELEASE of the game. I thought it was within the purchase date. Help.
I’m sorry, but how did you miss the “pay with points” option on the eshop?
I’ve bought heaps of indie titles with gold points since the switch came out.
He knew about the gold points thing, just not that you can get gold points for physical games
@@negativelm1079 If I bought brand new physical games that released in 2017 like Botw or Xenoblade, can I still redeemed the point?
@@link-kun5974 potentially, it matters more about when the cartridge itself was produced and not the release date of the game
Love that I saw this so quickly!
I've tried this with *Mario Party Superstars* yesterday, which I bought in November 2021, and it still worked.
Wow did not know this! Thank you for letting me know 😂
I used my points to buy the Smash DLC character's that I wanted! (Also got Links Awakening on sale cuz I had so many haha.) Had no idea that people didn't know about this, its flippen awesome I've been using it since the first year of the switch! 🙌🥂
Great Video Wood! Very entertaining and definitely helpful for those that don’t know about this system Nintendo has.
I thought everyone knew about these, I did most of them like a year ago, and the rewards points I've known since I got my switch. You can get points from the thing they added where you can make custom profile icons on your switch
Thanks for the tip I happen to have 1035 Platinum ports laying around and now I finally have a use for them
I literally just went through all of this myself 3 weeks ago. Now I’m playing pocket camp like 20hrs a week
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
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 totally forgot about this! Usually I wait and buy things on sale but recently I’ve been buying new and just scored 5$ in free game money! Ty dude!
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.
