As if thw weekend couldnt get better for some, an old rumour comes true:
Quote:
UK Nintendo membership holders will finally be able to put their 'Stars' to good use. Earned via codes packaged with Nintendo hardware and software sold in the UK, Stars have been useless (redeemed for wallpaper) until now. Nintendo has announced it will be adding Wii points to the Stars Catalogue.
By linking a Wii Shop Channel account to an online Nintendo membership, Wii owners will soon be able to put their Stars toward Virtual Console purchases (by way of Wii points). But it gets better: completing a survey upon purchasing a VC title will transfer some new Stars back to your membership. It's almost like the VC games are paying for themselves -- but not quite. We're willing to bet the 'Stars to Wii points' exchange rate ain't so hot.

I also bet its not a great converstion rate, but free is free.
I never bothered with starts before but after a little looking i found what the deal was:

Looking around i found loads of leaflets with codes on in my GC and DS collection(400 for mario kart DD) and for those who got Wii you will find codes with the console, wii sports, zelda and probebly every other launch title.
So sign up and register what you can find and u may get a classic free game out of it.
