The Last Story, Xenoblade Chronicles, Pandora's Tower: Limited Edition Commemorative Coin Collection

If you bought the three excellent Wii RPGs, Xenoblade Chronicles, Pandora's Tower and The Last Story, plus you registered them all with Club Nintendo, you could get a set of Limited Edition Coins. One for each game, placed in a nice Club Nintendo box. Also if you bought The Last Tower in HMV you were given an artbook that covered the three games and a box to hold all the game cases in.

A coin for each game
Here is the Limited Editions of TLS and PD, the Xenoblade Ltd Ed only came with a red classic controller (I think) so I never picked it up. Also shown is the box the coins came in and the HMV extras.

Everything!
After you had registered your games, you waited a bit to find out if you were one of the first to do so and then entitled to receive the coins. Club Nintendo sent a confirmation email and said the coins would arrive after a number of months. then after what seemed like ages (probably to give you time to finish the games!) they arrived in the post.

All in all, it's an excellent little addition to some excellent games. More game companies should do things like this. Usually people have to pay extra money for special editions and all you get is downloadable content or something. I must add that I haven't finished any of these games yet! But one day...
