Besides extending your console's warranty and the <a href="http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/newsArt.cfm?artid=10792">less-than-occasional giveaway</a>, it's pretty much the only incentive for North American gamers to register their Nintendo products at all.<br /><br />Enjoy the offer while it lasts, as it expires at the end of this month, and trial subscription registrations will no longer be accepted come August 1st. Could this be the harbinger of <em>Nintendo Power's</em> move to a <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/05/23/rumor-redux-nintendo-power-heading-to-3rd-party-publisher/">third-party publisher</a>? Or perhaps it was just finally time to end the trial? Either way, we hope that <em>something</em> will take its place as a reward for product registration. We're tired of seeing the <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/07/19/the-club-nintendo-gundam-tortures-retro-nerds/">awesome stuff</a> Japan's Club Nintendo receives, while all we get are downloadable wallpapers.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/07/28/nintendo-power-ending-three-for-free-offer/">Nintendo Power ending three-for-free offer</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Sat, 28 Jul 2007 13:15:00 EST.
