Club Nintendo has posted its final round of Elite Rewards for Gold and Platinum members in North America, and it's going out strong - assuming you want more Nintendo games like Animal Crossing; New Leaf and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. But if you're looking for a last shot at Nintendo-branded goodies like Hanafuda cards and day planners, you won't find them here.
To qualify for Club Nintendo Elite Membership, you must earn a minimum of 300 coins in one year by registering games and filling out surveys (it doesn't matter if you've spent them, you just need to have earned them). That gets you Gold Status, but you need to earn 600 coins for Platinum status, which opens up the whole full selection of 'gifts'. Either way, you can only pick one reward, so you'd better make it a good one. Club Nintendo will close on June 31 in North America, so it's pretty much now or never.

If you didn't redeem get enough coins for a 2015 Elite membership, you're sadly out of luck. The last day to earn new coins was March 31, though you have until June 30 to spend any you already have on a separate, substantial catalog of games.
