Nintendo has finally released a patch for Mario Kart 7 which will fix 3 illegal shortcuts for online mode. YAY!

By some strange reason, yeah, this doesn't affect offline modes of the game. The shortcuts are in Wuhu Island Loop, Wuhu Mountain Loop, and Bowser’s Castle 1. People trying to get online in the game without the patch will be alerted of the patch at the eShop and won't be able to connect at all in the game.

More info about the patch in this link:

The new game rewards for Club Nintendo in NA are now available. This month's update is regular, IMO. Atleast it's not completely bad.

Anyway, for 200 Coins, you can get "You, Me, and the Cubes", an action-puzzle game, or you can also get "Excitebike: World Rally", which.. I don't need to explain, I hope so. For 3DS, this month the only thing available is "Metal Torrent" for 150 Coins. It is a DSiWare shoot'em-up game.
