Nintendo typically releases icon elements for various consoles, such as the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Nintendo 64 (N64), Game Boy, Game Boy Advance (GBA), Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), and Nintendo GameCube, as part of themed waves or special events. However, specific release dates for these elements are not consistently disclosed in advance. Regularly check the My Nintendo website for updates on available rewards.
As of now, there is no specific information available on future waves of icon elements for these consoles. To stay informed, monitor the My Nintendo site and social media channels for announcements about new rewards and icon releases.
When redeeming Platinum Points, consider what you want to prioritize, as points are used for various rewards. Take advantage of missions and activities through the Nintendo Switch Online service to earn more Platinum Points.
Remember, any Nintendo Switch Online membership (sold separately) is required for online features, and a Nintendo Account is also necessary to receive and redeem points. Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, and GameCube icons are only available with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership.
Icon elements are refreshed each week on the Nintendo Switch Online app. The service is not available in all countries, and internet access is required for online features. Regularly checking the app will help you avoid missing any updates.
