I know your pain,
@Burgundy Blade. I missed my Platinum status last year by 80 coins because I was away on vacation when the registration period ended.
This year I made certain to hit Platinum but I'm in the position of owning most all of the games on that list that I'd have any interest in. I've decided to go for Ultimate NES Remix, just to finally give one of the games from that franchise a go. They've always intrigued me but not enough to put actual cash down on them. Can't complain when I'm getting it for free! ^^
