How to Register Your Nintendo Wii

Visit the Club Nintendo website (see Resources) to create an account and begin registering your Wii.

Click "Join Club Nintendo Now" and enter your date of birth and email address. Then enter your desired user name and displayed screen name. Create a password and click "Continue."

Select your gender, country, zip code and gamer lever (beginner, intermediate, advanced), then type your first and last name. You also can enter your street address, but this is optional. Click "Continue" when you are finished.

Check your email. Nintendo sends an activation link to your email address. Click on the link within the body of the email to activate your account and then sign in using your user name and password.

Examine the back of your Nintendo Wii. Here you'll find the product-serial number, which is required for registration. The serial number begins with two letters (usually "TW" or "LU"). Write down the entire serial number.

Type the serial number in the box on your Club Nintendo home screen. The box says "Enter PIN or Serial Number Here." Click "Register" to register your Nintendo Wii.
