Hehe, i probabily should have explained what the Stars are to everyone who isn't a European gamer!
Basically put, Nintendo of Europe run a Stars scheme whereby you can register 'Stars' that you find packaged inside selected Nintendo Gamecube/GameBoy Advance/Nintendo DS/Nintendo Wii games/or Hardware on Nintendo-Europe.com to spend in their online 'Stars Catalogue', letting you download some nice extra's such as Mobile Phone Ringtones, wallpapers, skins, etc, and on the rare occasion, actual games/hardware (Providing you have enough stars registered to your account & you're online before they sell out!!!).
However they're considering extending the scheme onto the Nintendo Wii's Virtual Console so that you can change your Stars into Wii points, but obviously as the rumour above states, it's be at a rip-off exchange rate if true, considering how long it takes you to get a decent amount of Stars!
