There is a news update in the stars catalog today, as i've just discovered.
It looks like we're getting closer to getting good use out of our otherwise-pointless stars...

Dear Nintendo Fan.
Last Friday we have been running internal tests in the Stars Catalog on our website. Unfortunately, because of a mistake during the testing phase, the Wii Points item accidentally appeared appeared on the website between 4pm and 8pm. We want to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
This Item is not available in the Stars Catalog, and the price of 789 stars used during the testing process was entirely random. We understand that this may have caused a disappointment, so please accept out apologies. Thanks you for your understanding.
Best Regards,
Your Nintendo Team.
