According to GoNintendo a number of Nintendo 3DS users have already been sent a notification message via SpotPass to tell them that their Gameboy Advance game will be available to download shortly. Basically keep an eye out for a SpotPass notification which is currently being rolled out to all users that are eligible for the Ambassador Program.
:D
Keeping it simple and not bragging about first comment. I like, respect, and agree with this comment.
Don’t even bring up “first”
It was probably a short post so he could ensure his top spot XD
BIG NEWS PEOPLE!!!
ONM (official nintendo magazine) said that legend of zelda the minis cap will be one of the GBA games that will be given to ambassadors!!!
i misspelled minish…
Can I get a source on this?
Yeah, ONM…
Oh, so they aren’t on Valve time
Only Valve is on Valve time.
But, have you noticed any 3rd games in series’ as part of these free games?
How many games on the system are actually able to fit that description?
FINALLY! I was worried we’d have to wait for Christmas for the GBA games.
Agreed!
I mean they dropped the price months ago and the regular NES games aren’t that fun unless you grew up with them, I am looking forward to some great GBA game time before xmas.
I find this odd. Nintendo hasn’t even told us what the other 5 GBA games are yet. (Not that I need much of anything else other than Yoshi’s Island and Metroid Fusion)
Nice.
I’m really looking foreward for thoose games… My 3DS menu is looking alittle bit pale…
wooooop, im annoyed my 3ds hasnt updated and i was looking forward to 3d videos
November 30th (UK)
whats your source
His dreams, Joseph, his dreams :)
Ahem,
WOOP! About time too!
I don’t have my 3DS on me!!!
It’s unlikely, but I hope we get Minish Cap, it’s the only Zelda I haven’t played.
agreed.
I would rather they sell Minish Cap to everyone who wants to buy it. Remember, the GBA Ambassador games are exclusives.
I think they will only be exclusives for so long. It wouldn’t really be worth it to convert them for the million or so owners of it when they could sell it. I’m sure they are working on adding Advance to the Virtual console and when that time comes they will be available to purchase by all.
There “no plans to sell” is just something for us to brag about until they make the official announcement.
The NES games are timed exclusives, GBA games are kept to ambassadors. And rightfully so.
Would be excellent timing. I’ve a full month off from 9 days time (ok, 10, day 1 will be recovering from alcohol). Though have far more games than time already, without another 10 thrown in on top.
i just bought the game skyward sword limited edition and is garbage
the wii remote looks like crap the orchestra soundtrack sucks full of mistakes and the game is just ok, the controls are not responsive at times but the game is just more of the same….
This has so much relevance…
this was a troll post! skyward sword is god.
You must be genius. Skyward Sword is God.
Haha, the Skyward Sword is literally God. :L
Are you retarded?
Please block this guy’s ip sicklr…
It’s over, Nintendo is finished.
havent you seen this comment on the different articles everytime?!!?
Don’t be mad. :3
Funny, i saw this same exact post on other articles.
And now i see Yusuf’s comment..
It’s totally not more of the same, I’ve been playing Zelda since the beginning (I’m 32). Skyward Sword is awesome, the controls are great, love the gold remote. And the taste they give you with the soundtrack makes me really want to go to one of the concerts. Basically, whatever Noob!
I’ve seen that same comment copy and pasted everywhere… It’s just a bunch of trolls, haters, and sony fanboys trying to knock on Zelda and be a douche towards the people that actually enjoy it.
Oh boy, it’s this guy again.
Tom McShea, is that you? I understand your hate at the game but really? Bashing the awesome wiimote and the Orchestra? that Orchestra was amazing and that wiimote is great for being the only golden wiimote. Whatever gamespot is paying you, it’s not worth it for all the hate you receive.
U mad @ god bro?
Is there a chance to get “Links Awakening DX”, i´ve waited because i thought it could be included in the free ones ….
Link’s Awakening DX is not one of the free ones. It’s already been released, and you’ve got to pay for it.
The only free games coming to ambassadors are GBA games. Link’s Awakening DX was a GBC game. Sorry.
Ah ok thank u, then i´ll have to buy it. I think its worth the money.
it certainly is!
No, that is a gameboy colour game which is already on the eshop. Nintendo would just lose money if it was also a ambassador game. Plus, loads of people (including myself) have already paid for it, and it would really piss us off…
You can BUY it on Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo 3DS.
W00T! I’m so gonna log onto the eShop once i get notified. “Warioware: Mega Microgame$” better be one of ’em.
I’m fairly certain it was confirmed.
I wish we knew WHEN we would be able to download these games. That help me a lot right now. I don’t live in an area of wifi, and I would be able to get to one, asap. lol.
Awesome!!! I can’t wait for the release date!
Better happen over thanksgiving. I’m dying waiting for these games!!!
I want a 3DS!!!
You won’t be getting these 10 games though, shoulda bought one in August or earlier.
Doesn’t matter to me… I just want one
he could buy an used ambassador 3DS.
Nope, as the ambassador games are tied to your account, assuming the used retailer does it right, the previous account would be removed. If you used that account, all your purchases would go to his club Nintendo account.
Wonder why they don’t release ’em one by one, once it is finished..
Please add download queue functionality to the eshop before releasing these ten games. Please, Nintendo.
Might come in the November Update.
I highly doubt it’ll happen… y’know… seeing as 80% of the games they have in the eshop are complete shit and not worth anyone’s time…
I wish they made it as simple to use as the one on the wii :/
does that mean we get them
Yay finally

Damn, and I just bought Link’s Awakening DX the other day. I never played that game and got caught up in the Zelda hype. I need to finish that, but I also need to finish Skyward Sword. I hope we get one of the Pokemon (main) games and The Minish Cap, though I doubt it. Fire Emblem would be epic!
Pingback: Anyone else seen this? (GBA Ambassador games) - Nintendo 3DS Forums
Am I the only one that hasn’t seen this notification? lol
I haven’t
i havent either…:(
That makes two of us (and those guys who commented above me).
Haven’t got one either :S
Yes! Can’t wait :D
Good! About time too.
I know, I was beginning to think Nintendo forgot about us ambassadors, lol.
Can we have a headline posted when someone actually gets there notification? So I can hover over my 3ds.
^^^^^^^
This. Well, i guess i can check after school, if its not here, well, ill be worried.
i live in the US, and im a ambassador, but i havent gotten the notification yet. my 3ds was on all night as i waited for morning to check. its morning, and well, i havent gotten it yet. am i the only one here who hasnt gotten it yet?
no i haven’t had it yet either :( and i was also on all night
Majority of us haven’t gotten it yet. I’m assuming they were testing it, and a few lucky people got them before they transmit the message to everyone.
ya, right now its 3ish EST. and i still havet gotten it :(
I think it will go around the world so Japan 1st, then UK then US then Aus land if i go by order of SM3dL update so there are a few in the uk waiting on this and I am one of them
About time Nintendo. I want to play my GBA games NOW! lol
For US useras ONLY I guess …
im in the US and i didnt get it…
I still haven’t got my notification either as of this morning.
Me neither
It’s now the middle of December and still no word about these games. The clock is ticking Nintendo. This is getting a bit ridiculous. You could at least give us some kind of news other than “they’ll be released by the end of the year”.
