Despite Nintendo of Spain listing the ten free Gameboy Advance games for release next year Nintendo has confirmed that the Ambassador Games are still on track for a release this year and will be available before the end of December. Great news for all of us!
“The forthcoming 10 GBA Virtual Console titles available for registrants of the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Programme will be available before the end of December 2011.
“We will make further announcements in due course.”

According to Nintendo of Spain the ten free Gameboy Advance ambassador program games that Nintendo promised for early Nintendo 3DS adopters have been delayed until sometime next year. It would make sense as Nintendo has been suspiciously quiet on the subject as they were supposed to be here this year.

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.
Today is the day when anyone who purchased a Nintendo 3DS before the official price cut can claim their ten free NES games. There’s been some confusion as to how to get them. All you need to do is go to the Nintendo 3DS eShop and click ‘Settings/Other’ then scroll down to ‘Titles You’ve Downloaded’. Once you’ve done this scroll right down and you should see the ten free NES games. Enjoy!
Yesterday I posted that Nintendo Ambassador Certificate was available to download. It turns out that whilst Nintendo America announced the certificate it isn’t actually available to download until tomorrow. Apologies to those that were frantically searching for the video yesterday evening. Be sure to download the certificate and your free NES games tomorrow!
Nintendo America has announced it’s put up a Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Certificate. The certificate is a video which allows Ambassadors to receive updates regarding the Ambassador Program. By tapping the ‘receive’ button in the video you’ll automatically be updated with all the information you need about the Ambassador Program.
The Ambassador Certificate is a downloadable video available to Ambassadors.
By tapping the receive button on the Touch Screen when viewing this video, Ambassadors will receive updates regarding the Ambassador Program, such as when new titles are available to download. As soon as details for the 10 Game Boy Advance Virtual Console titles are available, we will send an update to those who have opted in using the Ambassador Certificate.
Ambassadors will be able to download 10 Game Boy Advance Virtual Console titles for free before the end of the year.
Edit: The Ambassador Certificate will be available to download tomorrow.
Nintendo Japan has announced the full line up of NES games for Nintendo 3DS ambassadors. We already knew we were getting Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda, Ice Climber, Donkey Kong Jr. and Balloon Fight. Now Nintendo has announced the other five as Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, Wrecking Crew, Yoshi, Metroid, and NES Open Tournament Golf.
There’s a rumour floating around the Internet that the entire list of twenty free Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console games has leaked onto the Internet. To me the list looks rather dubious, but I’ll let you guys make up your own mind. What do you think? A fanboys dream, or legitimate?
