Remaining 3DS Ambassador Games Still Coming This Year

Nintendo confirms that the remaining 10 GBA titles promised to gamers will be available before year's end.

Back when Nintendo shocked the gaming community by slashing the price of the 3DS from $250 to $170 they announced an initiative called the Ambassador Program to compensate/reward early adopters who had shelled out the higher price when the handheld was released just a short time prior.  The program would give members 10 classic titles each from the NES and GBA libraries.  The NES classics were delivered with the promise that the GBA titles would be delivered before the year ended.  But with December now here and no further news, rumors have suggested that perhaps the titles will slip to 2012 if they ever make it out at all.

Fans can rest assured, though, that they have not been forgotten and that Nintendo has no intention of breaking their promise.  Nintendo has confirmed to the Official Nintendo Magazine that the GBA titles in the Ambassador Program will still be released this year.

We still don’t know the complete listing of games that members will be getting.  The five titles announced previously include Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario Advance 3, Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Metroid Fusion, WarioWare, Inc.: Minigame Mania and Mario Vs. Donkey Kong.

We’ll bring you more on the Ambassador Program as further details become available.

I thought the NES game selection was weak, but these GBA games make up for it. Now I wish I was in the Ambassador program...

There are some good titles among the ones already listed that I never got a chance to play. I am pretty pumped about getting these!
