Today, the 3DS’ “ambassador program” kicks off–you know the program that gives early adaptors 20 free games.
Previously, Kotaku you how to get your free games with words. And now we’re doing it with words and moving pictures. The future, people, the future!

It refuses to acknowledge mine, and I bought it on launch day and religiously checked into the eShop before and after the deadline just to make sure. Understandably, I’m more than a little bit pissed at Nintendo right now.

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

Thursday, September 1, 2011 at 7:42 AMGot a US 3DS and they were live last night. A bit of a pain to download the games when you get booted to the top menu of the store after downloading one, every single time.

Thursday, September 1, 2011 at 7:16 PMLadies and gentlemen, we have gaems.
Also Richard its already been noted that the intitial batch was just going to be the ten free NES games, the ten free GBA games (including Metroid Fusion) will be coming at a later date that to my knowledge is not yet decided but will be before the end of the year. I guess you’re just gonna have to play the original Metriod while you wait. . . like me. . .
