Got a 3DS?

Congrats, you are now a 3DS Ambassador!

Seriously, if you bought a 3DS while it still had it's soon to be changed 250$ price tag, you are being called part of the 3DS Ambassador Program by Nintendo, which get special free perks not given to the buyers who get it at it's soon-to-be-changed to 170$ price tag. Already confirmed are 10 eShop games for free for us on Sep 1 and 10 more around Christmas.

What do you think of the program/price cut type stuff? Will you be receiving the games?


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Re: Got a 3DS?

You know what? I think i'd rather have the $80 to buy 2 new 3DS games.


But on the other hand, more people need to buy the 3DS.  hmm

Wait, 20 games isn't enough. They're full fledged downloadable or not.

And I think there will be other benefits besides these.

Anyway, SM, have you seen the games they're making for it? Have you tried the system? I mean geez the 3D isn't the only thing awesome about it.

Re: Got a 3DS?

I tried a sample of it once, and the 3D was horrible. It hurt your eyes too. I know there's new features and games and all, but I am not going to get a 3DS. Hopefully the WiiU will be better.

1. Get a 250$ 3DS if not already owning one
2. Connect to eShop before August 12th.
3. ???
4. Profit

And from what I understand, there will always be some perks as long as it keeps having new games and such.  yikes  Not just those ones already promised.  yikes

You have to look at it correctly.

...I love you, Nintendo.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.
