3DS

Despite a listing on the official Spanish Nintendo website, the 3DS Ambassador Game Boy Advance titles are still coming this year. A Nintendo spokesperson clarified the situation, noting that the company “will make further announcements in due course.” The ten GBA titles will arrive on the eShop before the end of the month.

The spokesperson said:

“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.”

At least we can rest easy knowing that the GBA titles will arrive sometime within the next thirty days!

Fils-Aime also mentioned that the 3DS has surpassed sales of the original DS, and in a shorter timespan. The DS hit 2.37 million units in its first year while the 3DS already beat out that number in just eight months.
