THE BUZZ: Nintendo has announced the official release date for the free Gameboy Advance games that are part of the 3DS Ambassador program.

The ten free games will be released this Friday, December 16, in Japan, North America and Europe. These free games are being released as a reward for people who purchased the 3DS before it took a price cut shortly after launch. The games include:

F-Zero: Maximum Velocity
Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario Advance 3
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Fire Emblem The Sacred Stones
Kirby & the Amazing Mirror
Mario Kart Super Circuit
Mario vs Donkey Kong
Metroid Fusion
Wario Land Advance
WarioWare Inc: Mega Microgame$

EGM’s TAKE: Nintendo have given the ambassadors a great deal here. A few of the NES games in the first round were only okay, but every one of the GBA choices is stellar. Thanks Nintendo, and Happy Holidays to you too!
