Full Ambassador GBA Games List and Release Date Announced
12.14.2011 - CapCom

Nintendo of Europe and Nintendo of Japan recently announced via SpotPass the full listing of Game Boy Advance titles available for Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors. What's more, the release date for Europe and Japan has been given as this Friday, December 16! Note the first five were announced back in August.

  • Metroid Fusion
  • Yoshi's Island (Super Mario Advance 3)
  • Mario Kart: Super Circuit
  • WarioWare Inc.: Mega Microgames
  • Mario vs. Donkey Kong
  • F-Zero: Maximum Velocity
  • The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
  • Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
  • Kirby & The Amazing Mirror
  • Wario Land 4

All in all, a solid lineup, and three of these (Fusion, WarioWare, and Wario Land 4) are Yoshio Sakamoto titles! Nearly every game on the list is a recognized classic, unlike the NES selection, which contains some questionable titles (Yoshi's Cookie?). We're very excited for the chance to play Metroid Fusion on the 3DS soon, but it's especially great to see The Minish Cap on the list, considering the game normally resells for more than $20!

Note that North American owners have not yet received a SpotPass notification, but we will probably get the announcement sometime today. No word yet when these will be available for purchase for the 3DS Virtual Console, but that will probably happen over the next year.

Until next time...
Captain Commando
