If you’re unfamiliar with the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador program, here’s some backstory: First, the Nintendo DS was released to the general public for the astounding price of eight million U.S. gold bars. After a couple of months of terrible sales, Nintendo opted to drop the price to a much more agreeable $169.99. And, to help soothe the minds of those that purchase the handheld at the original price point, the company promised to give every early-adopter ten free Game Boy Advance games.

The release of those games was delayed a couple of times while Nintendo got everything figured out, but they’ve officially announced a real-life release date as well as a list of the games to be released. Look for your Ambassador titles on December 16 – if you live in Japan or Europe. There has been no confirmation from Nintendo’s North American branch quite yet, but it’s safe to assume the games will launch on the same day unless we’re told otherwise.

Here are the ten games you can pick up on Friday:

• F-Zero
• Super Mario Advance 3
• The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
• Fire Emblem Seima no Kouseki
• Kirby & the Amazing Mirror
• Mario Kart Advance
• Mario vs. Donkey Kong
• Metroid Fusion
• Wario Land Advance
• Made in Wario

Are you in the Ambassador program? Was it worth the extra cash?
