Then they wouldn't be Virtual Console.rufus83 said:I found this of interest, (ripped from the press release on Nintendo.com):
Starting Sept. 1, Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors will be able to download 10 NES™ Virtual Console™ games at no charge and before they are available in the Nintendo eShop to the general public. These games, including Super Mario Bros.™, Donkey Kong Jr.™, Balloon Fight™, Ice Climber™ and The Legend of Zelda™, are slated to become paid downloadable games, but Ambassadors get them early for free. Once the paid versions of the games are posted to the Nintendo eShop later in the year, the updated versions will be available to Ambassadors for download at no cost.
Notice near the end where it states that "Updated" versions of these games will be free for ambassadors when they are released to the public. What exactly do they mean by "Updated" I wonder? Are these games scheduled to become 3D Classics perhaps?
OK, So what does it mean then? Are we getting beta versions or something? Why would we have a need to download "updated" versions later otherwise?machomuu said:Then they wouldn't be Virtual Console.rufus83 said:I found this of interest, (ripped from the press release on Nintendo.com):

They probably mean "updated" as in free. This is possible, as previously the say "paid versions" when referring to the versions they are to sell.rufus83 said:OK, So what does it mean then?

EDIT: Well I called Nintendo to find out. They put me on hold for like 10 minutes haha. I guess almost nobody there knew, but they asked 1 person who had some information. They told me that we aren't getting completely "full" versions of these games at first. I don't know if it will be demos, or just incomplete versions, but that's what the "updated" was all about. We will eventually have to download the "final" version of the games once they are actually released.
Some of the GBA/NES games they're offering are confirmed to have multiplayer.Team Fail said:If they include Ruby and Sapphire, they'd better make it capable of multiplayer. Or else I will be raging.
Image please?Zarxrax said:I got an email from nintendo customer service which states that Kirby and the Amazing Mirror will be one of the GBA games.
Slyakin said:Image please?
And I would love for this to be true.
Chances are, they're gonna release Pokemon for the GBA VC after the Ambassador Program ends.Tanveer said:lol No Pokemon so far.

They'll get more money if people actually pay for it.
