Download your 3DS 'Ambassador Certificate' from tomorrow to keep track of your ten free GBA games

The Nintendo 3DS Ambassador program kicks off tomorrow, with ten free NES games available to download for all 3DS owners who purchased the console before August 12th.

Those of you blessed with the memory of an elephant will also remember that we were promised ten free Game Boy Advance titles at some point, too - and Nintendo is already preparing to let us know when.

Starting from tomorrow (September 1st), you'll be able to download a free 'Ambassador Certificate' from the Nintendo eShop, just as you would download any other game.

The video will keep you up to date on when the freebie GBA games will be available, and once they are, it will be a simple case of hitting the 'receive' button in the video.

There is still no specific date for when the games are due, but we're told "before the end of the year".

Five of the GBA games have already been announced: Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3, Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Metroid Fusion, WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame!, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong.
