Were you?




I got a 3DS on launch day in 2011 so I became an ambassador as soon as I could.

I was, but it really wasn't worth it because I had played those games to death already on the GBA and those ambassador versions had some weird ghosting.

If had waited some more months I could even gotten the original XL which was still cheaper than the release price (I was a young, huge nintendo fanboy back then, although I didn't get any other 3DS model the following years)

Nope. I got the Flame Red 3DS, which was released after the price drop (and the cutoff for the Ambassador status)/

No, I was deleting data on my 3ds trying to figure something out regarding a game taking forever to load at the pre-intro screen despite not doing that before and saw this:



And thought it said AmbassadorPog at first

Then thought I'd make a topic

Ah. Just a coincidence then. Id just finished listening to that podcast (released today) and it was about the history of 3DS, including a decent discussion about the Ambassador Program.

Scambassador refers to the people who bought a 3DS in the few weeks before the program eligibility ended but the price drop had already taken effect.
