Are you the chosen one?

According to Nintendo Europe, special Club Nintendo members in Europe will receive the opportunity to purchase a special Ambassador Edition of the New Nintendo 3DS before the official launch.

Details about how these special members were chosen will, however, remain secret. In a statement to Eurogamer, Nintendo declined to elaborate on their selection criteria. "We are unable to disclose such business information, however we would like to reassure you that we are continually looking at different promotional offerings we can bring to consumers at various times throughout the year," said a spokesperson, "the terms and conditions for such promotional activities are individual to each promotion, but we will endeavor to bring you more promotional activities in the future, which we hope you will be able to take advantage of."

Ambassador bundles will cost members £179.99 and are ready to ship within 3-5 days of purchase. These bundles include the following:

New Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Edition Bundle system in White - Valued at £155.99
An exclusive set of front and back Ambassador Edition Cover Plates - Valued at £7.67

Hm. I like this idea... but I want a 3DS XL. Not sure if I'd bite or not.

Okay, I'd bite.

Cool looking 3DS and I would love to have it. Hopefully similar promotions are offered in other parts of the world.

LOL, I find it funny that they mention stuff that comes with every system like it's a big deal. The bundle comes with the Operations Manual? AWESOME!!!!

I'd find it hilarious if the bundle was limited to people who were part of the original 3DS Ambassador Program.

So for those who read Japanese what does the plate say?

This selection smacks of something... well not exactly nice. Nintendo is not trying to be all inclusive in this offer. Instead, they are singling out people at their own discretion and not sure what their equation to select someone is. All I am saying is, if you really want something like this, you should be able to order or purchase it.

It should be a reward for stars, or whatever the site uses for currency.
