Ironically what saved the console for me was VC DK64.

It's clear that they felt the Gameboy Advance VC on Wii U would save the console (same as Earthbound Beginnings being exclusive to Wii U while the 3DS can perfectly run NES games)

I don’t think they care enough, honestly. You’d think with the New 3DS, but no...

@TeridaxXD001: I was very well aware of that.
I meant to say that I wish Nintendo would find a way to make GBA games PROPERLY work on the 3DS.

They work, it's just that they play identically to a physical GBA cartridge in the original DS, meaning there's no restore points and they won't go to sleep when you close the system. Those aren't a big deal, so I guess they really just want to keep them Ambassador-exclusive.

Ah, yes.
The best Nintendo 3DS game there is. :P

Also, if Nintendo wants to support the 3DS for much longer, I really hope they find a way to make GBA games work on it. I just don't feel as comfortable playing them on a big tablet (Wii U GamePad).

basically a "i love spending money" certificate with some consolation prizes.
Reminds me of that hat that was given to people that actually bought tf2

It’s a downloadable certificate of authenticity that marks the owner a member of the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program, of which membership was available to anyone who bought a 3DS before the first price drop in fall 2011. They were able to download 10 NES Virtual Console games long before the NES was publicly supported on 3DS VC, as well as 10 VC games from the Game Boy Advance (which to this day is still publicly unsupported for 3DS).

This certificate was its own application on the HOME menu, which is why it gets its own game section here. I wouldn’t expect any more sheets, though. (Wow, that’s a lengthy explanation, sorry about that)
