Just a friendly reminder that Walmart has started to sell the Nintendo 3DS for$169.99today, allowing consumers toexploit the 3DS Ambassador programby registering their system early and qualifying for Nintendo’s twenty free games. The handheld isn’t supposed to drop its price until August 12.

So long as you get your 3DS connected to the eShop by Friday, Nintendo will think you bought your console at full price and offer ten free NES games alongside ten free Game Boy Advance ones. It’s the kind of scam worthy of Carmen Sandiego herself.
