Fair warning: I find Super Circuit unplayable these days. There's something about the way the karts handle that makes the game incredibly difficult to adjust to. It seems like the back-end of your vehicle swings WAY out than the rest of it.

That game should have sold loads
Just stick a bunch of ads on telly on kid's TV saying 'FROM THE PEOPLE WHO BROUGHT YOU POKEMON... THIS SHIT' and boom
Also that game has a ridiculous red shell bias. It's an odd choice, considering MK7 just released.

Yoshi's Island and Minish Cap??
...
I cannot find my copy of that game ANYWHERE since I moved and it breaks my heart.
Edit: I also can't find Metroid Zero Mission.

Which is a shame, because it would have had the superior title- SCREW BREAKER
Rumble is hardly the selling feature for the game.
Speaking of special GBA carts, I wonder if it's technically possible to port over Wario Ware Twisted since the 3DS does have a built-in gyro sensor.
Guys, the fact that you have already played more recent Mario Kart isn't an excuse for not playing Super Circuit! While the latest MK are more focused on the multiplayer modes, specially online, Super Circuit offered a fantastic 1P mode. Lots of tracks and cups, and is possibly the hardest MK to dominate. The control and dashing may seem stiff compared to newer MK at first, but once you get used it becomes really challenging, and the collection of coins was a lot more important and strategic than in MK7.
Sure it's possible. Doesn't seem very likely, though.

listen to the mad man
It's technically possible to do anything with an emulator or by editing a ROM, the question is whether or not Nintendo would bother. It's possible (and indeed fairly easy) to play as Sonic the Hedgehog in Super Mario Bros 1, or have achievements for VC games, or online leaderboards, or online multiplayer. Any one of those things could be added easily.

I doubt they would release it as a straight port. They could remake it as a 3DSWare game, though it would have to be 2D only due to moving the system around.
enter "CHINESE PIRATE CART" on the password screen
A new game based on the same concept would be pretty awesome, but they better keep the staircase boss and WARIO DE MAAAAAAAMBOOOOOOOOOOOO

Under 13 confirmed.
Anyway, awesome list. I have next to no experience with Kirby, F-Zero, Wario Land or Fire Emblem, so am looking forward to those.
Wait, out on Friday? Awesome.

Nice list. I own Fusion but everything else is new to me. Was really hoping for SMB. 3 though, but it's ok.

Yeah, it's a great game. I seem to recall it not getting much love when it was released on the SNES either due to it being released way late in that console's life (along with Kirby 3).

Speak for yourself!
The first game came out before Shining Force. But yes it's a turn-based strategy game. Though in this one if one of your units die, they die for good.

Wario Land 4!!!! Love it!
yep
fe7 is the best gba game, well maybe M&L:SS is better but its a toss up. and the advance wars games are right behind

Think of it this way. Everyone deserves to play Fire Emblem 7. Not just ambassadors.
Nice. MvDK and Kirby were at the top of my want list for the GBA games, and I never owned Fzero or WarioWare (though I've played a good bit of the latter). Would've loved to see Advance Wars 2, Mario 3 (guess this is likely to get a 3D classics at some point seeing as it's showing up in neither half of the Ambassador program), or Mario/Pokemon pinball, but I'll happily take all the other games offered and play through them again.
everyone must survive

Pu-pu-pu- permadeath? What is this u speak of
turn off animations, turn on fast movement
no chapter should last more than 15 minutes until the very end
after chapter 10, anyone who loses all their hit points is unusable for the rest of the game
Kirby is not bad! You take that back!!!
I forgot that Yoshis Island was in this list too. My 3DS is going to be busy for the next few weeks.

FE7 is the superior game to Sacred Stones... however...
Sacred Stones is the better entry-level Fire Emblem game, IMO. It's easier, more forgiving and boasts prettier eye candy.
Every Emblem hardcore player prefers FE7 but if they were going to give out an FE game for free I'm glad it's Sacred Stones because it's less likely to turn people off the series.

Why not just say "Mother SERIES" instead.
