I still think it's crazy that they took the time and trouble to create native gameboy advanced firmware and literally only used it for this

Yep. GBA was a bit of a blind spot for me, so I loved some of the game I got as a result of the Ambassador Program. Wouldve thrown money at them for more games.

The 3DS was a direct superset of DS which was a superset of GBA. So it was running in true GBA mode. The wifi functions didn't work in sleep mode for this reason, that's why they let GBA games fall by the wayside.

They didnt really do much for the GBA games as it just used the built-in DS hardware.

Didn't buy a 3DS until June 2013. Present for myself on my 18th birthday and for graduating high school.

Yeah when I hacked mine one of the first things I did was inject roms to play on it

it worked exactly like the ds' gba mode

still, seems to me like they would make more money off of selling those games instead of forcing people to inject roms into a cia file

Nintendo had bare minimum standards for their VC which GBA games on the 3DS could not possibly meet. Sleep mode didnt even work with them.

like 2 weeks before the price drop my local Future Shop put them on sale for like 10$ more than the price drop would be, so I bought one 3 weeks early and got the ambassador games with it. Pretty damn good game collection too.
