Nintendo has 'no plans' for Wii U Ambassador program

4.4

Nintendo has said there are "no plans" to implement a 3DS-esque Ambassador program on the Wii U, according to a statement made to Wii U Daily. Nintendo recently announced a $50 price change on the Wii U deluxe bundle, which made Wii U Daily question if the company might offer an Ambassador program, as they did when the 3DS dropped from $250 to $170.

According to a Nintendo rep, however, the Ambassador program is "only available to any Nintendo 3DS owner who purchased their system before August 12, 2011 and there are no plans for a similar program for Wii U." The representative also apologized, stating that, "I know this isn't what you were hoping for."

Oh well, at least there's that snazzy-looking The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD Wii U bundle coming soon!

Even with their price drops no one wants those pieces of junk.

Dr-J Who ever joins this is crazy, how many people even play that thing daily?

Not too many, hence why they have no plans for an ambassador program

That was a given, they should just do like a recall on the system

I have owned the console since day one and only played it like a max of 5 times, the console lacks a lot of fun things and kind of sucks to be honest. It is a little disappointing.

I play it once and didn't even have fun, I think I played for around 30 minutes and I was bored as hell.

Aggie Wow they just need to stop. This is almost laughable right now.

"Almost", it is laughable, and it's a shame.

Nintendo used to make great things.

They really did, the Wii U was a massive step in the wrong direction by Nintendo

I know right, I wish I could rewind time and send Nintendo some messages with directions.
