Nintendo of Europe is giving out a free game to new 3DS players

Register a system, one of the upcoming Pok?mon remakes, and Smash Bros.

In Europe, Nintendo is running a “Nintendo 3DS Winter 2014 Bonus Game Promotion” in which folks who register a 2DS, 3DS, or 3DS XL as well as a copy of Super Smash Bros. and Pokémon Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire can claim a free 3DS game via download:

• Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
• The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
• Yoshi’s New Island
• Kirby: Triple Deluxe
• Mario Golf: World Tour
• Mario Party: Island Tour
• Pokémon Art Academy

Something to keep in mind for the holidays. You’ll have until January 12 to register all of the necessary purchases through Club Nintendo before you can request a code for one of those titles.

There’s no word on there being a similar promotion in North America, but this does remind me that I got distracted midway through Kirby: Triple Deluxe and really ought to finish it. Most fun I’ve had with a Kirby game in a good long while. In fact, I think I’ll get back on that later today.
