Remember that news post a while back about owners of the 3DS recieving 20 free games?
Well, I just recieved an email from Nintendo explaining the system in a little more detail.
In order to qualify for the free games, you need to visit the 3DS eShop at least once before 23:59 CET on August 11th. This registers your 3DS for the giveaway. On September 1st the first 10 games will then be made available to all registered consoles, with the second set of 10 being made available sometime by the end of the year.
There's also a video in the eShop at the moment that repeats all of this information if you want to hear it for yourself.
