as of 12th August.. theres no point on buying a 3DS with its normal price anymore because you won't get the 20 free downloads...

Hmmm.. Not sure how I feel about is news since I just bought my 3ds 3 weeks ago. On one hand, this should be a big BUY signal for anyone shopping for a new 3rd. More owners=more incentive for developers to ship the games out faster and not delay delay delay....

On the other hand, I really need to know whether we will be getting the free games, since we are in a different region. 

Hmmm...come to think of it, I have the US version, so does that mean my chances are better?

Is there any registration to be an ambassador?

Just connect to Wi-Fi before 11th August and you'll automatically be an ambassador

The ambassador note in news is just until 11.59 11th Aug EST
But it will still be in your 3DS notification saying that you are an ambassador and will be rewarded free games starting 1st September. (For those who accessed shop and see the Ambassador news article)

So ppl buying the 3DS later won't see it EVAR again.... Not sure about those who didn't access shop in the first place though...

I've been reading stuff...

"Do you like free games? I do, I do, I do! To enlist in Nintendo 's 3DS Ambassador program, unlocking 20 free games throughout the rest of the year, you have until midnight EST to log into the eShop .

That's all you have to do!"

Apparently, you HAVE to log into eShop after Nintendo's announcement.

Nintendo themselves said to become an ambassador, you either need to update your system to the latest firmware OR just simply log into the eShop to register for the ambassador program.

I'm thinking that Updating is for systems that are bought from 28th July - 11th Aug. For Systems that are already Updated from before the announcement, you have to log into the eShop.

Castlevania... this is the game I've been hoping for the 3DS. Haiz...

So 3DS is dead now?

No... And no one is saying there will be no Castlevania its just that Koji Igarashi haven't announced any yet.
We still (will) have great games. Super Smash bros, Tales of Abyss, Theatrythem, Kingdom Hearts, etc.
Untill all these games are out, lets just say the 3DS have barely just begin its conquest.

EDIT: Bloodrayne looks promising too... can't wait

Aiya, no need to worry so much about games coming on the 3DS, it might have a weak launch but now good games are starting to pop real soon - in time for christmas I should say
