Can't speak for Sony, but I can almost guarantee you'll see little free things from Nintendo ever. Most of it requires you buying something to get it as a promotional extra (styluses are the best example), OR it's something most people don't really care about anyway (Check Mii Out channel). But free games? I highly, highly doubt it.
Microsoft has the hookup from a lot of various outlets, and they can foot bills Sony could-but-won't, and Nintendo flat out won't.
Point being to not get your hopes up from free stuff from Ninty, especially when they know they can turn a profit from it elsewhere.[/quote]
Nintendo gave out the Opera Browser download for free, for what, like 6 months? I don't know if other d/l content/games will follow eventually like carcassone or whatever it is on live for 48 hours, but they could.
The most I've seen Sony do is discount the prices of some games in the store for a week. Half price for super-rub-a-dub at one point -- and just recently calling all cars was half price too, i beileve.
