Virtual Console is a service provided by Nintendo on the Wii Shop Channel and later the Nintendo eShop, allowing users to purchase digital downloads of games released on previous consoles. Games released on Virtual Console are emulated to present them in their original format as best as possible, with various emulator features.

The Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console service launched on June 6, 2011 alongside the Nintendo eShop with Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles. The service later expanded into Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Gear titles in 2012,PC Engine titles in 2013 exclusively in Japan, and in 2016 Super Nintendo Entertainment System titles exclusively for New Nintendo 3DS systems. Although ten Game Boy Advance titles were given out as free downloads to early adopters as part of the Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors Program, these titles were never released on the Nintendo 3DS Nintendo eShop proper and do not have any of the standard features.
When playing Virtual Console titles on Nintendo 3DS, by tapping the touch screen players can access the Virtual Console menu. This allows players to reset the game or create a Restore Point, which will immediately reset the game to that point. By closing the game and returning to the HOME Menu, the game will be suspended at that point, though if the console is shut off while playing the game will reset when loaded up again. When playing NES games, players can switch controller inputs by holding down L and R and pressing Y, though some games use Download Play for multiplayer features.
When playing Game Boy or Game Boy Color games, players can add a Game Boy or Game Boy Color border by holding down Start and Select when starting a game, which will pop out when the 3D slider is turned up, and displays the game at its native resolution. In addition, when playing original Game Boy games, players can adjust the screen to be the same green monochrome as the Game Boy by holding down L and R and pressing Y, and can do the same to switch back. Although most games do not support Link Cable multiplayer, some games, such as the Pokémon games, support wireless features for multiplayer.
In addition to the standard features, Super Nintendo games on New Nintendo 3DS have a "Pixel-Perfect Mode", which displays the game in its proper resolution rather than full-screen, as well as being able to enable whether or not to send gameplay information to Nintendo.[1]
