3D Classics is a series of classic NES and arcade games rebuilt with stereoscopic 3D visuals, released for Nintendo 3DS. The games were developed by Arika with assistance from Nintendo.
A series of "Sega 3D Classics" would be released after the set of games published by Nintendo, developed by Sega and M2, though these have no relation to the Nintendo series.

History
Development on the series started with a 3D version of the Namco Bandai's Xevious in 2009, as some of the earliest Nintendo 3DS software. Games were selected based on their status and how good they looked in 3D.[1]
3D Classics: Excitebike was released for free to commemorate the opening of the Nintendo eShop.

Trivia
- A "3D Classics" version of Tennis was attempted because of the game's perspective, but the developers found that it looked unimpressive in 3D and that they would need to recode the collision detection from scratch.[1]
