This is a list of all Virtual Console releases for the Nintendo 3DS. The Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console service originally launched on June 6, 2011, alongside the launch of the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS, with Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles. The service then began to add Nintendo Entertainment System titles in 2012, followed by a selection of Game Gear titles between 2012 and 2013, TurboGrafx-16 titles in Japan in 2014, and finally began to add Super Nintendo Entertainment System games in 2016.

Similar to the Wii Virtual Console service, by returning to the HOME Menu the game will create a Suspend Point, returning the player to that point in the game the next time they load the game; turning off the console, however, results in the game returning to the title screen. A new feature for the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console is the addition of the Virtual Console menu, accessible by tapping on the bottom screen or pressing X (except with SNES games). Here, the player can save and load restore points, reset the game, and access various other features. When starting games, the player is given the option to enable restore points the first time they access the Virtual Console menu, and can be deactivated by pressing Start, X, and R simultaneously on the menu.

In 2010, before the launch of the system, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aimé was asked whether or not Virtual Boy games would be released through the Virtual Console service, to which Reggie responded that he could not argue for this as he lacked familiarity with the platform.[1] Later, when asked this at the 73rd Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in 2015, Satoru Iwata responded that, despite the Virtual Boy's financial failure, he would "take note of that advice for the future."[2][3]

Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors Program

Before the proper launch of the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console, Nintendo allowed users to download ten free NES and Game Boy Advance titles as part of the "Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors Program", distributed to early adopters of the system before its first price drop.

The selection of NES titles were released on September 1, 2011[4]:

The Game Boy Advance titles, meanwhile, were released on December 11, 2011:

Game Boy

The Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console service began with the release of Game Boy titles in June 2011. By holding down L and R and pressing Y while playing, the player can switch between the standard black and grey screen and the green monochrome screen similar to the original Game Boy display, which also blurs the screen. In addition to this, by holding down the Start or Select buttons when starting the game, the game will be displayed at its original resolution with a Game Boy border, which will pop out when using the 3D depth slider.

Most games cannot be played in multiplayer mode, as they originally required a Game Link Cable to play, though the Pokémon games use wireless features for multiplayer.

According to Natsume, Nintendo had "moved on" from releasing Game Boy Virtual Console titles by October 2015.[5]

Game Boy Color

Game Boy Color titles began to be released in June 2011 alongside the launch of the Virtual Console service, with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX. The Game Boy Color titles consist of both Game Boy Color-exclusive titles and some later Game Boy titles being played in Game Boy Color mode, with their full-color palettes enabled. Similar to Game Boy titles, the player can enable a Game Boy Color border by holding down Start or Select during startup. Game Boy Color games are also incompatible with multiplayer, though the Pokémon games use the system's wireless capabilities for this.

SNES

SNES games began to be added to the service in March 2015, exclusively available for New Nintendo 3DS systems as the system's better CPU allows the games "to run on the system with quality results"[6] SNES games have an added "Pixel Perfect" mode that displays the game at its native resolution with perfectly square pixels, and has the option to send gameplay information to Nintendo.
