I just hope we see Super Mario World from the SNES on the VC.

It's already on the Virtual Console. Anyways, I personally hope we get Super Mario Bros. Deluxe on the Virtual Handheld.

I meant on the 3DS VC. Sorry, shoulda been more clear. Virtaul Handheld? Is that what the 3DS VC will be called?

@mickeymac Yeah, I have a feeling they're gonna release SMB on as many systems as possible .
@tristenj I find it unlikely that Nintendo will release home console games (besides the TG-16) on the 3DS VC. The only reason TG-16 games are being released is that they were playable on a handheld version of the system.

Virtaul Handheld is what it's called.

Okay here we go, this is my knowledge on the online stuff as vaguely hinted at by Nintendo and written on various websites (deep breath)

There will be a worldwide system update in late May that will bring us the eShop. From there you will have your choice DSIware, Virtual Console Game Boy/Color games, specific Nintendo 3DS software including "3D Classics" which likely means NES/SNES games like Contra, Punch-Out, and Yoshi's Island all remastered in 3D. You'll be able to search for games from various parameters including key franchises (Mario, Donkey Kong, Pokemon etc) to find the download that's right for you. You will also be able to download demos of select DLC and watch trailers of the latest retail titles (not unlike Nintendo Channel on Wii).

The update will also include a free video app where select territories will be able to watch broadcast from Eurosport and Sky as well as ten 3D shorts of Shaun the Sheep. This app will is also likely where you'll store 3D movies.

If you're talking specifically online play that's mostly up to developers. However if a friend of yours is online while 3DS is in sleep mode and orange light will appear in the corner. Open your 3DS and you can view what game your friend is playing (maybe even his Mii) and join him online a la XBOX LIVE.

There's more info on various games that use Street/Spotpass that I know a little about so don't hesitate to ask.

BTW Your welcome.

Thanks! A lot of info in a nutshell.

I have to agree with many of the others posting. The new 3DS store will be considerably of a higher standard compared to many phone app stores, seeing as the games on the system must be approved and contain something that some what offers a good playing experience, or a decent purpose.

If it's not a game I'm not intrested.
