I can't see playing those games in 3D, so I'll have the slider down for them.

I also hope the Oracles come quickly, since I already have Link's Awakening.

I can dream.

What is the appeal of porting over the old, didn't-age-well, unbalanced, very difficult original games? Unless you're referring to FireRed and Lifegreen.

Unbalanced and very difficult? What?

All pokemon games are the same, IMO.

@lz: I'm having a hard time believing a 2D top-down game in 3D would look good. SML would look kinda cool because the platforms would pop out of the background and stuff, but if, say, the houses or trees or even Link in Link's Awakening popped out, it'd look like they're floating above ground, which would look terrible, haha.

They kinda are, outside of some minor intricacies and additions. And that includes the fact that they're all pretty balanced and rediculously easy.

Speaking of which, how are they gonna do the cross game thing, anyways? Or was it just a password? I can't remember anymore.

It was a password system, which can work in a VH

What exactly is The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening?

Yup, but it also had link cable support. Never tried it, but I think you could trade rings that way, and possibly receive some special rings.

It might make it hard for some completionists who want to collect all the rings considering If you can only get some specific ones via trading, unless they add online trading. Plus, there's the special "Advanced Ring", which can be only gotten when played on Gameboy Advance.

EDIT: Also, all this talk sounds like playing old 2D GB games in 3D is gonna be like reading a pop-up book.

They have terrible defense, making them very vulnerable to physical attacks. Even a Fighting Pokemon of the same level using a Fighting Type move can take one out with relative easy. That's always been Psycic's failing. And that still doesn't take away from the fact that it's just as easy as any other Pokemon game. It's only hard if you don't know how to play Pokemon.

To be fair, in the original, spamming Alakazam would assure you of a victory. Max out its speed and it would destroy anything before anything got a chance to counter attack.

Not sure how that makes the game difficult, mind you. Quite the opposite.

As for GB games I'd like to see 3Ded. Q 'Bert!

It has been confirmed that Super Mario Land & Zelda: Link's Awakening DX from the Game Boy era, are the first two games to come out for the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console in 2011.

I would like to see the original European release of Link's Awakening since it's the only uncensored release outside of Japan. All American releases (and unfortunately also the European DX version) are disfigured by one of the most ridiculous censorship decisions ever made by Nintendo of America ("OMG a bikini top in a videogame. We have to replace it with a necklace to protect the children."). As much as I love Nintendo's games but the persons responsible for their (former) censorship policies had to complete morons.
