Dr. Mario and Toki Tori Join the 3DS VC This Year

I've played GBC Toki Tori briefly. I found the WiiWare version to be better. On the GBC, the screen is (obviously) smaller and you have to press a button to walk up steps, on WiiWare this is done automatically. But it has a cool intro not on WiiWare.

Do we really need Dr Mario again? (WiiWare version, DSiWare version, WarioWare version)

Toki Tori on the other hand looks like a must-download.

Toki Tori. Sweet.

Do we really need Dr Mario again?

It exists so on the service it goes. Dem's da rules.

Toki Tori! Yay!

well if punch out comes to north america ill be happy since i never played that game. but dang, i was hoping for a link to the past. meh.

@classicgamer Have SNES games even been mentioned in press releases as coming out for 3DS VC? I didn't think that was a thing yet.

I already have Dr Mario on my 3DS from the DSiWare version. But I'd get Toki Tori. I like it on the Wii. It's so cute that I'd buy it again.

Punch-Out in 3D? Oh yeah. Hope there isn't any lag in this version.

Why the GB Verison? Why is the DSi version unusable?

Because of no Multiplayer-Support in VC- and DSi version! As a Huge Dr. Mario fan I must say: no buy for VC-Version. the GB Version is as worse as the DSi version. And even worse without multuplayer.

I have DSi Dr Mario, but I'll get in on Gameboy anyway

Sweet, Punch-Out!!

May download all of them even though I have other versions of all of those mentioned!

@MasterGraveheart Not 3D, this is Virtual Console remember

3DS needs Mike Tyson.

I already have the DSiware version of Dr. Mario on my 3DS but I'll probably get Punch-out on 3DS vc at some point. I'd rather get that instead of the Wii vc version because of the restore points.

The button layout on the 3DS Virtual Console is poor. It should be customizable by the player.

...not that it matters much when there's so little of interest on the service.

I was hoping for Punch Out! to be a 3D classic, but oh well. At least it's present.

"Do we really need Dr Mario again?"

Yes we do and the NES version as well

@Classicgamer It's been hinted that Link to the Past is getting remake treatment. I get the idea they are doing more than just "3D Classic"ing it up. But, so far, this is just Miyamoto's wish and not confirmed.

I had no clue Toki Tori was also on GBC back then. Learn new things everyday. Same surprise about finding out that Shantae was on GBC too.

I already have the Wiiware version of Toki Tori (wich has more levels by the way), so I don't need this one!

Punch Out woohoo

Not to be picky, but i've noticed the NES games for general release on 3DS VC don't appear in the "Coming Soon" list of this website. Are they only listing the games that are unique to the handheld medium? I'd rather a full list of games to scroll through given how tedious the list on the actual e-store is.

The music on the original gameboy Dr Mario is better than the DSiWare version at least, they messed up the 'Chill' music on that and it misses a section out...always sounds odd to me when I hear it and know what it should sound like.

Yay for Toki Tori !
Boo for releasing a version of Dr. Mario with ripped out multiplayer instead of the NES game.
