Iwata has no news on Virtual Boy for 3DS Virtual Console
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
The Virtual Boy would seem like a perfect fit for the 3DS Virtual Console. It was the company’s first 3D console, so its games could potentially see new life on Nintendo’s handheld.
One investor asked Nintendo president Satoru Iwata about the possibility of introducing Virtual Boy games for the 3DS VC service during the company’s latest financial meeting.
Iwata responded by saying that investor Q&As aren’t the place for new announcements. However, he did note that even though the Virtual Boy didn’t go so well, some consumers liked it for its uniqueness.

G.Rev not ruling out future eShop releases
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
G.Rev just put out its first game on the 3DS eShop today. Kokuga, originally launched as a retail product in Japan, can now be purchased overseas digitally.
Now that G.Rev has put out a game on the eShop, could future titles make their way to the store as well? CEO Hiroyuki Maruyama is keeping an open mind, but would like to see how Kokuga performs before making any decisions.
He said:
“It would, of course, depend on the content of the game, but we are very conscious of the possibility in regards to development for the 3DS. I think we want to first see how Kokuga does in the eShop. The physical release in Japan was full priced, but we decided to reduce it for the eShop ($14.99 in the US). We hope many gamers will purchase a copy and enjoy it!”
