Rumor: SNES games planned for the 3DS VC

Nintendo may have plans to bring SNES games to the Virtual Console on 3DS. While there isn’t any sort of concrete proof, accessing Miiverse from the handheld and checking out the Contra III: The Alien Wars community shows the game running on a 3DS XL in the header. No SNES titles are currently available on 3DS (including Contra III), so this is an interesting finding for sure.
