A bunch of new Virtual Console titles are hitting the North American Wii U and 3DS eShops over the next couple of weeks. Here’s a look at what’s on the horizon, based on listings from Nintendo’s website:

Wii U

Mario Party Advance – Dec. 25
Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 – Dec. 25
Duck Hunt – Dec. 25 (previously confirmed)
Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire – Jan. 1

3DS

Super Mario Bros. Deluxe – Dec. 25

There’s certainly plenty of retro goodness on the horizon!

Three more Virtual Console titles have been rated for release in North America. On Wii U, we can look forward to Mario Party Advance and Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. The ESRB also rated Super Mario Bros. Deluxe for 3DS.

It’s currently unclear when exactly all of these retro titles will be launching. Given their ratings though, this could be a sign that they’ll be available in the near future.

A new Virtual Console title is finally coming to the Japanese 3DS Virtual Console next week. Pokemon Trading Card Game will be available on December 24 for 617 yen. This is particularly notable since Japan hasn’t received any new 3DS VC games since May.
