Virtual Console

Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver hit the 3DS Virtual Console last week. As was the case in Europe, Nintendo offered boxed versions. Media Create doesn’t have any sales data on this front, but Famitsu has thankfully come through with a bit of data.

Famitsu reports that Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver sold 56,013 units collectively. The site does not include digital sales in that figure, and the split between the two versions is unclear. Gold/Silver are actually at the top of Famitsu’s chart, slightly edging out Pokken Tournament DX. It’s definitely a solid debut.

The Wii U Virtual Console keeps going strong thanks to Konami. Tomorrow, Double Dungeons will be hitting the eShop in North America.

Nintendo’s website contains the following overview:

Defeat monsters in each dungeon to gain experience while searching for the “key” that opens the door to the room with the boss. Buy equipment at the shop, team up with characters, and defeat the boss to clear a scenario. Conquer all 21 scenarios from levels 1 through 5 to obtain passwords. Obtain all of them to make your way to the final scenario! Two players can play at the same time, which makes this game truly stand out from the rest.

Double Dungeons will be priced at $5.99.

For the release of Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver on the 3DS Virtual Console, Nintendo offered boxed versions in Europe. They ultimately don’t amount to much, but for collectors, they’re nice to have. Get a closer look in the unboxing video below.

Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver are the newest releases on the 3DS Virtual Console. However, the third game in the series has been left out. Currently no announcements have been made about bringing Pokemon Crystal to the Virtual Console. Interestingly though, one dataminer says he’s found code that could point to Crystal launching eventually.

Apparently, data was found within a patch in the ROM fileworks for Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver on 3DS. This is the same person who initially leaked the existence of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions, which was eventually announced at E3 earlier in the year.

Maybe Pokemon Crystal will be distributed further down the road? Only time will tell.
