''Game & Watch Gallery 3'' was re-released on the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s [[Virtual Console]] in Europe on September 25, 2014; in Australia on September 26, 2014; in North America on February 5, 2015; and as a promotional release in Japan on November 21, 2014, for those who register ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and one of ''[[Bulbapedia:Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Pokémon Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire]]'' with [[Club Nintendo (rewards program)|Club Nintendo]] before January 20, 2015. | |||

The player unlocks features in the [[Gallery Corner]] as they collect stars. A very hard mode called Star Mode is unlocked for every game after the player earns at least 1,000 points in Modern Mode. The player can earn a total of 150 stars. | ||

When the player unlocks '''Secret 2''', they can play the inverted ''Fire'' at any time but will not be able to pause the game. | ||
On a side note, there is no Modern version of this title, and the player cannot earn stars for playing it. Additionally, the standard version of the game is used rather than the widescreen version, likely due to the size of the Game Boy Color screen. | |||
