Virtual Console: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 23:23, September 30, 2024

The Virtual Console was a service available on the Wii, the Nintendo 3DS, and the Wii U. It allowed players to download games that were originally for older consoles, including some Super Mario games on the Nintendo Entertainment System (all models), SNES (Wii, Wii U, and New Nintendo 3DS), Nintendo 64 (Wii and Wii U), Game Boy Advance (Nintendo 3DS ambassadors and Wii U), Nintendo DS (Wii U), Game Boy, and Game Boy Color (Nintendo 3DS).

With the discontinuation of the Wii Shop Channel in January 2019 and the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U in March 2023, Virtual Console games can no longer be purchased. Many of the games that were available on Virtual Console are available through the Nintendo Switch Online service.

History[edit]

Super Mario Bros. on the game select of the preliminary Virtual Console at E3 2006

A preliminary version of the Wii's Virtual Console was demonstrated at E3 2006, along with the Classic Controller. Participants could play demos of five classic games on it, each game being for a different console; of those games, three are installments of the Super Mario series: Super Mario Bros. (Nintendo Entertainment System), Super Mario World (Super Nintendo Entertainment System), and Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64). The game selection menu has a selection screen for each game. Each screen shows a large banner of the game's name, a side view of the game's original box art, and a faint image of the console it was created for. During gameplay, once the player has progressed up to a certain point, the gameplay would stop and display a thank you notice, allowing the next attendee to try out the Virtual Console kiosk.^[1]^{[better source needed]}

Cost[edit]

Wii Virtual Console games were bought with Wii Points via the Wii Shop Channel, and were redeemable either through digital purchase or from a Wii Points Card. Since March 26, 2018, Wii Points could no longer be added to the Wii Shop Channel, and Wii Points added prior to said date remained usable until January 31, 2019.

Nintendo 3DS and Wii U Virtual Console games were bought with eShop credits via the Nintendo eShop, either from purchashing them digitally or from redeeming a code on a Nintendo eShop Card, a successor to the Wii Points Card.

Pricing[edit]

Wii[edit]

The price range for Super Mario and other titles was typically 500-600 Wii Points for Nintendo Entertainment System games, 800-900 Wii Points for Super Nintendo Entertainment System games, and 1,000-1,200 Wii Points for Nintendo 64 games. However, a few select games were priced differently. Games released in regions that their original iterations had not been released in cost an additional 100 Wii Points. Two Super Mario games fall under this example: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and Mario's Super Picross in Europe and Oceania and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels outside Japan.

Note: The Donkey Kong Country series has been delisted shortly before the Wii U's release (except in South Korea), likely due to Microsoft's desire to renegotiate licensing agreements with Nintendo before re-releasing it. Yoshi's Cookie for the NES had been delisted in October 2013 (except in South Korea). Panel de Pon is the original Japanese version of Tetris Attack, which was released as a Yoshi game for the Super NES in the Western world.

Nintendo 3DS[edit]

Games on the Virtual Console of the Nintendo 3DS do not have 3D capabilities, except for 3D Classics. They are sold via Nintendo eShop. They have various sound effects that play upon selecting a game depending on their originating game system. The Game Boy and Game Boy Color games have the standard Game Boy boot-up screen sound effect play. The Game Boy Advance games have the Game Boy Advance bootup screen occur. The NES/Famicom Disk System games have a coin sound effect from Super Mario Bros. playing in the background. Finally, the Super NES games have the coin sound effect from Super Mario World playing in the background.

The following Super Mario games have been released on the Virtual Console of the Nintendo 3DS:

Notes[edit]

Wii[edit]

Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels was only available in Europe and Australia from September 15, 2007 until October 1, 2007. It was then still available to freely re-download for those who purchased it while it was initially available. On August 22, 2008, it was made available again, this time without any time restrictions.
- This is also the first time that the NES version was made available outside Japan, having been remade for the SNES elsewhere. Thus, its title screen reads "Super Mario Bros. 2", its Japanese name, and on the Wii Shop Channel and Wii U eShop it is considered a import game.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars was regarded by Nintendo as the 250th game to be released on the Virtual Console in North America. Its European Virtual Console release was the first official release of that game in the region.
Timed demos of several Virtual Console games are included in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, all of which star the game's various fighters. The only default Super Mario title is Super Mario Bros.; Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros. 2, and Super Mario World are also included, but they must first be unlocked.
For reasons unknown, the NES version of Yoshi's Cookie was de-listed in all regions except South Korea, and it can be re-downloaded by those who purchased at its time of availability.
In November 2012, the Donkey Kong Country SNES trilogy was unlisted from the Wii Shop Channel in all regions except South Korea. On November 25, 2012, the games became "unavailable for purchase" on the European Wii Shop, though they were removed in North America without any prior warning. Nearly two years later, in October 2014, the Donkey Kong Country trilogy was released on the Wii U Virtual Console, and were added back to the Wii Virtual Console around the same time. It is unknown why the games were unlisted, but it could be due to legal issues with Microsoft, who acquired the games' development studio, Rare, in 2002. At its time of removal, each Donkey Kong Country title was still available to be re-downloaded by players who had purchased the games during their time of availability.
Transfer Pak functions and online N64 Tournaments like the Mario Tennis Ring Tournament mode are not supported.
N64 & Neo-Geo games don't support suspend functionality.
N64 Controller Pak functionality is not supported.
N64 games do not support the Rumble Pak functionality, despite GameCube controllers having built-in rumble controls.

Nintendo 3DS[edit]

Only NES titles support multiplayer due to the GB, GBC, and GBA (Ambassadors only) games being too complicated to recode the games to add wireless features and there being no link port for multiplayer. NES games that have simultaneous multiplayer utilize 3DS Download Play, while NES games that only have alternating multiplayer are played on a single 3DS. To alternate players when playing NES games, simultaneously press and to display a pair of controllers in the lower-right corner of the top screen; press while they are displayed to switch control between players 1 and 2.
- This feature can also be used when playing Game Boy titles to change the screen color from gray to the classic green.
While loading Game Boy, Game Boy Color, or (Ambassadors only) Game Boy Advance titles from the HOME Menu, by holding or the game on the top screen will be shrunk to its original resolution.
- Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles will also display virtual versions of their respective consoles surrounding the screen to give the illusion of playing on the actual console. GBA, DS, and DSiWare games just shrink the screen to the screen size from the original consoles.
Many games have been given the ability to create one save file each. This can be disabled or enabled by simultaneously holding , , and .
GBA Ambassador games do not rely on hardware emulation; instead, they rely on hardware simulation with the 3DS booting into the GBA's firmware to play the games natively, the same way the 3DS handles DS backwards compatibility. Due to this, GBA games do not support Virtual Console features like Save and Restore Points, sleep mode, and Home Menu Access.
- This occurs because the 3DS is not powerful enough to emulate the GBA in the same way it does other Virtual Console games. (This is also why GBA games are not available for purchase on the 3DS eShop.) Through hacking, it is possible to load GBA games into a regular Virtual Console emulator, but performance is slow and the ability to do this was removed in a later update.

Wii U[edit]

The player can create save states and remap controller buttons. For GBA games, there are options to change scaling, enable pixel smoothing, and view scans of the original paper manual.
The Wii Remote can be used for SNES and GBA games if is held while the game loads.
The NES games have a bilinear filter applied while the N64 games have a filter applied that doubles their resolution.
N64 games support Rumble Pak functions, but won't support Transfer or Controller Pak functions.
GBA and DS titles can only be played in single player mode.

Changes[edit]

Although Virtual Console games are mostly faithful to the originals, some games have received slight changes. Some of these modifications are deliberate, while others are the result of emulation glitches.

Wii[edit]

Super Mario Kart
- The flashes that occur when the player uses Lightning are dimmed (but not slowed down) to reduce the risk of seizures.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
- The attacks Flame Wall and Static E! are both recolored to avoid the risk of seizures.
- For the PAL Virtual Console release, the offensive word "bugger" (used when Croco says "You're a persistent bugger") is replaced with the word "pest". This was retained in the Nintendo Switch remake.
- Moleville has a notably darker color scheme.
Super Mario 64
- During gameplay, the drop shadows located at the top and bottom of the screen have been removed and can only return if Mario loses all of his Health Points.
- Chain Chomp's mouth is purple instead of red due to an emulation error.
- The player cannot put a small Block between and on top of a larger Block.^[3]
- Vanish Mario appears purely transparent instead of flickering in dithered colors, as the emulator used does not support the original effect.^[4]
- All lag and loading times have been removed, and the game is impossible to crash.
- The sound is slightly quieter.
- Due to a floating point error, the oscillating triangular platforms in Bowser in the Fire Sea see their resting position gradually rise with each cycle.^[4]
Mario Kart 64
- When Lightning is used, the flash that appears during the use of that item has been adjusted to avoid the risk of seizures.
- The Kalimari Desert course's train has its wheels recolored from red to black for unknown reasons.
- In Koopa Troopa Beach, the waterfall at the end of the shortcut is recolored blue from the original gray.
- The game timer is spaced slightly further apart. This is most notable between "00" and between the second quotes and the number preceding it.
- Saving ghost data is impossible, due to the lack of Controller Pak functionality.
Mario Party 2
- When selecting the number of players in a game, all four options appear at once, regardless of how many controllers are plugged in. In the original, only the options equal to the number of controllers plugged in are shown.
Mario Golf
- The Transfer Pak feature to transfer characters from the GBC version (Sherry, Joe, Azalea, and Kid) is removed, as are the extra four square boxes used for transferred characters on the Character Select screen. Consequently, said characters cannot be played as.
Mario Tennis
- The Ring Tournament mode in Special Games is removed and cannot be selected, since the service is no longer supported after the official website was replaced with its sequel Mario Power Tennis in 2004.
- The ability to unlock characters and courts via the Transfer Pak (e.g. Alex, Nina, Harry, Kate, and each characters' personal courts, except for Donkey Kong's) is removed. They still exist in the game coding, but cannot be played as during normal gameplay.
Paper Mario
- The brightness of the light from the Super Block has been adjusted to avoid the risk of seizures.^{[citation needed]}
- The walls in the temple in Dry Dry Desert appear more curved.
- The Crystal King's clones are more transparent, making it easier to spot the real Crystal King.
- Monstar has a cluster of stars surrounding it rather than stars falling into its center.
- The ground of Star Haven is entirely purple instead of being rainbow-colored based on the distance from the camera.^[5]
Donkey Kong Country
- The blinding flash that occurs when Squawks faces the screen in Torchlight Trouble was removed to reduce the risk of seizures.
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
- The blinding flash that occurs when Glimmer faces the screen in Glimmer's Galleon was removed to reduce the risk of seizures.
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
- The lightning flash that occurs when it strikes the ground in Lightning Lookout has been dimmed to reduce the risk of seizures.

Nintendo 3DS[edit]

Nintendo Entertainment System, Game Boy, and Game Boy Color games
- NES games include restore points and download play but all Game Boy and Game Boy Color ports of Super Mario games do not support multiplayer. All ten NES games from the ambassador program did not gain these features until they were respectively re-released for public purchase. Original Game Boy games also include two switchable color palettes; black and white and black and green, in which the latter is a nostalgic approach to original "brick" Game Boy players since the first Game Boy model has a green-tinted screen.
Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels
- The color scheme is noticeably lighter than in the Wii and Wii U VC versions.
Super Mario Bros. 2
- The ground, sky, and waterfalls have a darker color scheme than in the Wii and Wii U VC versions.
Super Mario Bros. 3
- The game's pixels appear more filtered, and the background border is less dim compared to the Wii and Wii U VC versions.
Super Mario Bros. Deluxe
- The game's print and trade features have been disabled due to the lack of a Game Boy Printer accessory and infrared port.
- In the Fortune Teller, all references to multiplayer features were removed, and replaced with duplicates of other existing text strings.
- In the album, the pictures that are normally unlocked via the use of link and infrared features are impossible to obtain without hacking.
Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
- The lightning strikes that occur at the entrance of Mario's castle are toned down to reduce the risk of seizures.
- The pipe glitch that was possible to perform in the Game Boy version was fixed in the 3DS version.
Mario Golf and Mario Tennis
- Characters that could be unlocked in the Nintendo 64 version are omitted due to the lack of Transfer Pak functionality in the Wii VC versions and visa-versa in the 3DS versions.
Donkey Kong Land 2
- In Lava Lagoon, Glimmer's Galleon, and Clapper's Cavern, the flashing that occurs in certain situations is slowed down to half of its original rate to avoid the risk of seizures.
Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3
- The level skip glitch that was possible to perform in the Game Boy version was fixed in the 3DS version.
Wario Land 3
- Various cutscenes, such as the one where The Steep Canyon initially becomes accessible, have altered color palettes to reduce the risk of seizures.
Mario Kart: Super Circuit
- As with Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64, the background flashes that occur when Lightning is used were slowed down to avoid the risk of seizures.

Wii U[edit]

NES, SNES, N64, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo DS games
- All games include restore points, Wii U GamePad Off-TV play, and previously included Miiverse support. Unlike on the Wii VC, N64 games support Rumble Pak functions which are replicated by the GamePad rumbling when needed. Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, and DS games also include their original instruction booklets.
- Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS games do not support multiplayer. They also do not include GameCube/Wii connectivity. Nintendo 64 games do not support Transfer Pak functions.
- All changes made to Wii and 3DS VC versions of games were retained unless stated otherwise.
Game & Watch Gallery 4
- This game was originally not released in Japan. For the Japanese Virtual Console release, it uses the unreleased Japanese version, titled Game Boy Gallery 4.
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3
- The Virtual Console version has all 38 e-Reader levels built-in the game, including the ones that were previously only released in Japan, and they can be accessed from the Data Select screen. Originally, this required the use of the Nintendo e-Reader to scan Level Cards, which is incompatible with the Wii U. Also, the original game could only support up to 32 levels at a time. This is also the first time these levels are released in Europe and Oceania, as the Nintendo e-Reader was never released there.
WarioWare: Touched!
- A glitch is present in the microgame Spario wherein Wario's gloves can disappear for the duration of the microgame. The glitch is not currently known to have occured in the original versions of the game.

-[[File:Virtual Console.svg|right|350px]]
+[[File:Virtual Console.svg|thumb|350px]]
-The '''Virtual Console''' is one of many special features of the [[Wii]], the [[Nintendo 3DS]], and the [[Wii U]]. The Virtual Console allows gamers to download games that have been uploaded by their respective companies. The Wii version currently only has video games from stationary consoles, mostly [[Nintendo]]'s own [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]], [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]], and [[Nintendo 64]]. Nintendo will not be uploading [[Nintendo GameCube]] games to the Wii Virtual Console, due to the fact that GameCube ISOs use 1.35 GB on the hard drive (the internal memory on the Wii is only 512 MB), and the Wii is backwards-compatible with all GameCube discs and most accessories. [[Hudson]], [[Sega]], [[wikipedia:SNK|SNK]] and [[wikipedia:Commodore Gaming|Commodore]] have provided the Wii Virtual Console with [[wikipedia:Mega Drive|Sega Genesis/Mega Drive]], [[wikipedia:Sega Master System|Sega Master System]], [[wikipedia:TurboGrafx-16|TurboGrafx-16]], [[wikipedia:Neo Geo (console)|Neo Geo]], [[wikipedia:MSX|MSX]] (Japan only), and [[wikipedia:Commodore 64|Commodore 64]] games. Also, Nintendo has provided the Virtual Console with arcade titles under the name [[wikipedia:Virtual Console Arcade|Virtual Console Arcade]]. The Nintendo 3DS also has games from the [[Game Boy]], [[Game Boy Color]], [[Game Boy Advance]] (Ambassadors only), [[wikipedia:Sega Game Gear|Game Gear]], [[Famicom Disk System]] (Japan only) and [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]]. Nintendo also has promised games from the TurboGrafx-16.
+The '''Virtual Console''' was a service available on the [[Wii]], the [[Nintendo 3DS]], and the [[Wii U]]. It allowed players to download games that were originally for older consoles, including some ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] (all models), [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] (Wii, Wii U, and [[nwiki:New Nintendo 3DS|New Nintendo 3DS]]), [[Nintendo 64]] (Wii and Wii U), [[Game Boy Advance]] (Nintendo 3DS ambassadors and Wii U), [[Nintendo DS]] (Wii U), [[Game Boy]], and [[Game Boy Color]] (Nintendo 3DS).
-==Points==
+With the discontinuation of the Wii Shop Channel in January 2019 and the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U in March 2023, Virtual Console games can no longer be purchased. Many of the games that were available on Virtual Console are available through the [[Nintendo Switch Online]] service.
-===Wii Points===
-Wii Virtual Console games are bought with Wii Points via the [[Wii#Wii Shop Channel|Wii Shop Channel]]. Wii Points Cards, which are sold at most game retailers, each come with 2,000 redeemable Points on them. However, in Japan, cards are worth either 1,000, 3,000, or 5,000 Wii Points. Wii Points can also be purchased directly through the Wii Shop Channel with a credit card in blocks of either 1,000, 2,000, 3,000, or 5,000 Points.
+==History==
+[[File:SMB VC E3 2006 photo.jpg|thumb|''Super Mario Bros.'' on the game select of the preliminary Virtual Console at E3 2006]]
+A preliminary version of the Wii's Virtual Console was demonstrated at E3 2006, along with the [[nwiki:Classic Controller|Classic Controller]]. Participants could play demos of five classic games on it, each game being for a different console; of those games, three are installments of the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series: ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' (Nintendo Entertainment System), ''[[Super Mario World]]'' (Super Nintendo Entertainment System), and ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' (Nintendo 64). The game selection menu has a selection screen for each game. Each screen shows a large banner of the game's name, a side view of the game's original box art, and a faint image of the console it was created for. During gameplay, once the player has progressed up to a certain point, the gameplay would stop and display a thank you notice, allowing the next attendee to try out the Virtual Console kiosk.<ref>{{cite|url=themushroomkingdom.net/vc_e3-06.shtml|title=TMK at E3 2006|publisher=The Mushroom Kingdom}}</ref>{{better source}}
+==Cost==
+Wii Virtual Console games were bought with [[nwiki:Wii Points|Wii Points]] via the [[Wii#Wii Shop Channel|Wii Shop Channel]], and were redeemable either through digital purchase or from a Wii Points Card. Since March 26, 2018, Wii Points could no longer be added to the Wii Shop Channel, and Wii Points added prior to said date remained usable until January 31, 2019.
+Nintendo 3DS and Wii U Virtual Console games were bought with eShop credits via the [[Nintendo eShop]], either from purchashing them digitally or from redeeming a code on a Nintendo eShop Card, a successor to the Wii Points Card.
 ===Pricing===
 ====Wii====
-{|border=1 style=text-align:center;width:100%;border-collapse:collapse cellpadding=3
+The price range for ''Super Mario'' and other titles was typically 500-600 Wii Points for [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] games, 800-900 Wii Points for [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] games, and 1,000-1,200 Wii Points for [[Nintendo 64]] games. However, a few select games were priced differently. Games released in regions that their original iterations had not been released in cost an additional 100 Wii Points. Two ''Super Mario'' games fall under this example: ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and ''[[Mario's Super Picross]]'' in Europe and Oceania and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' outside Japan.

 ==Notes==
 ===Wii===
 *''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' was only available in Europe and Australia from September 15, 2007 until October 1, 2007. It was then still available to freely re-download for those who purchased it while it was initially available. On August 22, 2008, it was made available again, this time without any time restrictions.
-**This is also the first time that the NES version was made available outside Japan, having been remade for the SNES elsewhere. Thus, its title screen reads "''Super Mario Bros. 2''", its Japanese name.
+**This is also the first time that the NES version was made available outside Japan, having been remade for the SNES elsewhere. Thus, its title screen reads "''Super Mario Bros. 2''", its Japanese name, and on the Wii Shop Channel and Wii U eShop it is considered a import game.
 *''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' was regarded by Nintendo as the 250th game to be released on the Virtual Console in North America. Its European Virtual Console release was the first official release of that game in the region.
-*Timed demos of several Virtual Console games are included in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', all of which star the game's various fighters. The only default Mario title is ''Super Mario Bros.''; ''Donkey Kong'', ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', and ''Super Mario World'' are the others, but they must first be unlocked.
+*Timed demos of several Virtual Console games are included in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', all of which star the game's various fighters. The only default ''Super Mario'' title is ''Super Mario Bros.''; ''Donkey Kong'', ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', and ''Super Mario World'' are also included, but they must first be unlocked.
-*Despite the GameCube controller having built-in force feedback, no N64 game supports the vibration feature (originally requiring a separate peripheral). Also, ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' required a Controller Pak to save ghost data, which the VC version does not support.
+*For reasons unknown, the NES version of ''Yoshi's Cookie'' was de-listed in all regions except South Korea, and it can be re-downloaded by those who purchased at its time of availability.
+*In November 2012, the ''Donkey Kong Country'' SNES trilogy was unlisted from the Wii Shop Channel in all regions except South Korea. On November 25, 2012, the games became "unavailable for purchase" on the European Wii Shop, though they were removed in North America without any prior warning. Nearly two years later, in October 2014, the ''Donkey Kong Country'' trilogy was released on the Wii U Virtual Console, and were added back to the Wii Virtual Console around the same time. It is unknown why the games were unlisted, but it could be due to legal issues with Microsoft, who acquired the games' development studio, [[Rare Ltd.|Rare]], in 2002. At its time of removal, each ''Donkey Kong Country'' title was still available to be re-downloaded by players who had purchased the games during their time of availability.
+*[[Transfer Pak]] functions and online N64 Tournaments like the Mario Tennis Ring Tournament mode are not supported.
+*N64 & Neo-Geo games don't support suspend functionality.
+*N64 Controller Pak functionality is not supported.
+*N64 games do not support the Rumble Pak functionality, despite GameCube controllers having built-in rumble controls.
 ===Nintendo 3DS===
-*Only NES titles support multiplayer; ones that have simultaneous multiplayer utilize 3DS Download Play while ones that only have alternating multiplayer are played on a single 3DS. To alternate players simultaneously press {{button|3ds|L}} and {{button|3ds|R}} to display a pair of NES controllers in the lower-right corner of the top screen; press {{button|3ds|Y}} while they are displayed to switch control between player 1 and 2.
+*Only NES titles support multiplayer due to the GB, GBC, and GBA (Ambassadors only) games being too complicated to recode the games to add wireless features and there being no link port for multiplayer. NES games that have simultaneous multiplayer utilize 3DS Download Play, while NES games that only have alternating multiplayer are played on a single 3DS. To alternate players when playing NES games, simultaneously press {{button|3ds|L}} and {{button|3ds|R}} to display a pair of controllers in the lower-right corner of the top screen; press {{button|3ds|Y}} while they are displayed to switch control between players 1 and 2.
-**This feature can also be used when playing Game Boy titles  to change the screen color from gray to the classic green.
+**This feature can also be used when playing Game Boy titles to change the screen color from gray to the classic green.
-*While loading a Game Boy, Game Boy Color, or Game Boy Advance title from the HOME Menu, by holding {{button|3ds|start}} or {{button|3ds|select}} the game on the top screen will be shrunk to its original resolution.
+*While loading Game Boy, Game Boy Color, or (Ambassadors only) Game Boy Advance titles from the HOME Menu, by holding {{button|3ds|start}} or {{button|3ds|select}} the game on the top screen will be shrunk to its original resolution.
-**Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles will also display virtual versions of their respective consoles surrounding the screen to give the illusion of playing on the actual console. Applying any level of 3D will also give the game screen a little depth into the virtual console (it's the same depth no matter how high the 3D Slider is) and add to the illusion of playing on the actual console.
+**Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles will also display virtual versions of their respective consoles surrounding the screen to give the illusion of playing on the actual console. GBA, DS, and DSiWare games just shrink the screen to the screen size from the original consoles.
-*Many games have been given the ability to create one save file each.
+*Many games have been given the ability to create one save file each. This can be disabled or enabled by simultaneously holding {{button|3ds|R}}, {{button|3ds|X}}, and {{button|3ds|start}}.
+*GBA Ambassador games do not rely on hardware emulation; instead, they rely on hardware simulation with the 3DS booting into the GBA's firmware to play the games natively, the same way the 3DS handles DS backwards compatibility. Due to this, GBA games do not support Virtual Console features like Save and Restore Points, sleep mode, and Home Menu Access.
+**This occurs because the 3DS is not powerful enough to emulate the GBA in the same way it does other Virtual Console games. (This is also why GBA games are not available for purchase on the 3DS eShop.) Through hacking, it is possible to load GBA games into a regular Virtual Console emulator, but performance is slow and the ability to do this was removed in a later update.
+===Wii U===
+*The player can create save states and remap controller buttons. For GBA games, there are options to change scaling, enable pixel smoothing, and view scans of the original paper manual.
+*The Wii Remote can be used for SNES and GBA games if {{button|wii|2}} is held while the game loads.
