    Has anyone heard any more information about the scope of titles that the 3DS will have available for download, and how fast we can expect to see them, I mean can we expect that titles will be launched weekly for the first few months or will there be 20 titles waiting for us online come launch day?

    I would love to play Pokemon Red/Blue again, just for nostalgic purposes, but how much is each download going to cost?

    The store is being made available at the end of May via a worldwide firmware update.
    If the massively overpriced Wii store is anything to go by, they're going to violate us.

    I'm guessing 500 points (€5) for Gameboy/GBC/NES, 700 points for GBA, and 800 points for SNES.

    It'll be anything between 200 and 1200 for original 3DSware/DSiWare titles (price will depend on whether it's an actual decent game, or crap like virtual fireplaces)

    From what I'm led to believe at the moment just GB/GBC games, no GBA titles - that could change within a year from now but initially there will be nothing

    Virtual Handheld(tg16,gamegear, gb/c), DSiWare, 3D Classics(old games with 3d sprites), Promotions for Game(demos, trailers, webpages).
    Those are the currently announced downloads.
    They're not ready to announce 3DSWare yet, but it is in the making.

    I'm hoping for a compilation of Virtual Boy games, I have the system and Mario Tennis would be very cool.
    I sent Ninty an email last year about it and got a reply! They said that while they can't accept game idea submissions the idea would be cool.
    I may never ever delete that email!

    I was wondering how the turbo grafx could be classed as a handheld but then I came across this.

    Would be nice to see Neo geo pocket colour, GBA, Sega Nomad and Wonder swan games available too.
