On the 28th of July 2011, Nintendo announced that the 3DS would receive a large price cut. The fact of the matter is that the Nintendo 3DS, at least for now, can’t properly play the Virtual Console renditions of Game Boy Advance games to an acceptable standard, and here’s why: – Surely portable games on a portable console is the way to go? Why are they on the Wii U? It’s a home console, after all. Surely it makes sense to release Game Boy Advance games on the 3DS. Now with the recent reveal of the price and release schedule, it has finally hit home, despite the seemingly illogical nature of it – Game Boy Advance games are not being released on Nintendo’s handheld, but instead on the Wii U. It wasn’t until a year later that Nintendo mentioned the words Game Boy Advance again, and confirmed (later in a Nintendo Direct) that Game Boy Advance games were arriving in April – with one caveat – they were coming to the Virtual Console on Wii U, and only the Wii U. When Nintendo announced that Game Boy Advance titles would be coming to the Virtual Console on Wii U, it was generally presumed that Nintendo would announce them for the Virtual Console for the 3DS at some point too.
