why no snes on the 3ds eshop?

ive been wondering for a while why no snes games are released for the 3ds, i would love to play dkc on the thing as well as countless others.

there a specific reason why they havent?

Nintendo that things like this so slow. I wish they could release lots of their older games at the same time. not every one or two weeks.

no point.

they are all coming to wiiU vc...same for GBA games...those will be on wiiU also

the gamepad is a much bigger screen than the 3ds....and you dont need 3d for this games so the 3ds is not needed...also the resolution of the gamepad is higher so the regular non-3d games will look better on it.

I'd assume the usual incompetence from Nintendo. I don't know why they wouldn't take advantage of the VC on a newer system.

My theory is they want to push more handheld titles.

I think they're going through their back catalog at a slow and deliberate pace. 

They really need to consider adding demos for their lesser known titles like this.richeymy9

I think in time we will.

As an ambassador, I already have.

I bet Nintendo is working on a unified system for select VCs.Heirren

I hope so. It'd be great for people to be able to play their VC titles across all their devices. I don't really plan on getting a Wii U but when the 4DS comes out, It'd be nice if I could play any VC titles I buy now on that.

I hadn't thought about that, but it makes sense.

Nintendo doesn't want free money.OreoMilkshake

Isn't this pretty much the way to explain Nintendo's whole strategy for the past several years?

They save the big guns for a crisis.

Nintendo likes to drag their heels. Besides, I don't see SNES coming to 3DS happening. I'm still waiting for them to finally get around in releasing GBA titles.
