NintendoLife: While primarily known as the star of a reliably charming series of platformers, Kirby has also starred in a fair share of spin-offs. One of those, Kirby's Block Ball, came to the eShop just a few months ago. It's a flawed but fun reimagining of Breakout. It plays to the strengths of both Breakout as a template and Kirby as a character, with each of these two otherwise disparate icons of gaming coming together to elevate the experience into something special and memorable.
"Kirby has a long history of fun-filled adventures and it all started on the original Game Boy so let's explore his humble pocket-sized origins." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Kirby25 is a week-by-week video celebration of the Kirby series' 25th anniversary. For more, check out the Kirby25 archive. This week, Michibiku's own Jenni Lada (@JMariye) drops by to check out Kirby's first he's-a-ball-now outing, Kirby's Pinball Land for the Game Boy! HAL combined its Kirby world and Revenge of the 'Gator expertise to make a game that's silly fun if you're as bad as [Michibiku is] and less silly fun if you can actually accomplish anything.
Hardcore Gamer: This month brings with it one of the best games ever made in Super Metroid, one of the best N64 games in Super Mario 64 (both for Wii) plus Kirby’s Pinball Land and 3D Classics Urban Champion (both for 3DS). One
Ugh why can't Super Metroid be available for the 3DS!? Man Nintendo are so damn slow in bringing SNES/GBA games to the handheld... Not even sure if they'll EVER do it. :\
Have they started putting SNES games onto the 3DS yet? I'm pretty certain its VC only supports GB, GBC, NES and Game Gear. Plus Super Metroid is going to be part of the Wii U's VC $.30 promotion.

I happen to be a 3DS Ambassador. The twenty games included were ten NES games (almost all of which are now on the VC, if not all of them) and ten GBA games which were announced early on to have "no plans to be released to the general public."
So GBA games are not really on the VC, the GBA games were simply part of the Ambassador program. And I don't really know how to answer your question, sadly.
They probably could do it, but I think they may wind up releasing GBA games on the Wii U first. I'm pretty sure they announced handheld platforms for the Wii U's VC. It makes no sense to me either.
No, they haven't bought any SNES/GBA games to the 3DS yet. If the VC only supports GB, GBC, NES, and Game Gear, why did the Ambassador program people get Metroid Fusion for 3DS? If it's possible to run the dang thing on a 3DS, why don't they put it up for sale?
"I'm pretty certain its VC only supports GB, GBC, NES and Game Gear"
True, but does it need to be that way? The 3DS can handle Ocarina of Time, why can't it handle Super Metroid?
Just wanna know how much is 200 coins in real money?
Are they ripping people like Sony dose?
