Super Mario Bros. 3 will be available for ¥500 on Japan’s 3DS Virtual Console next Tuesday, January 1, Nintendo has announced. No announcement has been made regarding whether the port will ever see the light of day on North American and/or European shores, but the fact that it exists at all is a good sign.
New Years is a big deal in Japan, so it’s not surprising that Nintendo would digitally re-release one of the most beloved games in its back catalogue to celebrate.
