I guess they review VC releases based on how they would have graded the original game at the time of release and not based on what's currently available at the time. I would count that more as an incorrect way to review the VC release over incorrect for the 3DS.
That's why we try to stay away from doing reviews for ports of old games released on VC or PSN, it's difficult to establish how to review it. Either you have to review it based on current standards and it's going to get utterly crapped on in the graphics department or you try to remember all the way back to the standards for when it released which is dicey in itself.
