The devs who made Squids Odyssey said Nintendo is working on fixing the infrastructure after they made Squids the first crossbuy game on a Nintendo ecosystem (in Europe, at least). I know it's a hail mary, but perhaps this is another step closer to GBA games on 3DS and/or cross-buy? |
Don't hold your breath for GBA on 3DS. It isn't powerful enough to emulate GBA games in the first place (ambassador games aren't emulated, they are launched as native apps through the DS mode, and from there, GBA mode. That's why they couldn't include things like suspend points. Every VC title from now on will have suspend points and GBA on 3DS doesn't support it.

I find it extremely hard to believe it's a question of power. To say it's a matter of ROM compatibility is understandable, but you can't tell me a console playing Wii-level games isn't powerful enough to handle SNES-level games.

Well it IS emulated, so it needs way more power than the old GBA... But I only said, don't hold your breath, because while it may be possible, especially if they optimise their emulator, it isn't possible right now. Read this article, it's spot on.

Bolded: I don't think it has anything to do with ROM compatibility, but as of now the 3DS is not anywhere powerful enough to run their GBA roms.
