You know the drill – it’s a Thursday, meaning new games have been released on the Nintendo eShop. A famous gem joins the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console lineup, and, as usual, a nice array of indie titles grace the Switch.

Pokémon Crystal Version, however, joins its siblings, Pokémon Gold and Silver, in the 3DS lineup. Fans of the series are well-versed in Game Freak’s “third version” tradition, and Crystal did introduce components that remain with the franchise to this day, including in-battle animations and the ability to choose your Trainer’s gender. The Virtual Console re-release even retained the in-game Celebi event, which the original Western release omitted.
