Though Kid Icarus kept audiences busy at the 3DS booth, Nintendo also ran a proof-of-concept unplayable demo showcasing an animated slideshow of NES and SNES titles, including Metroid! Images from the games are displayed in 3D, which reports say adds depth as well as a nostalgic kick. Though currently a tech demo, it's likely Nintendo will consider releasing it as a kind of virtual console. But Metroid is now technically on the 3DS! The 18-title proof-of-concept includes images from games like Zelda, Kid Icarus, Castlevania, and Yoshi's Island.

Until next time...
