Link's Awakening, originally released for Game Boy, will be available to purchase from the Virtual Console portion of the eShop starting today.

This was revealed as part of the Legend of Zelda: 25th Anniversary announcements during Nintendo's E3 press conference. We'll have more information as it comes in.

I may try to play through this between now and OoT's release, which wouldn't be hard except for all the other things I need/want to do in that span.

I'm trying to figure out how to hook my gameboy printer to my 3ds so I can make some sweet stickers of these photos in the game.

And here I thought we'd be waiting weeks for it. Awesome.

Will definitely get this along with Super Mario Land when I get some money.  ;D

Sadly, no printing.  Not even an error message.  The option is there, but nothing happens when you select it.  I was hoping you'd get to send them to your SD card like Pokémon Snap on the Wii's VC...

I'm sure you could find the pictures online somewhere, and print them out onto actual paper instead of whatever goofy non-permanent method the Game Boy Printer used. I s'pose that isn't exactly the same... but at least you'd have them.
