Shantae releasing on 3DS Virtual Console this summer

Shantae is a Game Boy Colour platformer that seems to have been re-released on every other Nintendo format so far. The 3DS is no different, as the game is getting a Virtual Console port this summer.

It's the first title by WayForward Technologies - which is currently working on DuckTales Remastered for Capcom - and it comes ahead of the third game Shantae And The Pirate's Curse launching on the 3DS eShop later this year.
