Somebody please explain to me as to why Crystal isn't even coming to the 3DS Virtual Console.

  • Take a step back and look at the Gen 1 rereleases. Pokémon Yellow, universally seen as the superior version of Gen 1, outpaced sales of Red, Blue, and Green everywhere. People were getting the best of both worlds rather than deciding between legitimate contrasts.

  • Why is this important? Well, with most people having Pokémon Yellow, chances are they'll run into other owners of Pokémon Yellow. This doesn't allow much reason to trade. GameFreak's all about the whole "connect with others" thing with Pokémon as they believe that's the real way to drive multiplayer game sales. A version that's too dominant doesn't allow reason to connect with other players.

  • I've heard a few times about a glitch that involves Celebi that can exist in Crystal but not in Gold or Sliver that may be the reason. I don't know much about it but it seems that it could effect Pokemon Bank if someone were to use the glitch. Otherwise there're little reason to not release Crystal with Gold and Sliver on the VC since they released Yellow with Red and Blue.

  • Because PCC + VC = crash = no Japanese Version unless all mobile phone features are properly removed = no International Versions because Japan can't have it.
