The SEGA Game Gear finally makes an appearance on the European eShop...

It's another cracking week for European gamers as more retro quality hits both 3DS and Wii.

This Thursday sees the first slew of SEGA Game Gear titles grace the 3DS eShop. Three classics for low, low prices kick the platform off on Nintendo's handheld.

Wii isn't to be left out in the cold though, with its Virtual Console renaissance being continued by the release of Mega Man 5.

The full list of releases is below.

Sonic the Hedgehog�: Triple Trouble (SEGA) - 3DS Virtual Console - �4.50/�5

Sonic and Tails spin-dash to rescue them. Tricky Knuckles streaks right behind, with sticky-fingered Nack the Weasel joining the hunt. It's a triple-threat race to see who will get the Emeralds first. Loop, blast and super spin-dash through six zones, five bonus rounds and a wild 3-D stage.

Shinobi (SEGA) - 3DS Virtual Console - �3.60/�3
