Europe will see another Game Gear title released for the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console this week—Sonic Blast, which has nothing to do with the similarly-titled Sonic 3D Blast.

Sonic Blast lets you play as Sonic and Knuckles, and gives Sonic a new ability in the form of a double jump. Sonic Blast was the last Sonic game released for the Game Gear, and Europeans will be able to grab it this Thursday for €5 (or £4.50).
