How to run IOS Simulator as IPhone 3gs non retina?

I upgraded to XCode 5 and apparently the iOS Simulator doesn't support iPhone 3GS (i.e. iPhone non Retina 3.5-inch) anymore.

Is there any way I can run it?

I don't want to use an iPhone 3GS device and I want my game to support non retina devices.

If you change your target's iOS Deployment Target under Build Settings to iOS 6.0 or 6.1 the non-Retina iPhone Simulator option will become available. The iPhone 3GS runs ("at most") iOS 6.1 or lower, hence it does not appear in the list if the deployment target is iOS 7 or later.

It's the "iPhone 6.x" Simulator. You won't find a non-retina iPhone simulator for iOS 7 because no real iOS devices that are non-retina can run iOS 7.
