Nintendo's Switch Online 'Missions and Rewards' program has today added a new wave of icons based on the Game Boy title Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins.
As you can see below, there are icons featuring Mario and even Wario, and they'll set you back 10 Platinum Points each. These icons will be available between now and 6th January 2024, so get them while you can (thanks, NSO Icons Alerts):
If you're keen to revisit this 1992 Game Boy platformer, it's available to play right now on the Game Boy Switch Online service as part of the base tier subscription. It's well worth playing if you haven't experienced it before.
The same source has also noted how there are new waves of icons available for games like Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, Super Mario and Animal Crossing.
In some other Switch Online news today, Nintendo has announced it's adding Tetris to the NES library next week. Last week it also expanded the Game Boy library with Donkey Kong Land 2 and the week before this it added Donkey Kong Land.
Will you be grabbing any of these icons while they're available? Let us know in the comments.

the more Wario icons the better, I really like this artwork of him!
I need a Marble Madness icon. I just want to be a marble.
When Mario had a castle. 🤯
@Juga_Juga unfortunately that and snake rattle and roll kinda got lost to time. Rock and roll racing has also sadly almost disappeared too
Wait does that mean the DKC2 icons are gone? I was hoping to get those. Hopefully we get a reissue at some point
I adore Mario artwork from this era in particular.
Love this game, first one I ever finished. Would love if this and Warioland 1 got the Links Awakening remake treatment.
@PokemonDMG Why do you think Mario collects all those coins?
When Wario was a cool antagonist. Wished Nintendo kept that Wario instead of making him a fool nowdays.
@DoubleDate True, iirc there's next to no warioland representation in smash bros, just warioware
@Beetlebum91 @DoubleDate Honestly the least Nintendo could do is port the Wii version of Wario Land to the Switch (2).
@sanderev yeah I played a little bit of that back in the day and liked it. Would buy again.
There is a great color hack version of Mario land 2. I cant gi back to the orginal after playing that.
Guess which one I got
Wish there were even more icons for this game but still, getting the ones available as soon as I can!
For as long as this game has existed since my childhood, that pissed off shark with the boxing gloves has made me either burst out laughing or chuckle every time I see it. Now I can make it my profile icon!
The most underrated Mario game.
One of my favorite handheld mario games. Always loved the art for it! def getting the wario one.
One of the top Game Boy games in my collection. It was such a blast playing this and such a huge upgrade from it's predecessor, both visually and game design wise.
@KillerTan98 Agreed!
Thanks Nintendo! Now, please remake Mario Land 1 + 2 (and heck, even 3) using the original art style from the box art shown above. Make it hand drawn and smoothly animated ala Wario Land: Shake It, and add some bonus levels and extra cut scenes. Bundle them all together and lets do justice for this underrated era!
@BobbleBubble My word Wario Land: Shake It might be one of the most gorgeous games I've ever played. In fact it definitely is.
I grabbed these on-site lol. Now I just need the games of Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land, Wario Land II, and Wario Land 4 on NSO.
