Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy & GBA Library With Four More Titles

Japan also got Tomato Adventure.

Sure hope they don’t surprise us with a new Warioland game for 2027.

A fun one for sure! I don't know the other two or the Japan tomato game.

Edit: is the 2nd header text supposed to say Game Boy Advance? It says Game Boy twice

I wonder why Dr. Mario & Puzzle League. Not that I'm complaining, but I hope this means Tetris & Dr. Mario on the SNES and Nintendo Puzzle Collection on the Gamecube have a chance to be added to NSO.

Wario Land is such a fun little game. The best Wario Land game. In second place I have Wario Land 4.

I wish Nintendo would make a new Wario Land game for Switch 2 that leaned toward 1 and 4.

Wow, awesome!! I think I've heard the Tomato game is good too? But yeah, thanks for the cool stuff, Nintendo!

Now only Wario Land II is left.

Also WarioWare Twisted and Mega Party Games for that series.

Dr. Mario & Puzzle League isn't the most exciting addition, but I'm still happy to see it. I played a lot of that version of Dr. Mario back in the day, so it will be fun to revisit it, despite Dr. Mario 64 already being available.

@FlyingDunsparce I really want Twisted! They made Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble work.

I played the Fortified Zone game on the 3DS. I wanted more GameBoy games on the 3DS so I took a chance with that one. I actually liked it, so I think I’ll revisit that game.

Wow, what a coincidence. The other day I found an old notebook in a box from when I was 10. It had some Wario Land levels I drew in it.

Never getting gamecube games again

Can’t wait to play Wario Land!

I can now play Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 on my Switch 2.

NSO is finally worth it.

Really wish they'd put up Pokemon Puzzle Challenge at some point but hey, close enough for now, in general Panel de Pon's just one of those things I really dig playing different versions of provided they aren't the completely soulless DS one.

THIS IS A VERY GOOD UPDATE.
This is maybe the best update in a long time even.

Finally, Wario Land is available on the Switch's Game Boy App. This is a great update!

I hate to complain but it’s been several months since we have gotten a GameCube game. I hope the next GameCube game will be released next month. Been waiting for quite a while to play Pokemon Colosseum since the announcement over a year ago.

I can 100% recommend Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 to anyone who enjoys retro platformers. The rest I've heard of except for Fortified Zone.

Now if only they'd add Wario Land II to the service. Seems weird they added Wario Land 3 first. The second is my fave, though this game and 4 come close too.

First off, this website lacks a dedicated page for Dr. Mario & Puzzle League. Y'all might wanna check that out.

Second, WL1 should've been there from day one on the GB app instead of WL3. It's a way better game, imo.

@Don Feels weird that they specifically mentioned Star Fox Adventures during the Star Fox Direct. Surely that game's coming sometime this year, yeah?

...Maybe at the pace they're adding GCN games, it'd be more likely to be sometime this century...

It's about time we got Wario Land. That's the game I wanted to beat ever since used to have it on the original Game Boy. I got stuck on the 2nd level because I didn't know how to clear it (I lost the game's manual where it tells you that you're supposed to collect 10 coins and the throw the 10 coin into the doors slot). Now I can finally play it again.

Tomato Adventure looks rad as hell

Trickle Feed

Finally! Wario Land on NSO

Sword of Hope II is better than the first one, but I still wouldn't recommend it.

Tomato Adventure, though, is pretty fun, though maybe not recommended if you aren't okay with mashing the A button really fast, some of those Gimmick attacks are rough.

I just bought Warioware Twisted in Japan for my analog pocket and for a second when I saw "Wario" in the list I went: Of course they'd add that right after I buy it.

Neat to get Doctor Mario. I did wanna buy that cart too, but I already had the NES versions on GBA and it felt like a bit of a hat on a hat.

Yeah, Wario Land is a total banger. I remember borrowing it from a friend back in the gap and being hopelessly addicted to it until I beat it. I burned through quite a few batteries with that one! I also remember having that Game Boy attachment that had a giant magnifying glass with a built-in light playing that game.

Didn’t realize Kemco is that old. Will start Tomato Adventure.

1. Fortified Zone looks like if the top down Contra levels wanted to look like Startropics.

2. LOCALIZE YOUR OLD GAMES, NINTENDO. YOU COWARDS > : (

@Don It has been quite the slow trickle for something that’s supposed to be one of the draws of the Switch 2. I guess GameCube games just take a lot more time to polish up (though I don’t know much about the process Nintendo uses for porting Nintendo Classics titles)

@KayFiOS
I hope we get Star Fox Adventures on NSO. I never finished the original release and will definitely give it another shot on the Switch 2 if it gets re-released. I hope Metroid Prime 2 gets released as well.

My copy of Wario Land no longer works so I’ll be glad to finally give this a go

I only ever owned a handful of games for my Game Boy back in the day, and Fortified Zone was one of them! Pleased to have it back on the service (also had it on 3DS)

@TrueBlueYoshi Here’s a fun tip: those 10-coins you can generate aren’t only for unlocking checkpoints and end gates. You can also just chuck them at enemies. They can even defeat some enemies that are otherwise immune to Wario’s basic attacks!

@Ganner Oh man, same. That light and magnifier were a necessity on family road trips.
