    Why are they so adament that we can’t play the OG pokemon games on our switches

  2. Some titles they added made me feel nostalgic .. Cant wait to play them

  3. horrorboii

    Superstar saga, fire emblem, minish cap … Hyped af

  4. _SpiderDisco

    Looks like GB is on regular NSO and GBA is only with the expansion pass.

  5. SubterraneanSmoothie

    Give me Oracle of seasons and ages!!!

  6. Genuinely surprised that they added OG game boy to the regular online tier, good on them, can’t wait to get into links awakening

  7. BlindManChince

    Absolutely lost my gourd at that Mario+Luigi Superstar.

    I am so insanely stoked, hopefully this means rumors of GameCube emulator is confirmed then.

  8. Greenarrow_92

    Shame it was only Pokemon trading card game though… Would have been super nice to see Gen1, 2 & 3. Would have been an instant subscribe for a lot of people.

  9. Prince-Lee

    This is so damn funny to me because I literally just found my old Gameboy Color in the closet and got done installing a backlit screen, and then bought several of my old favorites on ebay.

    This includes Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins.

  10. HankDayes

    A lot of cool games on the list but Donkey Kong 94′ feels like a pretty glaring omission.

    MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3

    i really hope we get DS eventually too. it would be perfect for portable mode.

  12. Julian_Porthos

    Golden Sun… so close. Of course they hold it back from the release date

  13. HairWeaveKillers

    I’m curious why not include super Mario land 1. I’m excited to play super Mario land 2 tbh

  14. elsmooterino

    Lord help me, I’m getting my hopes up again for a Mother 3 release…

  15. JusticeDoppelganger

    While the games being offered *are* really good… I feel like there really should have been more available at launch. There’s just not that many.

  16. KoopsTheKoopa

    they can finally give us the pokemon games we need to work with Pokemon stadium 1 & 2. but i highly doubt they’ll actually do it…

    i hope they also include Sonic Advance 1-3 those were some good games

  17. The music they played during the announcement was nostalgic as fuck

  18. Did anyone notice the adjusted color palette for each game? So no more washed out colors!

  19. jelvinjs7

    Excited for Super Mario Land – I don’t think I’ve played any Gameboy era Mario games before.

  20. emeraldcocoaroast

    Fire Emblem is enough to get me to upgrade my online. Fuck yes

  21. iWentRogue

    My childhood is finally being added. I assume the MegaMan battle network games won’t be part of this considering we have a collection coming up.

    But they can still add Pokémon games unless game freak plans on making a legacy collection, which I doubt.

  22. djmocella

    No update on pokemon stadium? Can i hold my breath that Y/B/R/S/G/C can be somehow merged now??

  23. VenusDjinni

    GOLDEN SUN?! Extremely excited. (The Lost Age too please?)

  24. Anon_throwawayacc20

    Wario land 3 but not Wario land 2 is a bit surprising.

  25. KingDarius89

    Fuckers trying to get me to upgrade to the expansion pass with Minnish Cap and Fire Emblem and Golden Sun in the future

  26. Parzival127

    I can’t wait for them to add Fusion to the GBA so I can do a Metroid Marathon TM

  27. BlindManChince

    DOWNLOAD IS AVAILABLE UNDER THE **NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE**
    OPTION IN THE STORE FOR THE GBC/GBA EMULATORS

  28. MarcsterS

    I know that SML2 is better than 1, but its weird that its not on there.

    Similarly, Wario Land 1 and 2 aren’t on there. 3 is GREAT, yeah. But where’s 4 too?

  29. Spare_Entrance_9389

    I want the dragonball z games they were lit

  30. RandomShyguy4

    Golden sunnnnnnn ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

  31. Weird game that I’m hoping for is Mario Tennis Power Tour. I think it’s so funny that a Mario Tennis game is a full JRPG with no Mario characters until the postgame

  32. PaulMSURon

    Super Mario land 2 is criminally underrated and I’m glad it was so shown off here

  33. SummertimeSandler

    This announcement really brought my Wii U down in value, but I’m happy all the same 😂

  34. ANT0NIUSBLCK

    Give me Pokémon Yellow for the performance issues of Scarlet and Violet and we’re even NINTENDO.

  35. captainfelixxx

    GOLDEN SUN!!! GOLDEN SUN!!! GOLDEN SUN!!!!!!!!!

  36. I feel like they should really add a disclaimer when advertising these NSO retro games because you can’t *always* play them on the go, it needs to check online to see whether you can play them first. Just feels a bit icky that they don’t even mention this anywhere, so if you’re without internet for a while you’re essentially locked out of all of it.

    Hyped that I can finally play Golden Sun tho

    Played original Tetris from Gameboy in multiplayer with my son yesterday. To play that game in multiplayer was like a dream in my time! I always wanted to. My son won (4 rounds to my 2 rounds) but i had a blast!. Will play with him again!.
