Game Boy – May 2024 Game Updates – Nintendo Switch Online
Now, Nintendo Switch Online subscribers can play these three original launch titles as the latest additions to the Game Boy – Nintendo Switch Online library, in time for the handheld’s 35th anniversary.
Super Mario Lands takes place in the picturesque kingdoms of Sarasaland, where you’ll travel through ancient ruins, stay afloat in turbulent waters, and complete challenges. As Mario, you’ll run, jump, and bounce on a mission to save Princess Daisy from a mysterious alien and restore peace to the land. The game also features distinct gameplay quirks, including the Superball Mario bonus and levels in which Mario pilots a plane and a submarine.
Base-ball is a 1989 Game Boy classic in which you throw a series of fastballs while adjusting curve and speed – but don’t exhaust your launcher. Eliminate the opposing team, then take your turn at bat. As the batting team, you can move your batter around the plate and time his swing on the incoming ball. Strategize your team’s moves and you just might taste victory.
Alley tasks you with using a bouncing ball of energy to demolish blocks, earning points along the way. As Mario, you will pilot your spaceship to the Alley gate and destroy the space grids by deflecting the energy ball towards them. Keep your ship moving and the ball in play until every block is cleared to complete the stage. As you progress through each level, you will encounter challenging alternating stages, bonus rounds and much more. Speed and quick reflexes will become your best allies.
These games join another 1989 Game Boy classic already available on the service, such as Tetris, and other classic games that came afterward, such as Metroid 2: Return of Samus, Kirby’s Dream Land, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening DX, Wario Land 3 and more.
With a Nintendo Switch Online or Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pass membership, you can enjoy online gaming with compatible games, a growing library of classic games, and the ability to save money on select digital games.
