Apparently, there are still plans to add Game Boy games to switch online

The Game Boy is an 8-bit handheld game console developed as well as made by Nintendo. The initial handheld in the Game Boy household, it was first released in Japan on April 21, 1989. The console was released in The United States and Canada later the exact same year, after that in Europe in late 1990. It was developed by the same team that developed the Game & Watch series of portable video games and also several Nintendo Home entertainment System games: Satoru Okada, Gunpei Yokoi, as well as Nintendo Research & Growth 1. Nintendo s second handheld game console, the Game Boy, incorporates attributes from both the NES home system as well as Game & Watch equipment. The console includes a boring eco-friendly dot-matrix screen with adjustable comparison dial, five control switches (a directional pad, 2 game buttons, as well as START and SELECT ), a solitary speaker with flexible volume dial, and also, like its opponents, uses cartridges as physical media for games. The color design is made from 2 tones of grey with accents of black, blue, as well as dark magenta. All the corners of the portrait-oriented rectangular device are softly rounded, conserve for the lower right, which is bent. At launch, it was offered either as a standalone system, or bundled with one of a number of games, amongst them Super Mario Land and also Tetris. Several accessories were also created, including a lugging pouch, Game Genie, and printer. In spite of being technically inferior to its fourth-generation competitors (Sega s Game Equipment, Atari s Lynx, as well as NEC s TurboExpress), the Game Boy obtained appreciation for its battery life and also sturdiness in its construction. It promptly outsold the competition, selling one million systems in the United States within a few weeks. An approximated 118 million units of the Game Boy as well as its successor, the Game Boy Color, have been sold worldwide, making it the 3rd very popular video clip game console of perpetuity. It is just one of one of the most well-known gadgets from the 1990s, ending up being a social symbol in the years following its release. Several redesigns were released throughout the console s lifetime, consisting of the Game Boy Pocket in 1996 as well as the Game Boy Light in 1998 (Japan just). Production of the Game Boy proceeded right into the very early 2000s, even after the launch of its second successor, the Game Boy Advancement, in 2001. Manufacturing stopped in 2003.

In the last Nintendo Direct , GREAT N finally revealed that there would be a new subscription category for Nintendo Switch Online , which would offer its users a collection of games Nintendo 64 and Sega Genesis . But then, what happened to the rumored titles of Game Boy and Game Boy Color ? Well, apparently, they are still on the way.

According to Tom Phillips, News Editor for EUROGAMER , Nintendo still has plans to add these games to the service:

The N64 and the Mega Drive (Genesis) are two online Nintendo Switch platforms that I also listen next to the Game Boy / Color. I imagine that the N64 / Mega Drive games will be released first because people are more likely to improve their subscription with them.

In a subsequent Tweet, Phillips admits that it is not one hundred percent sure that these particular systems are going to be part of the most expensive membership of online switch . For its part, another known insider known as Nativerake suggests that the games of Game Boy and Game Boy Color will be part of the current subscription.

I would say that Game Boy and Game Boy Color games are part of the current Nintendo Switch Online as Nintendo does not want to combine both.

Exactly when is that Nintendo will announce these games? It sounds unlikely that we will have another Nintendo Direct this year, so we will surely have to wait until the beginning of 2022 to have more information about the arrival of Game Boy and Game Boy Color to Switch online.
