Konami has announced the Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection, set to release on February 27, 2025, for Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. The collection includes a comprehensive list of classic Yu-Gi-Oh! games originally released on Game Boy and Game Boy Advance, such as Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories, and Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards, among others. The collection will feature online battle support for some titles, offering fans a nostalgic gaming experience.
Donkey Kong Land, a Game Boy adaptation of Donkey Kong Country, is now available on Nintendo Switch Online. This version features unique levels and a distinct soundtrack adapted for the Game Boy's sound chip, which some fans prefer over the SNES version. The addition expands the retro game offerings on the platform, which already includes the original Donkey Kong Country trilogy.
Donkey Kong Land, a 1995 Game Boy title developed by Rare, is now available on Nintendo Switch Online's Game Boy app. Unlike a direct port of Donkey Kong Country, it features unique stages and a meta plot. This addition increases the Game Boy and Game Boy Color game library on Switch Online to 30 in the west. The standard subscription also includes NES and SNES games, while the Expansion Pack offers access to Nintendo 64, Mega Drive/Genesis, and Game Boy Advance libraries.
Street Fighter 2 has been added to Nintendo Switch Online's Sega Genesis collection as Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition, which includes both Champion Edition and Turbo: Hyper Fighting rulesets. The move is surprising as Street Fighter 2 has a close association with Nintendo, but this version was the first to be released on a Sega system. The update also includes three platform action games, Flicky, Kid Chameleon, and Pulseman, for Expansion Pack subscribers.
