Nice addition if it doesn't bring the cost up.

Probably be behind the more expensive tier which will suck.

Man it would be so nice to have your retro collection assigned to your nintendo account. I would have more confidence buying a legit collection if I knew It would stay with me on the next system.

Ah so the real versions of Advance Wars 1 and 2 might show up on Switch after all.
Treasure's Astro Boy and Gunstar sequel are musts as well.

It would be but we all know that's not how Nintendo operates. Its a shame but theyve been getting away with it for years.

With all the excellent (and often pretty inexpensive) alternatives of playing GBA (and other retro games) out there provided by the various retro hardware communities, this is hardly something to get excited for, unless you've never heard the term "flashcart" or "emulation" in your life before.

This question are for any fan around console space, not just Nintendo fan.
If the game is good, why not? Watching people rebuying RE4, Skyrim, GTA, etc... I would buy all PS2 catalogue if PS4 have a offline BC with no problem.
The problem is not rebuying, but rebuying a rubish remaster/remake/BC.
And GBA have decent games, so let people decide.

I mean, weird that this appears before Gameboy.
But I'm guessing that Nintendo will hold on until after Gameboy games release. And considering that each system gets at least 1 year in the spotlight(this year's spotlight being 64 and mega drive) and that Gameboy MUST come before Advance, I'm guessing the earliest we will see this will be september 2023.
But I mean, GBA was obviously going into the service. All systems will eventually enter the service. They will just spread them out through the Switch and the Switch 2 lifespan.

Im guessing its like Playstation.
Sony didnt give us BC with PS4/PS3 and I bought alot of games on the PS3. But when they talked PC architecture with PS4, I guessed they will be BC going forward and PS5 BC has been great.
Im guessing because Nintendo are using similar tech going forward that they will also be going BC from here out

I’m guessing that all the GB/GBC/GBA emulators roll out this year, but GBA will be behind the expansion plan. GB by itself wouldn’t make much of an impact but it’s still dumb that they haven’t just done it already

I dont think they will release this year. I think they will roll with 64 games until september next year.
But the rest, yeah you might be right.

I am not bothered by it. I am paying for a service filled with games I had always wanted to play, but would never have wasted money on otherwise.

Nintendo has spoken publicly about people's Nintendo accounts carrying forward to the next system. There's a good chance the NSO service as a whole will be on Switch 2.

I abandoned PlayStation for PC even though PS4 pushed towards PS5 backwards compatibility. PS4 was my last console and I was seriously invested in the ecosystem. My Steam games are for every generation and yes I rebought alot of the games but for a fraction of the price and free online. I don't think I'm ever going back after seeing what PC can do including emulation. Hoping Nintendo gets on PC as well someday. The holy trifecta will be complete. Have fun guys! And I was genuinely curious. This isn't about what platform is better but just personal preference. I hope what you're saying for Nintendo is true so you can get enjoyment out of it without needing to rebuy.

Genesis has had 8 games released in two batches since the first group. What's really scuffed is the NES/SNES went from July 2021 to February without a single release on either system. Nintendo can't handle the four systems on the NSO already, let alone adding more. It's really embarrassing that a $13 billion income company can't move roms of games from 30 years ago to its online console at more than a snail's pace.
It's not embarrassing to them, they're constantly testing how much they can fuck the consumer with a nothing service. Guess what their research is telling them? The answer has no ceiling.
The bad thing is, the rest of the industry is learning the same thing.
