Nintendo finally made Game boy and Game boy advance games available on Nintendo Switch online. The game boy is available for subscribers of the base tier online subscription, while the Game boy advance is available for expansion pass holders. These consoles have been introduced to this service with a bunch of exciting titles. These titles range from classic first-party Nintendo titles such as Legend of Zelda to a bunch of third-party offerings.

But some see a huge flaw in Nintendo offering classic games this way.

Nintendo Switch Online getting Game boy titles might not be such good news!

Nintendo released a few games from Game boy and Game Boy Advance libraries to Nintendo Switch online. These games are amongst the top selling and highly rated games on those consoles. While many fans are very excited about this offering, others worry that this might not be such a positive thing after all.

Amongst those fans is the Youtuber Video Game Story Time. He believes that for one, these games are not enough. Second, the fans would be better off if Nintendo instead takes to release these games in cartridges. Hiding classic games behind a paywall means there would not be many other ways to play them officially.

And let us be fair, having a premium subscription in order to play classic games seems like a tall order for some. Fans do not want all the games available in these collections, hence they would find themselves spending more than they are willing to pay to replay their favorite classic titles.

Nintendo releasing game carts would give gamers an option to buy the games they want, and even help preserve Nintendo’s library for a little longer. Currently, if a fan wants to buy a Game boy or Game boy advance, or even NES cartridge online, they would have to shed a good amount of money for it.

It’s a very common consensus that instead of locking these games behind Nintendo Switch Online subscription, Nintendo should rather sell them separately. Be it through Eshop or physical cartridges, either way would be acceptable.

Nintendo can also go the way of Metroid Prime Remastered or The Legend of Zelda Link’s Awakening and just remake or remaster those games for Nintendo Switch. This would make those games more enticing to purchase.

What do you think? Do you want Nintendo to make cartridges again?
