The Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack launched last recently and while not surprising, dataminers have been hard at work, looking deep into the files of the updated Nintendo Switch Online.
The datamine already managed to discover something interesting it seems.
According to a game list for each retro library, there are at least 38 Nintendo 64 games & 52 SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive games planned for the service. It is not known if this is all they will be adding. Or if in fact planned means coming at all.
Which games?
The names of the planned games aren’t included as they are not mentioned in the list. There are numbers reserved for the games, but the names are missing and there is only a blank space instead.
More systems?
Another thing was also discovered from these game lists, but it’s not as surprising. The first digits of Game IDs on the lists are related to the console it is from. The NES is 1, SNES is 2, Nintendo 64 is 3 and SEGA Mega Drive is 5.
This seems to imply that at least one more retro game library is coming to Nintendo Switch Online, and it is highly suspected to be Game Boy games. We are not sure what type of Game Boy games though … it could be normal Game Boy and Game Boy Color … or perhaps even Game Boy Advance.
Either way, more is good in our opinion.
