What's next for Nintendo Switch Online? (GameCube, DS, Pokémon Games, & MORE!)

[@nickpieretti8657]

I would love for them to increase their catalogue for gb and gba games. There are so many good franchises that are must plays, like Pokémon, Metroid, etc.

[@miguelandreu1717]

Metroid Fusion is already confirmed so that's great! Hopefully Zero Mission comes too

[@danielfoster4615]

I'm looking forward to legend of zelda oracle of seasons and ages for gbc and hopefully fingers crossed we will get the pokemon ones and maybe even that gamecube

[@QnjtGWonQNqVsbYyzjx4]

[@WikipediaLover94]

I bought Mario 3D All Stars nearly three years ago! If next summer they add some Gamecube games to NSO I will not be annoyed that I got to play Mario Sunshine for four years and now my friends can play it too. I would be excited!

[@paulregener7016]

Well thing is for the 3D All Stars you own the copy forever with the emulation they can pull the plug at any time

[@ToonGohan]

My prediction is Nintendo is going to continue with hybrid consoles and their next gen system will bring back duel screens. So gb/gba will be the last systems on switch but ds and GameCube will be featured on their next system and will have no problem running them with increased power and no screen compromises.

[@yknow8008]

I think they will also add SEGA Saturn games to switch.

[@QnjtGWonQNqVsbYyzjx4]

I agree, I think it will have a slide rail to attach a second screen which can also be separated. However, I see them releasing that separately also a camera accessories with AR games

[@Silk_WD]

Rather than a second screen, you could have it be more of a WiiU kind of deal. Keep the tablet form factor and have the dock act as a link to cast the second screen to the tv. Though I don't see a DS/3DS emulator being enough of a killer app to carry a whole console feature by itself.

[@miguelandreu1717]

About the remasters, Nintendo is notoriously weird about things. They had Mario 64 for ages on 3D All Stars with no other option, however it was on release for N64 Online. Link's Awakening DX is on GB Online when they've got their own remake too. If anything M64 being on it and 3D all stars being a "limited" release would make sense since according to Nintendo they're not available anymore. I could see Sunshine either sold on its own or in a new emulator. Could possible be for the next Nintendo console though.

[@hollygirlie]

I still think that Gamecube games and Wii games should be added to NSO, because 3D-Allstars can't be bought anymore. Sure it might be a huge middle finger to people who actually bought the collection to add the games to the online service, but people who couldn't buy the collection could still have the chance to play those games without committing piracy or having to spend more than they should on consoles that aren't being made anymore. Nintendo could also just not include the games that got remasters in the online service

[@markharbath31X9]

Yeah and not only that they have a higher chance to get ported than the 3ds

[@Adrienmon]

Unless Nintendo stops caring about the right-out-of-the box accessibility, there will never ever be any GameCube NSO because of one issue : GC games are designed around its controller. But the GC controller have features that can't be reproduced by any Switch controller, mainly the analog triggers, and would force customers to pay for extra accessories in order play these games properly. And I don't think Nintendo wants that, on the top of the an already expensive NSO+Expension Pack

[@markharbath31X9]

@@Adrienmon then just create a new playstyle like they did with sunshine, also this is Nintendo, they would have literally anything that could work for this

[@Adrienmon]

​@@markharbath31X9 This creation of new playstyle is possible, but going over evey and each game to evaluate how to do it is a heavy task, that won't be solved on most of the games. It was possible to make a room for adaptation on Sunshine for 3D All Stars for both states of the R triggers, but not so many games could be that luky. Let's take another example, like F-Zero GX. It uses the triggers at their full capacity with real progression for drifting. It would be a nightmare if it's just dispatched on 2 buttons per trigger, like FLUDD is in Sunshine. But if you do, it also means that you'll have to put the attack initialy on the Z botton somewhere else. L-stick button is available, but would be a nightmare to use because you'll have to turn it while pressing it. R-stick clic is also available, but is even worse because accessible only if you move your right thumb from ABXY buttons, so it's impossible considering you have to constanly have your thumb pressing A. But even if also you somehow manage to do it, you'll still have to find a new room to make for the boost on the Y button. Because on GC, Y button is right on the top the A button. On a Switch controller, Y is on the opposite left of the A button. And in the end, if you managed to do something that surprisingly works, first I would owe you an apology, but now many things would not match on what's written on the screen due to all for these button modifications. They took this time for Sunshine, but I doubt they would take that time for NSO releases, and correcting every and each language textbox to edit the buttons displayed on screen. Now I let you imagine the nightmare it would be if they had to try to think about it for every and each game they want to be on the NSO. So if someday there is a GC NSO, it will maybe be on a future system, but definitly not on this current system with this kind of default controllers.

[@egon3705]

Since the Pokémon company is it’s own thing. You forget to mention that they could always announce gen 1-3 coming to switch switch online through a Pokémon presents.

[@DuskDalmatian]

I think the next viable option is Turbo, the Wii and Wii U both had Turbo VC so we know there is a standing relationship with Konami. Nintendo knows they can polish up Wii and GameCube games and sell them for near full retail, so I don't think they will be giving that to us on the service.

[@sonictoast]

They should add Virtual Boy and just drop the entire library, all 22 games. Certainly players will find something they like in there.

[@MadSociety-uy6zg]

What I'd be thrilled to have Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy on the switch online plus expansion pack service I'm happy I own em as well.

[@BraedanDM20084]

Technically we do have Mario Sunshine and Mario Galaxy on the Switch but that was part of Super Mario 3D All Stars and that game is no longer obtainable unless you already got the game before it got removed. Plus, those don't have save states or rewind features like the NES, SNES, N64, GB, GBC, GBA and the Sega Genesis games do so the Wii and GameCube getting added to NSO would be nice. I do wish that they would make a peripheral that makes all previous games from previous systems playable but I do understand why they isn't and won't be that coming anytime soon since NSO basically already does that. Plus, it might be USB which is going to be fine for some Switch consoles but not for others *cough cough* Switch Lite *cough cough*

[@FormerCookieCraftSGTS]

[@joshcarriker6958]

You've also forgotten.. about the Sega Genesis. Wouldn't it also be a possibility for them to add.. say Dreamcast to the online service as well?

One thing we learned from Super Mario 3D All Stars is that the Switch doesn't really have a way to simulate the Gamecube's light press shoulder button. Without it, Super Mario Sunshine feels very rigid and clunky. If they do add GameCube, hopefully they fix that functionality.

[@Anti-HyperLink]

It turns out that games on the emulator screen are literally just jpegs attached to ROMs. If you have a Switch emulator (or hack your console maybe), you can actually go in and swap out the ROM and it runs amazingly. So basically the trading is already set up in the emulator, which means that they're definitely coming eventually. Eventually...

[@riftshredder5438]

The only way that I think it could do the DS is if it's handheld only and you have to turn the screen vertical and remove the joy cons and use them separately

[@Breegullbeak]

Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town is already on Switch as Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town. It's also on other platforms.

[@wizawhat]

As much as I would love to see the DS, I don't think it will ever happen because the games were designed around the resistive touch screen. I guess it's possible they could release a peripheral to help with that as they have with previous generational controllers, but I think it's a longshot, especially because you would only be able to play much of it's library in handheld mode.

[@mastersproutgamer9327]

If Nintendo added TurboGrafx-16 and Master System games to the subscription service, then I'll be extreme happy if they have Bomberman games for the former, and Sonic, Alex Kidd and Fantasy Zone games for the latter.

[@sethbessinger2025]

When the wii released, the N64 was 10 years old, and being included on the wii shop channel.

Paper Mario and the thousand year door and TLOZ4swords adventure that’s reason enough for GameCube coming to Nintendo switch online.

[@TannersArt]

I don't think the Switch would have any issues running DS games, but the thing that makes me think it won't happen is the fact the Switch uses a totally different type of touch screen. You could use your finger or a compatible stylus if you wanted to on the Switch, but I'd argue it'd still be more awkward than playing like it was intended. Most games designed around the touch screen required precision (I know the Zelda games sure did). And, in my opinion, I think it would be a mess to control games on the Switch's touch screen. It worked well on the Wii U because both it and the DS used a similar type touch screens. Then there's the problem with it being in docked mode. Not to say Nintendo won't do it at all. They could maybe come up with something to make what I suggested a non-issue and still announce it, but as it stands I have doubts it would be ideal (at least for games designed around touch controls). 🤷

[@JTSuter]

Don’t forget the elephant in the room - Mother 3. If that releases on NSO for GBA then it will be one of the most significant NSO releases besides Goldeneye.

[@bullwrinkle29studiosshow37]

If they added GameCube, Wii and DS that would be legit. But the only problem is they’re are more games need to be developed on n64, gameboy, snes, etc. since there’s a couple and a lot of games missing from these that hasn’t been released.

[@Anti-HyperLink]

I'm pretty sure a lot of people didn't get 3D All Stars. Especially considering the limited release.

[@RandomizationShow]

Neither of these are happening till next gen. DS emulates fine on switch, but emulating DS has always been bad on any device due to the consoles touch screen and form factor. In order for DS emulation to be worth it or even remotely functional, they would have to release some kind of peripheral or special controller, perhaps even one with a touch screen and pen. Nintendo simply won't do it unless it can have a polished form factor. As for GameCube, the switch emulates it pitifully, but if the "switch pro" is even half as powerful as the steam deck, gamecube emulation will be possible.

[@RandomizationShow]

Also, for maybe $60 or $70, you can get a ds lite and a flashcard and instantly have more games than Nintendo would ever offer thru NSO. As for wii, get one with a busted disc drive for $20-$40 and hack it, it will function perfectly, and games can be stored on a USB drive. With both of those, you'll literally have thousands of games that will keep you occupied from now till retirement.

[@jakezanne6139]

While I'm fine with Gamecube and Wii games won't be on Switch but hopefully they do for next-gen console and it would be a good time to do that in around 2027. Adding Gamecube, Wii, Wii U and 3DS all together in next-gen console. I feel like Wii U and 3DS online should be released in 2030s. however, I do think DS games will be on Nintendo Switch Online skipping Gamecube for next-gen console.

[@WaffleAbuser]

I could see them also adding Sega Master System, probably into the basic tier.

[@QnjtGWonQNqVsbYyzjx4]

Nah, they are saving the GameCube and even DS to the next console assuming it release in 2024. Since GameCube emulation is more complicated and they want to milk more port/remasters. DS game have dual screen which can be the potential feature of the next console and Nintendo might want to capitalise on it. Game boy, N64 and GBA will last us for while in 2023 and possibly 2024. Therefore, I don’t see any console coming. Plus, these new console might also cannibalise the ‘inferior’ game boy and gba games, thus drawing away people’s attention. Btw, your Metroid Prime argument is not correct considering Nintendo give link’s awakening DX away meanwhile there is a switch remake available for $40 so I think they don’t count as cannibalisation.

I don’t see how the DS could be ported onto the switch without some massive overhauls due to the two screens; the DS being ported on the WiiU was very different because the WiiU actually utilized the different screens iirc; the touch pad was supposed to represent the touch screen and the TV was supposed to represent the top screen of the DS but the switch doesn’t really do that.

[@captndingpot3981]

I honestly don't see DS games coming to the service. Yes it's true that the switch has a bottom screen but you won't have access to it in docked mode. Also the reason why ds worked so well on the Wii U was you have access to both the TV screen and gamepad. You only have access to 1 screen on the Switch. Only way I can see this working almost seamlessly is a potential Switch successor that either has 2 screens and/or the switch in handheld mode can wirelessly connect to the dock to display the top screen on the TV. Honestly don't think any of those things will be in the next Switch successor so what I think is the most likely is more Sega systems like the Sega Saturn and Sega Dreamcast.

I'm actually surprised Nintendo's got Sega as part of their services.

Early on I used to believe cannibalization was an issue but now there are still tons of gamecube and wii games that haven't been given the HD treatment. We are so scared of having two versions that now we have neither, I'm pretty sure people would buy Luigi's Mansion HD even if they already have the original. As long as games are priced within reason I can't think of any good reasons to deprive us of options.

If anything they would rather you get the NSO. You pay 80 a year for the service. Which means they can have you paying 80 every year rather than 40 once.

The DS and Wii wouldn't work very well on the Switch. For the DS it's the Duel screen, and there's DS games where you have to use the Duel screen to do certain things, like Gen 4 and 5 pokemon where you have to touch the screen to do certain things. Besides, Gen 4 pokemon already got their remakes. As for OG Wii games, they wouldn't work either because if they were on the Switch they would probably be joy con locked because of the all the motion controls, just don't know if they would work with a Switch pro controller. Also, I'm surprise there's no mention about the Dreamcast. Cause there some people wanting to see the Dreamcast on NSO.
