Golden Sun & Golden Sun: The Lost Age join Nintendo Switch Online next week

Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age will be added to Nintendo Switch Online’s library of Game Boy Advance games next week – available for Expansion Pack members from 17th January.

Widely regarded as two of the best RPGs on the Game Boy Advance, Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age are fine additions to the Nintendo Switch Online library.

Set on the world of Weyard, the peace of the land is disrupted as a bunch of meddling mages steal the Elemental Stars and start relighting beacons around the land to try and usher in a new era of alchemical magic. Thankfully, while this starts to wreak havoc and devastation, a bunch of magically adept kids are able to set forth and defeat them.

With these two additions, the Game Boy Advance library on Switch Online will look like this:

  • Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3
  • WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$
  • Kuru Kuru Kururin
  • Mario Kart Super Circuit
  • Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
  • The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
  • Metroid Fusion
  • Super Mario Advance
  • Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2
  • Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario Advance 3
  • Fire Emblem
  • Kirby & The Amazing Mirror
  • Golden Sun
  • Golden Sun: The Lost Age

There’s just one more GBA game that we know is coming to Switch Online, F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, after which Nintendo will have to get a bit more creative in finding and licensing these handheld classics.
