Nintendo Switch Online Adds Two Unreleased Virtual Boy Titles

Nintendo are wrapping up the list of Virtual Boy games coming to Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) + Expansion Pack. The cult virtual reality headset which was a commercial disaster back in the 1990s only released 22 games in its entire brief lifespan. Nintendo have already brought much of its tiny library to NSO + Expansion Pack, but to close the collection they are also releasing some unreleased titles.

Today, the two final games to be added to NSO + Expansion Pack for the Virtual Boy have been made available including one from an adored Nintendo franchise. Zero Racers, a spin-off to the SNES classic futuristic racer,  F-Zero is joined by action adventure, D-Hoppers. Neither of the new titles were ever publicly available

In case you hadn’t seen, there is a Virtual Boy accessory available that provides the most authentic experience possible without owning the iconic original, you can purchase the headset directly from Nintendo. However, if you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, there’s a cardboard version that holds your Nintendo Switch.

Today’s additions are the final Virtual Boy games coming to NSO + Expansion Pack. The complete list of games in the service are as follows:

  • 3-D TETRIS®
  • D-Hopper
  • Galactic Pinball
  • Golf
  • Jack Bros.
  • Mario Clash
  • Mario’s Tennis

  • Virtual Bowling
  • Virtual Boy Wario Land
  • Virtual Fishing available for NSO+EP members in Japan (credit: Nintendo Life). This one never made its way to western shores due to poor sales of the hardware.
  • Zero Racers

Finally, if you missed it last week, Nintendo released an excellent trailer for the Virtual Boy which pays homage to an original trailer. You can watch that here:
