Nintendo has added two more Game Boy games to its Switch Online retro library.

I've been waiting for a while for them to add Donkey Kong '94, which was one of the major first party omissions from NSO.

That said, they need to add Super GameBoy support. Come on, Nintendo.
 
Donkey Kong 94 is a big blind spot for me as a Nintendo fan, heard nothing but good things over the years and never played it once. Gonna change that soon!
 
Two absolute bangers, especially DK '94.

If you've never played DK '94, do yourself a favor and go into it blind. It's one of the greatest Game Boy games ever.

It's great.
Not as great as Mario's Super Picross on the Super Famicom (also available on NSO), which is like, secretly the best game you could play in your life. It's pure digital crack. I spent around 80 hours on that game, and I have to actively avoid launching it now, or another early afternoon would turn into a night in the blink of an eye.
But the GB game is your perfect introduction to picross.

Lucky you, in the Argentina store there is not a single picross/nonogram game. Back in the day I had the DS one and it's one of the games which fully scratched my screen but felt as an accomplishment (I scratched it in lots of small squares because of Picross, then scratched it all around while playing the Ouendan games, and then back to scratching in square patterns with Puzzle Quest, another game I wish I could play on Switch but it's not available in our local store).

Sorry to hear that, yea it's weird because these games are published by Nintendo
 
I still play DK '94 on my backlight-modded Game Boy all the time. It was the hidden start of the Mario vs Donkey Kong puzzle-oriented series, but much more fun than those IMO. Puzzles, but better platforming.

Mario's moveset alone is amazing. It was the debut of his "change directions to backflip" jump.
 
mario picross!

It's a crime nintendo doesn't have some sort of service avail to play all their legacy titles all st once. It's not like these old ass games need some optimization/port to run on the switch.
