Nintendo Switch Online Adds Another Fire Emblem GBA Game

Nintendo has included another esteemed retro game, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, in its Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription. Now, you can enjoy playing this acclaimed strategy role-playing game from the Game Boy Advance collection on your Nintendo Switch.

Back in 2005, I got my hands on Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, which was the second title from this series to be brought overseas. This game takes players through the journey of siblings Eirika and Ephraim as they traverse the continent of Magvel, aiming to thwart the aggressive expansion plans of the Grado Empire.

To rephrase, it’s important to note that you can only access the Game Boy Advance library if you subscribe to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, a premium subscription service. This plan not only provides all the benefits of the standard Nintendo Switch Online plan but also offers extra features like select downloadable content (DLC) and classic games from both Nintendo 64 and Sega Genesis consoles.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve got to share some info about the Nintendo Switch Online plans: If you’re going solo, a yearly membership sets you back $20. But if you’re looking for more features, the Expansion Pack plan will cost you $50. For families who want to game together, there’s an annual family plan that covers up to eight Nintendo Accounts across different systems, and it comes in at a price of $80.

Nintendo frequently enhances its Switch Online service by introducing fresh content and benefits. Recently, they’ve added three additional classic Sega games to their Genesis collection, with GameCube games set to be exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2.

Members with a Switch Online subscription can additionally enjoy the unique Nintendo Music mobile app, where they can stream an expanding catalog of Nintendo game soundtracks. In line with the launch of Sacred Stones, the Nintendo Music platform has recently incorporated the Fire Emblem Engage soundtrack, the latest addition to the Nintendo Switch series.
