Through the Switch Direct presentation, Nintendo unveiled plans for GameCube games to debut on the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack for the very first time. Remarkably, these titles will exclusively be available on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
Starting from the release of Nintendo Switch 2, subscribers to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service can access a selection of GameCube games. The initial lineup includes beloved titles such as Wind Waker, Soulcalibur 2, and F-Zero GX. Some games will offer enhanced functionality on the Switch 2, with multiplayer games now allowing up to four players to engage in online play, in addition to local play.
Initially, just three games will be accessible at the console’s release. However, Nintendo hinted at more GameCube games becoming playable on the Switch in the future. Some of these potential additions they’ve mentioned include:
- Super Mario Sunshine
- Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
- Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness
- Super Mario Strikers
- Chibi-Robo!
- Luigi’s Mansion
- Pokemon Colosseum
Nintendo is releasing a fresh GameCube-style controller alongside the Switch 2 on its launch day. This new controller, designed for the Switch 2, sports a similar look as the original but offers additional features like wireless connectivity and a new C button for live chat. However, to buy this GameCube controller, gamers must have an active Nintendo Switch Online subscription (not just a trial), and each account is restricted to one purchase only.
Regardless if they use the GameCube controller, Pro controller, or regular Joy-Cons, players can customize the control settings according to their preference for every GameCube game available in the collection.
Explore further details about the major reveals during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. The anticipated release date for the Nintendo Switch 2 is set for June 5 this very year, with an initial market price of $450.
