Rumor has it that Nintendo Switch Online will soon be adding Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles, but GBA will be left out.
The speculation ties in with a 2019 datamine in which four emulators were uncovered within the official NES Switch app. One of these, which goes by the name “Hiyoko”, is thought to be for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games.
Marvelous has revealed a new DLC collaboration between Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town and Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin. Starting on September 15, players can obtain the “Princess Sakuna’s Heavenly Garb” outfit. It will be offered until March 30, 2022. This is free DLC, so no extra payment is required.
Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town and Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin both fall under the Marvelous umbrella, so the DLC crossover does make sense. Both games have also been very successful going back to their original debuts. By the end of March, the new Story of Seasons Switch title was confirmed to have sold over 700,000 copies. As for Sakuna, that one has gone on to sell over one million units. The game has also appeared in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with spirits, and if that wasn’t enough, a special Pop Up Parade figure is based on the way featuring Sakuna herself.
Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town originally launched for Switch in Japan on February 25 of this year. It then came to North America on March 23, followed by Europe on March 26. Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin, developed by Edelweiss, launched on November 10, 2020 in North America, November 12 in Japan, and November 20 in Europe.
