Experience Classic Zelda Games on Nintendo Switch Online

For subscribers to Nintendo Switch Online, there’s exciting news – two iconic Game Boy Color games, The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons, have been added to the platform’s Game Boy catalog. This means that fans can now enjoy these beloved classics on their Nintendo Switch consoles.

A Unique Gameplay Experience

Similar to the original Game Boy Color cartridges, players have the flexibility to experience these games in any order they choose. However, there’s an intriguing feature that allows players to link the games together through a password system. By doing this, they can unlock various enhancements. Characters and enemies will change, certain items can be upgraded, and players can participate in an epic final battle, adding a new layer of excitement to the gameplay.

It’s worth mentioning that The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons mark Hidemaro Fujibayashi’s directorial debut within the Legend of Zelda franchise. Fujibayashi went on to direct other notable Zelda titles, including The Minish Cap, Skyward Sword, Breath of the Wild, and Tears of the Kingdom.
