Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pass Completes SUPER MARIO ADVANCE Collection
The Game Boy Advance library available to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pass subscribers is growing this week. Three Super Mario Advance titles are being added which completes the collection. These were GBA remakes of classic Super Mario games: Super Mario Advance was Super Mario Bros 2, Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 was Super Mario World, and Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario Advance 3 was Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island. I’ll be honest, this is a little lackluster since the original games are already available on Nintendo Switch Online. I guess the new thing over the originals is that each one includes an updated version of Mario Bros. which can be played with up to four players online. What do you think of these additions?
Super Mario Advance – Fling veggies (and lots of other stuff) at foes with Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad in this powered-up version of the NES™ Super Mario Bros ™ 2 game!
