Nintendo Switch Online adds Mole Mania and more Game Boy classics
October's retro catalogue update covers three Game Boy games and an earlier Game Boy Advance expansion-pack release.
Nintendo added Avenging Spirit, Mole Mania and Revenge of the 'Gator to Game Boy – Nintendo Classics on October 27, 2026. The three titles are included with an active standard Nintendo Switch Online membership.
The Game Boy Advance update arrived separately on October 14 with Monster Rancher Advance, Metal Slug Advance and Kururin Paradise. Those games require Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.
Although the six games are part of October's retro catalogue story, they were not released on the same day. Subscription requirements and regional availability are worth checking before signing up.
Two libraries, different subscriptions
Game Boy Classics are available under the standard membership, while Game Boy Advance Classics require the Expansion Pack tier.
