Nintendo Life has published a complete ranking of the Virtual Boy titles now available through Nintendo Switch Online's Expansion Pack. The guide evaluates every release from the system's small catalogue, noting why these niche entries still attract attention despite the hardware's commercial troubles. Subscribers can access the collection on both Switch and Switch OLED/2 via the Expansion Pack tier.

  • Complete catalogue: The Virtual Boy only shipped 22 games worldwide, and the guide covers each one in order so readers can see which hold up and which feel like curios.
  • Expansion Pack access: All included Virtual Boy titles are playable for those signed up to the Expansion Pack level of Nintendo Switch Online, on both current Switch hardware generations.
  • Niche but notable software: Although the console was a commercial misstep and didn’t see a European launch, several cartridges contain inventive ideas and distinctive visuals worth revisiting.
  • Historical context: The piece also touches on a handful of completed projects that never officially released, highlighting how the platform’s short life left an unusual legacy.
