There are plenty of great Switch and Switch 2 titles to tide you over until the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake releases in just under 2 week’s time (pre-order discount still live at Amazon), but Nintendo is about to unleash three new games for the Switch Online Game Boy library – you can also now start a FREE 7-day Switch Online trial even if you already have previously.
Nintendo is allowing folks to “test out the benefits of a Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership with a free 7-day trial.” But now you can do so even if you have previously:
And now that anyone can access them, let’s take a look at the Game Boy Classics October 2026 Update. They are, perhaps, not the big name franchise titles you might have been hoping for, but there are, at least, some fun distractions here to help keep you occupied between major releases. The new additions include Mole Mania, Avenging Spirit, and Revenge of the Gator, all three of which will release on October 27.
Avenging Spirit
This classic action game features a unique gameplay system where you possess and control other characters!
While out on a walk with his girlfriend, the daughter of a prestigious scientist, our hero is gunned down by an evil syndicate. Their goal is to harness ghost energy, and they plan on ransoming the poor girl to force her father into helping them. But our hero’s adventure isn’t over. In fact, it’s just beginning! He’s come back as a ghost so that he can rescue his girlfriend from her kidnappers and finally rest in peace! Who ever said love was easy? Throughout six fun and exciting stages, help reunite the protagonist with his beloved. Watch the moving ending as this hero’s quest for revenge is finally put to rest!
Mole Mania
Join Muddy Mole in a race to defeat the evil farmer, Jinbe!
Work your way through each puzzle by pushing, pulling, or throwing black balls to defeat or trap enemies. Blast strategic exits and burrow into soft soil to tunnel your way through underground paths to the next action-packed level. Defeat the bosses and solve all of the puzzles in Jinbe Land to reunite Muddy Mole with his beloved wife and kids. In the two-player VS Mode, you’ll play two rounds, one attacking as Muddy and one defending as Jinbe, to compete based on the number of
cabbages dropped. You’ll dig the fast pace and challenging fun of Mole Mania!
Revenge of the ‘Gator
Revenge of the ‘Gator is a game in which you hit a falling ball with flippers to score points by aiming at targets and shooting the ball through lanes. Play across four main and three bonus stages, where each stage will have its own unique objective to complete. Start with three balls, and work your way up. But if your ball falls all the way down to the Gator Stage, it’ll be the end of that turn. Lose all of the balls, and it’s game over! Play solo in Gator 1Player mode, and try for a spot in the top five highest scores! You can also play with a friend in Gator 2Players or Match Play mode!
