Considering they are only just now rolling out these additions to the service, Nintendo has prepared a huge list of titles coming for fans of the old handhelds. These games will allow for special screen filters and include local and online multiplayer for certain supported titles. For instance, four players can play Mario Kart: Super Circuit.

The Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles you can play right now are:

  • Tetris
  • Super Mario Land 2 – 6 Golden Coins
  • LoZ: Link’s Awakening DX
  • Gargoyle’s Quest
  • Game & Watch Gallery 3
  • Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare
  • Metroid II: Return of Samus
  • Wario Land 3

The Game Boy Advance games you can now play with the Expansion Pack:

  • Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3
  • Wario Ware Inc. Mega Microgame$
  • Kuru Kuru Kururin
  • Mario Kart: Super Circuit

Players can expect the below titles sometime in the future:

Releasing The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap when it’s only going to be three months until Tears of the Kingdom was a smart move by Nintendo.
