Free Games Update | Nintendo Switch Online March Games Update: Game Boy

My post content

Nintendo rolls out an update for the month of March with some inclusions to the Expansion Pack portion of the Switch Online Service with two additions to the Game Boy library. These two entries lean more into the puzzle solving genre. Developed by Nintendo and Pax, it's 1994's Donkey Kong. And produced by studio Jupiter and Ape Inc., it's the grid chiseler Mario's Picross.

These games are available NOW (requires a subscription to Nintendo Switch Online)

Mario's Picross - Help Mario unlock the mystery of Picross. The secrets lie in the numeric codes at the top and on the left side of each window. Decipher these numbers and uncover a hidden picture in every mind-bending puzzle. It will take quick wits and a speedy pace to solve the clues before the clock runs out. Chisel away boxes strategically and reveal the hidden image in record time. But be careful—every mistake will cost you precious minutes! There are more than 250 brain-bending puzzles to solve in all, with different levels of difficulty to provide mind-melting puzzle action for players of any skill level. Original release date: March 16, 1995

Donkey Kong - In pursuit of Donkey Kong, who has kidnapped his girlfriend Pauline, Mario runs through various locations, including construction sites, big cities, forests, and ships. Overcoming difficult areas with actions such as backflips and cartwheel jumps, and moving jump pads and ladders to create a path to the goal, Mario will clear a total of more than 100 stages. Original release date: July 22nd, 1994
