Nintendo has added the five Game Boy titles in the Mega Man series to Switch Online. The five games, known in Japan as Rockman World 1-5, are not direct ports of the NES games, but have some similarities, with most featuring bosses from the console games.
All five games, with the exception of Mega Man II, were outsourced by Capcom to another studio called Minakuchi Engineering and were critically acclaimed. Only for Mega Man II was the game outsourced to another developer called Japan System House.
The addition of all five Mega Man Game Boy titles brings the total number of Game Boy and Game Boy Color games on Switch Online to 29 in Europe and the US, with two more games (Yakuman and The Frog for Whom the Bell Tolls) available in Japan.
