nintendo Switch Online’s GBA app received a major update today, version 3.0.0, introducing highly requested features for enhanced gameplay. The update, detailed on Reddit (r/NintendoSwitch2), brings button remapping functionality to the app, allowing players to customize controls for individual games. This follows the recent addition of button mapping to the Nintendo Classics SNES app.
Players can now enjoy a visual upgrade as well, with the app now supporting 1080p resolution when playing in handheld mode.
The update also includes cosmetic changes, such as a rebrand to “Nintendo Classics” and a new boot sound – the coin sound from Mario Advance – accompanied by a GameCube-style startup animation triggered by a stick tilt.
Regarding game availability, Magical Vacation has been added to the Nintendo Classics GBA app, but currently only for players in Japan. North American and European players can now access Forsaken 64 on the Nintendo 64 app (NintendoEverything).
