GameCube Games Coming to Switch 2 Online
In this morning's Nintendo Direct, a bunch of new games were shown off. No Star Fox games were shown, but we did finally see Nintendo bringing GameCube emulation to their Nintendo Online service.
The games announced so far:
- The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
- Soul Calibur 2
- F-Zero GX
- Super Mario Sunshine
- Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
- Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness
- Super Mario Strikers
- Chibi-Robo! Plug Into Adventure
- Luigi's Mansion
- Pokémon Colosseum
While not the rumored Star Fox Adventures 2, we could easily see Star Fox Adventures and Star Fox Assault released on the service.
Additionally, we learned that some games supporting multiplayer on the GameCube will now support online multiplayer, which could affect Star Fox Assault's VS Mode. All Krystal Battle Royale anyone?
Finally, these GameCube titles will play at higher resolution, perhaps even as high as 4K. This would be fantastic for graphically impressive games like Star Fox Adventures.

Where’s Star Fox Adventures, Assault Getting Play Online GameCube Control To Arwing & Landmaster Button Switch 2 Playing Online Fox, Falco, Slippy, Krystal, Peppy And Wolf 4 Players Online Switch 2 Getting Multiplayer
It’s only a matter of time…
I still wanna see Star Fox Adventures 2 and finally Krystal full-time playable.
She needs to get back in the spotlight. I wanna see her use never-before-used-by-her staff moves. If she can recreate her staff at a Blacksmith in case her old one was destroyed in Star Fox Assault on the Great Fox. Or if she kept that staff with her the whole time…
Other than that, I’m happy to see Street Fighter 6 on Switch 2.
it’s nice, but… i still wanted that wii u version of “soul calibur ii hd online” – which should have gotten all 3 guess characters.
I think Nintendo are waiting to pounce on the announcement for whatever the next Starfox game will be when the moment will be most convenient for the company. They have to let all of the new “Switch 2” games bring them revenue until their profitability dies down before the next Starfox game(s) is / are announced. There’s also the rumored Starfox movie that could boost their marketability as well…
