Now that Game Boy and Game Boy Advance games are included in the Nintendo Switch Online subscription, Nintendo is starting to add some old favorites. Next week, Metroid Fusion will be one of these games. Metroid Fusion Will be available to subscribers starting on March 9, 2023.
The side-scrolling adventure game was first released for the GBA in 2002. It was an interesting change from Super Metroid’s 2D style. Here’s how it works in general:

 

Wario64 Shares an official tweet related to the release date of Metroid Fusion.

In Metroid Fusion, interstellar bounty hunter Samus Aran is attacked by an X parasite while exploring the mysterious planet SR388. This organism is not only deadly, but it can mimic the abilities of any creature it infects — including Samus herself!

Saved from the brink thanks to an infusion of Metroid DNA, the X parasite’s only natural predator, she soon discovers that the parasite has spread to the research station orbiting SR388. Weakened and out of options, Samus must do whatever it takes to destroy the X threat before it’s too late.

The addition is also important because 1) all of the 2D Metroid games are now available through Switch Online and 2) people who got into the series with Metroid Dread can now play the game that came before it on the same device.
