Hans and Félix return to Nintendo consoles
It took much longer than expected, but the Big N had not forgotten either Hans or Félix: starting next week the two Golden Suns published on Game Boy Advance will be added at no additional cost to the game catalog of Nintendo Switch Online. Two absolutely essential RPGs within the legacy of portable games that return with all the added advantages of the service and treatment of their classics.
Let’s start from the main thing: Golden Sun y Golden Sun: The Lost Age They arrive on Switch through the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack on January 17. Once you update the GBA app you will only have to open it and flip its cover to enjoy these classics whose pixel art, as you can see, is still an absolute delight. And that’s not the best thing about every game.
Originally released in 2001 in both Japan and the United States, and a few months later in Europe, the Golden Sun The original was a fascinating demonstration of what the Game Boy Advance could offer, combining the best of the Pixel Art of the SNES classics and a fantasy plot that quickly captivates the player.
Very notable within these installments is its combat system, dynamic and deep, with magnificent plane transitions that were wonderfully suited to that twist within the mechanics that every RPG dares to give: spread throughout the world of Weyard There are 28 Dijin creatures that not only possess elemental qualities, but also alter the classes of our heroes. A genius.
Golden Sun: The Lost Age It will come out just two years later, in 2003, and although we will experience the story through new protagonists, it will not take long for us to discover that it is a full-fledged sequel. An exceptionally good one: as Felix’s company, our task will be to restore Alchemy to Weyard. And be careful, if we had saved progress from the first game we could import it to this sequel.
There is a third game within the saga, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, which is quite complicated for it to reach Switch because it was published for the dual screens of the Nintendo DS. Unless, of course, The Big N gives us a surprise and pulls out a remake on par with Link’s Awakening or Super Mario RPG on Switch. For dreaming, let it not be.
In any case, it’s time to celebrate the return of Golden Sun. Even when it comes to two rescues in the form of classics for Nintendo Switch Online. Among other things, because the originals were only reissued in 2014 for a Wii U whose eShop closed not too long ago. Being a new window for those who played it and those who had never embarked on these adventures to know two absolute essentials of the Role Playing Game on Game Boy Advance. A saga that has been absent for too long, although never forgotten.
