Did A Link Between Worlds Just Tease 3DS Games on Switch?

Nintendo fans have a new reason to get excited about the future of Switch Online. A mysterious update on the official Legend of Zelda website briefly showed A Link Between Worlds as a title playable through the subscription service. This caught everyone by surprise because the game has stayed exclusive to the 3DS since it launched in 2013.

The listing appeared on the franchise history page where Nintendo tracks every major entry in the series. Seeing a 3DS classic mentioned alongside Switch Online features led many to wonder if a new library of handheld games is coming to the current console. Nintendo has not confirmed any plans to bring 3DS titles to the service, but the change definitely got people talking.

Whether this was a simple mistake or a hint at future announcements remains unclear. For now, players will have to wait and see if Nintendo updates their retro offerings or if this was just a glitch on their website. We will be keeping a close watch for any official word on the matter.
