Walmart Looks to Have Leaked Two Nintendo Switch Online GameCube Classics — and Some Fans Think It's Now Over for a Metroid Prime 2 Remake

A Walmart promo image hints at Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Pikmin 2 joining Nintendo Switch Online's GameCube library, complementing eight current titles.

  • Recently, Walmart's official Nintendo page displayed a promotional image depicting Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Pikmin 2 among Nintendo Switch Online's GameCube collection, showing two unconfirmed GameCube titles.
  • On Walmart's 'Unlock more' page the image appeared advertising a $35 gift card, and a reverse image search found no other sources, indicating Walmart likely originated the artwork.
  • GameCube games are exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2 and the service's collection currently includes just eight games, with neither Pikmin 2 nor Metroid Prime 2 listed.
  • Given the timing, the sightings suggest both games may be added in the coming months, with more GameCube titles expected this year, according to Nintendo Life and insider NateTheHate.
  • Amid remaster talk, Pikmin 2 has an HD remaster from 2023 while Metroid Prime 2: Echoes is less available and remaster rumours may be affected if Nintendo re-releases the original.
