Nintendo Life ranks 17 Virtual Boy games available through Nintendo Switch Online’s Expansion Pack, following the addition of previously unreleased titles D-Hopper and Zero Racers. The list presents the library as a mix of technical curiosities, competent sports games and short but enjoyable arcade-style experiences, while noting the Virtual Boy’s historical status as Nintendo’s poorest-selling console.

Among the lower-ranked games, Virtual Fishing is criticised for weak audio and limited challenge, while Space Invaders: Virtual Collection is seen as an underdeveloped use of 3D. Virtual Bowling and Golf receive qualified praise for solid controls and gameplay despite missing features, Mario Clash is considered worth trying mainly out of curiosity, and Vertical Force is praised for its 3D level design but criticised for having only four full stages.
