Nintendo recently released an update for Switch Online, which among other little tweaks adds a nice, nostalgia infused Easter egg to the Game Boy Advance app.

This Easter egg can be found by twiddling with the analogue stick while booting up the Game Boy Advance app. If you do this, you will be met with the classic GBA bootup sequence.

You can see how the Easter egg looks via the video I took this morning.

This is not the first time Nintendo has added a nostalgic start up on its Switch Online Classic apps. Back in June, it also added the iconic GameCube startup screen to the Switch.
