There's one other game with evidence of being tested though- https://t.co/QQDBDcdAZp pic.twitter.com/lGSB4Mg7Gt
The emulator seems to have a netplay support for link cables, as per recognised dataminer OatmealDome, with each Switch trying to emulate multiple Game Boys simultaneously and then simulating a Link Cable among both them.
Some who have gone at the records believe they were registered as Nintendo Europe Research and Development projects, which is situated in France and is frequently in charge of emulation software for official Nintendo products.
The videos were quickly taken down, prompting followers to believe that the leaks were true. The possibility of GBA games for the Nintendo Switch arriving sooner rather than later is thrilling, however, nothing is certain at this time.

Back in 2021, Rogers indicated that the N64 Pokemon game, which allowed players to import critters from Game Boy games into the N64, would have comparable functionality on the Nintendo Switch Online service.
However, we will have to wait a while to be sure of anything, as only an official announcement from Nintendo can verify or nullify the speculation on the Nintendo Switch Game Boy games connection with N64.
