The Wonder Boy Collection is receiving a small upgrade from ININ Games. On January 26, 2023, the Wonder Boy Anniversary Collection, an enhanced digital release of this year’s compilation, will be made available on the eShop.
If you’re still unclear, there are a good number of variations from June 2022’s Collection, at least if you purchased the basic version. If you recall, Strictly Limited Titles revealed the “Anniversary Collection,” a physical-only edition that includes 21 ports of six different Wonder Boy games. With the announcement of a digital release early in 2019, the formerly physical-only version will no longer be the sole method to enjoy the whole library of Wonder Boy titles.
All 21 games included in the Anniversary Collection are listed below:

This really makes us happy because, despite the fact that all of the titles in the Wonder Boy Collection were pretty dang amazing, we were unhappy with the collection’s small amount of games when we reviewed it earlier this year.
