Today, a catalogue of 20 classic SNES games have been added as part of Nintendo’s Switch Online membership.
In the September 4 Nintendo Direct, entertainment planning and development head Shinya Takahashi announced the news. Up to now, only NES titles were available for players who were nostalgic for the classics, but a whopping 20 games have been re-released for Switch. These are:
- Brawl Brothers
- Breath of Fire
- Demon's Crest
- F-Zero
- Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics
- Kirby's Dream Course
- Kirby's Dream Land 3
- Pilotwings
- Star Fox
- Stunt Race FX
- Super EDF Earth Defense Force
- Super Ghouls'n Ghosts
- Super Mario Kart
- Super Mario World
- Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
- Super Metroid
- Super Puyo Puyo 2
- Super Soccer
- Super Tennis
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
And notably, this is the first time that Stunt Race FX, Super Soccer, and Super Tennis will be playable on a different platform since the SNES. The games will be compatible with the Switch’s rewind feature, and offer local and online multiplayer in titles including Super Puyo Puyo 2 and Kirby's Dream Land 3. Like the NES re-releases, Nintendo will also put a SNES controller on sale soon, and it plans to release even more SNES games in future. Watch the announcement below.
