Nintendo has just dropped some exciting news for gaming enthusiasts: three more classic Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) games have been added to the Nintendo Switch Online library. Subscribers can dive into these nostalgic titles by updating their software to the latest version, 4.0.0, for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System – Nintendo Switch Online app.
First up, we have “Fatal Fury 2,” a fighting game originally launched for the Super NES in 1994. The rivalry between the Bogard brothers and Geese Howard is a thing of the past, but the King of Fighters tournament is back with a vengeance. Each fighter enters the ring with personal motivations and distinctive martial arts techniques from around the globe. The game’s fresh mechanics include a two-line battle system, enabling fighters to switch positions and send opponents flying across the screen, along with powerful special moves activated when a fighter’s health is low. It’s a test of mastery and strategy to rise as the new King of Fighters!
Next, “Super Ninja Boy” takes you on an epic quest with Jack and Ryu. Set in the chaotic capital city of Yokan, this 1993 release blends RPG elements with classic action gameplay. As the duo, you’ll thwart powerful enemies using an array of ninja skills like Throwing Stars and Moonsault Kicks. Whether you tackle these challenges solo or collaborate with a friend, you can perform collaborative moves, such as the impressive Tower Mega-Attack. It’s a blend of action and strategy that promises hours of entertainment.
Lastly, “Sutte Hakkun” challenges your puzzle-solving skills. Originally available on a rewritable game card in Japan via the Nintendo Power service back in 1998 and later fully released on the Super Famicom in 1999, this title tasks you with guiding Hakkun to collect rainbow shards dotted around the island. By using Hakkun’s unique ability to absorb and place blocks, you must creatively navigate terrain and construct paths to achieve your objectives. Although it starts simple, the freedom you have to decide your approach keeps the gameplay stimulating and inventive.
