Nintendo has rolled out an exciting new update for those who subscribe to the Nintendo Switch Online service, adding three more classic SNES games to the lineup. If you’re itching to dive into these nostalgic titles, all you’ll need to do is update your Super Nintendo Entertainment System – Nintendo Switch Online app to Version 4.0.0.
First up is Fatal Fury 2, a thrilling fighting game originally released on the Super NES back in 1994. The intense rivalry between the Bogard brothers and Geese Howard might be in the past, but the legendary King of Fighters tournament is back in full swing. Each competitor has their own unique reason for entering, armed with distinct martial arts skills from around the globe. This edition spices things up with the two-line battle system, allowing players to switch positions during fights and knock opponents across lines. Plus, unleash powerful special moves when your health is low to turn the tide of battle. It’s all about using every trick in the book to claim the coveted title of King of Fighters!
Next, we have Super Ninja Boy, where you join Jack and Ryu on an epic quest. Trouble arises in the bustling city of Yokan following the departure of the Universal Peace Mission’s space fleet. It’s up to our heroes to save the day! This 1993 classic brings together RPG elements and action-packed gameplay, as you face off against formidable enemies using ninja weapons like Throwing Stars and Moonsault Kicks. Go solo or team up with a friend, unlocking awesome moves like the Tower Mega-Attack by cooperating with your partner.
Finally, the lineup includes Sutte Hakkun, a delightful action-puzzle game that first appeared on rewritable game cards via the Japanese Nintendo Power service in 1998, before seeing a full release on the Super Famicom a year later. Players take control of Hakkun, using his ability to absorb and spit out blocks to forge new paths across the island. Your mission is to collect scattered rainbow shards. It sounds simple, but the challenge lies in figuring out creative ways to use Hakkun’s abilities to navigate through levels.
