Nintendo's September 2024 Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack update delivers a fantastic four-game addition to its retro library. Dive into this exciting lineup of classic titles!
Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack: Four Classic Games Join the Roster
Beat 'em Ups, Racing, Puzzles, and Dodgeball!
Prepare for a retro gaming extravaganza! Nintendo has unveiled four SNES titles from the early 90s, offering diverse gameplay experiences ranging from intense beat 'em up action to strategic puzzle-solving and high-octane racing.
First up, the legendary crossover: Battletoads/Double Dragon. This epic mashup unites the brawling Battletoads and the Double Dragon brothers in a fight against the Dark Queen and her Shadow Warriors. Choose from five playable characters – Billy and Jimmy Lee (Double Dragon) and Zitz, Pimple, and Rash (Battletoads).
Originally released on NES in June 1993 and later ported to SNES in December 1993, this marks a long-awaited re-release for this classic title.
Next, get ready for some dodgeball mayhem with Kunio-kun no Dodgeball da yo Zen’in Shūgō! (Super Dodgeball in the West). Featuring Kunio-kun from the River City series, this game challenges you to dodgeball dominance across various indoor and outdoor arenas, each with unique challenges.
Initially launched on Super Famicom in August 1993.
Puzzle enthusiasts will appreciate Cosmo Gang the Puzzle. This Tetris and Puyo Puyo-inspired game requires strategic thinking to clear lines of containers and Cosmos. Three modes await: 1P Mode (solo high score challenge), VS Mode (head-to-head competition), and 100 Stage Mode (increasingly difficult puzzles).
Originally an arcade game (1992), it later appeared on Super Famicom (1993) and various platforms since, including recent releases on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.
Finally, experience the thrill of Big Run, a high-stakes racing game set across diverse African landscapes. Race against the clock and rivals across nine challenging stages, managing resources and making strategic decisions to overcome obstacles. Choose your sponsor wisely!
Big Run first launched on Super Famicom in 1991.
This September's additions significantly expand the Nintendo Switch Online library's variety. Whether you prefer brawling, racing, puzzles, or dodgeball, this update has something for everyone.
