Nintendo Switch Online is adding NES and SNES games on Feb. 19

This Bingo card is out of control

Nintendo sure has its own way of running the Nintendo Switch Online classic game library. A new batch with four games – two on NES, two on SNES – is joining the service on February 19, 2020.

On the Super Nintendo front, subscribers are getting Pop’n TwinBee, a cutesy vertical shoot-’em-up, and Smash Tennis, neither of which were originally released in the United States. For NES fans, there’s the action-platformer Shadow of the Ninja and the powerboat racing game Eliminator Boat Duel.

“These titles broaden the diversity of fun games available with a Nintendo Switch Online membership,” Nintendo said in a press release today. The statement is as true as it is frustrating.

I’m legitimately excited about Pop’n TwinBee, but that’s it. This release schedule is something else.
