Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Adds Four Classic Games
Battletoads/Double Dragon, Big Run, and More!
Prepare for a nostalgic journey! Nintendo is adding four iconic SNES titles from the early '90s to the Nintendo Switch Online library. These additions promise a mix of beat-em-up action, high-octane racing, mind-bending puzzles, and competitive dodgeball, enriching the already impressive collection of classic games available to subscribers.

First on the list is the legendary crossover, Battletoads/Double Dragon. This game unites the brawling Battletoads with the martial arts prowess of the Double Dragon brothers to combat the evil Dark Queen and the Shadow Warriors. Players can choose from five characters, including Billy and Jimmy Lee from Double Dragon and the amphibian heroes Zitz, Pimple, and Rash from Battletoads.
Originally launched for the NES in June 1993 and later ported to the Super NES in December of the same year, Battletoads/Double Dragon's inclusion in the Nintendo Switch Online library marks its first re-release in decades.

Next, Kunio-kun no Dodgeball da yo Zen’in Shūgō!, known as Super Dodgeball in North America and Europe, brings the thrill of dodgeball to the forefront. Featuring Kunio-kun from the River City series, players will compete against international teams across various settings, from indoor stadiums to outdoor beaches, each with unique challenges.
This game was first released for the Super Famicom in August 1993.

For puzzle enthusiasts, Cosmo Gang the Puzzle offers a strategic challenge akin to Tetris and Puyo Puyo. Players aim to clear lines of containers and Cosmos to score points. The game features three engaging modes:
- 1P Mode: Compete against your own high scores.
- VS Mode: Engage in head-to-head battles with friends.
- 100 Stage Mode: Progress through increasingly difficult puzzles.
To succeed, align containers horizontally and utilize blue orbs to remove Cosmos. Initially released in arcades in 1992, it later appeared on the Super Famicom and has been re-released on various platforms, including the Wii, Wii U, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4 through the Arcade Archives series.

Finally, Big Run offers an adrenaline-pumping racing experience across the challenging terrains of Africa. From the urban landscapes of Tripoli to the swampy regions of West Africa, players will navigate nine demanding stages, racing against time and rivals. Success hinges on strategic choices, from selecting sponsors to managing resources and overcoming obstacles like blown tires and engine damage.
Big Run was first released for the Super Famicom in 1991.
With this diverse and thrilling lineup, the Nintendo Switch Online service continues to expand its offerings. Whether you're into beat-em-ups, racing, puzzles, or dodgeball, there's something for every gamer in this September 2024 update!
