Nintendo has added three more retro games to Nintendo Switch Online’s NES and SNES libraries.
The NES app gets Pinball, while the SNES gets Rival Turf and Congo’s Caper.
Pinballis one of the original ‘black box’ NES games and launched alongside the console in the west.
It’s a standard pinball game, but has a bonus stage in which Mario carries a platform and tries to deflect the ball to rescue Pauline.
Rival Turfis a beat ’em up similar to Final Fight and Streets of Rage, and is the first game in Jaleco’s Rushing Beat trilogy. The second and third games, Brawl Brothers and The Peace Keepers, are already on Switch Online.
Congo’s Caper, meanwhile, is a Data East platformer which is considered the spiritual successor to Joe &Mac.
Players control a monkey called Congo who’s been turned into a human by a demon. Congo has to defeat the demon and rescue his girlfriend so they can both turn back into monkeys again.
The Japanese version of Switch Online doesn’t get Congo’s Caper – instead, it getsUmihara Kawase, a platformer about a chef armed with a fishing line which acts like a grappling hook.
