Nintendo has added three new Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) games to the Nintendo Switch Online library as part of its January 2025 update. These titles—Fatal Fury 2, Super Ninja Boy, and Sutte Hakkun—are now available to all Nintendo Switch Online members with an active subscription and the Expansion Pack.
Here’s a breakdown of the new additions:
- Fatal Fury 2: Originally released in 1992, this sequel to SNK’s Fatal Fury introduces new characters like Kim Kaphwan and Mai Shiranui while retaining fan favorites such as Terry Bogard. It features the series’ signature two-plane fighting system, making it a standout arcade-style fighter of its era.
- Super Ninja Boy: A 1991 action RPG that blends side-scrolling combat with role-playing elements. Players control Jack and Ryu as they battle enemies, solve puzzles, and explore an expansive world. The game also supports two-player co-op, allowing friends to team up for the adventure.
- Sutte Hakkun: A 1997 puzzle-platformer that was previously exclusive to Japan and originally released via the Satellaview broadcast system. This marks its first official English release. Players control Hakkun, a small bird-like creature tasked with solving color-based puzzles by absorbing and injecting liquids into blocks to manipulate their movement.
These games are available at no additional cost for Nintendo Switch Online members who have purchased the Expansion Pack, which also grants access to other classic libraries such as NES, N64, Game Boy Advance, and Sega Genesis games. The update continues Nintendo’s efforts to bring a mix of well-known classics and hidden gems to modern audiences.
Players can also take advantage of quality-of-life features like save states and rewind functionality, making these retro games more accessible than ever. Fans of retro gaming can dive into these titles today on their Nintendo Switch systems.
