Beat 'em Ups, Racing, Puzzles, and Dodgeball!
Prepare for a retro gaming revival! Nintendo is adding four fantastic SNES games from the early 90s to its ever-growing library. This update brings a mix of genres: intense beat 'em up action, high-stakes racing, challenging puzzles, and even some dodgeball mayhem!First up: the legendary crossover, Battletoads/Double Dragon. Team up with the Battletoads and the Double Dragon brothers to defeat the Dark Queen and her Shadow Warriors. Choose from five playable characters, including Billy and Jimmy Lee, and the amphibian trio Zitz, Pimple, and Rash.
Originally an NES title (June 1993), then ported to the SNES (December 1993), this marks a long-awaited re-release for Battletoads/Double Dragon.
Next, get ready for some dodgeball action with Kunio-kun no Dodgeball da yo Zen’in Shūgō! (known as Super Dodgeball in the West). Featuring Kunio-kun from the River City series, you'll compete against global rivals in various exciting arenas, from indoor stadiums to outdoor beaches, each with unique challenges.
This Super Famicom classic originally launched in August 1993.
Puzzle fans will appreciate Cosmo Gang the Puzzle. Similar to Tetris and Puyo Puyo, strategically clear lines of containers and Cosmos to score big. Three modes are available: 1P Mode (solo challenge), VS Mode (head-to-head), and 100 Stage Mode (increasing difficulty). Line up containers horizontally and utilize blue orbs to remove Cosmos.
