Nintendo has added three new SNES games for Switch Online members, with one particular title releasing outside Japan for the first time ever. Mario & Wario is a puzzle-platform title from 1993 that was actually developed by Game Freak--before the studio developed Pokemon. Of note, the game reportedly has always featured English text, even though it didn't see the light of day in the US for over three decades.
Mario & Wario does require mouse controls, according to Nintendo's video (seen below) posted on YouTube. Wario has thrown a bucket on Mario's head, so it's up to players, controlling a forest fairy, to guide the plumber to safety across 100 levels. On Switch 2, people can utilize the Joy-Con 2 on its side instead of a traditional mouse plugged in via USB like on Switch.
The other two games now available as part of Nintendo Switch Online are Bubsy in: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind and Fatal Fury Special. The former can get you acquainted with the wisecracking bobcat before Bubsy 4D arrives, while the latter is a fighting game that lets players take control of Axel Hawk, for instance, who was a CPU boss in the original Fatal Fury 2 release.
Last month, Nintendo announced that the Virtual Boy platform will come to the premium Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership on February 17, though an accessory is required. Earlier this year, GameCube games arrived for Switch 2 owners subscribed to Switch Online + Expansion Pack. The basic Switch Online tier costs $20 yearly for individuals ($35 for a family plan), while the Expansion Pack tier costs $50 annually ($80 for families).
