What new games are included in the Nintendo Switch Online April lineup?
Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels
Published in 1986, Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels is a sequel to the hit game Super Mario Bros. This side-scrolling platformer has 32 challenging levels that cross over eight different worlds. This sequel is known for being quite difficult, so it definitely isn’t for the faint of heart.
Punch Out!! Featuring Mr. Dream
Punch Out!! Featuring Mr. Dream is a re-release of the popular Mike Tyson’s Punch Out, where fighters face Mr. Dream in the final fight instead of Mike Tyson. Play as Little Mac, who has dreams of becoming a renowned fighter, after being given the opportunity to fight in the World Video Boxing Association circuit. You’ll have to take on various opponents and work your way through the circuit to see if you have what it takes to become champion.
Star Soldier
Star Soldier is a single-player shooting game released in 1989. Players will assume control over a starship and are responsible for defeating as many Starbrains as possible before they take over the galaxy. Do you have what it takes to defend the universe from these supercomputer threats?
