Nintendo reveals additional NES titles for Switch Online alongside special controllers

Nintendo has finally pulled back the curtain on the remaining NES titles that will be available when the Nintendo Switch Online launches on September 18th.

The full list of 20 titles that will be available on day one complete with online support include:

• Soccer
• Tennis
• Donkey Kong™
• Mario Bros.™
• Super Mario Bros.™
• Balloon Fight™
• Ice Climber™
• Dr. Mario™
• The Legend of Zelda™
• Super Mario Bros.™ 3
• Double Dragon
• River City Ransom
• Ghosts’n Goblins™
• Tecmo Bowl
• Gradius
• Pro Wrestling
• Excitebike™
• Yoshi™
• Ice Hockey
• Baseball

In addition, it seems that they will be expanding the library with 3 new titles each month. October will receive Solomon’s Key, NES Open Tournament Golf and Super Dodge Ball. November gets Metroid, Mighty Bomb Jack and Twinbee. Finally, December will net you Wario’s Woods, Ninja Gaiden and ADVENTURES OF LOLO. This will continue into 2019, but which titles they choose remains to be seen.

Nintendo will also be releasing NES controllers for the Switch that can slide into the Joy-Con slots to charge. They will be sold as a two pack, and feature L and R buttons similar to the Joy-Con’s SL and SR buttons. These will be sold exclusively for members of the Online Service, presumably to help combat scalpers. The pack will be sold for $59.99 and shipments will begin in mid-December.
