Nintendo Switch Online gets a couple of great retro games in April
If you guys need me, I’ll be getting bodied in Punch-Out.

After months of “just ok” games coming to the retro games portion of Nintendo Switch Online, Nintendo has definitely turned it around this month, offering some premium, classic game experiences to fans of the service.
To access the games, you’ll have to have a membership to Nintendo Switch Online ($20/year), but don’t forget, Amazon Prime members can currently get a year of the service for the wonderful price of free.
All of the games highlighted below will be available on your Nintendo Switch on April 10.
Here are the games coming to Nintendo Switch Online in April
This month sees Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels, Punch-Out!! (sans Mike Tyson), and Star Soldier all joining the growing list of games on the service. All three of these games are great examples of the quality of game found on the original Nintendo Entertainment System and deserve to at least be checked out.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go get my world rocked in Punch-Out!! a couple of times.
