For beloved releases that shipped on previous Nintendo hardware, those games are returning on Nintendo Switch. From developer WayForward, the game studio in April announced that Shantae – the initial Game Boy Color title from 2002 – will be arriving to the Nintendo eShop. However, Nintendo itself has been bringing some of its most early games to the latest model on the market.

Via the Nintendo Switch Online virtual libraries for the Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System, fans witnessed the archive of titles grow ever so often. In December, fans found games like Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong’s Double Trouble! arrive. But, another influx of games were also introduced back in February for fans hungry for more classic titles.

Now on Tuesday, Nintendo announced five more games will be coming to the Nintendo Switch Online virtual libraries: four for SNES & one for NES. You can read the full list below:

NES

Ninja JaJaMaru-kun

SNES

Super Baseball Simulator 1.000
Caveman Ninja (also known as Joe & Mac)
Magical Drop2
Spanky’s Quest

In regards to what Nintendo is expanding on for new initiatives regarding the Nintendo Switch, the firm is reported to offer one last go for its Labo Cardboard program. The line of paper-based products to flex the strengths of the Nintendo Switch and Joy-Cons is said to offer on final Toy-Con sometime later on in 2021.

Through the grapevine, Fanbyte’s News Editor Imran Khan told that the recently announced Game Builder Garage was often referenced ‘Labo 5’ through what he heard. You can read the full announcement by heading here.
