Nintendos kostenpflichtiger Dienst „Nintendo Switch Online“ müsste in den vergangenen Monaten ein paar Kunden gewonnen haben, hat man doch ein Angebot in Verbindung mit Amazon Prime gestartet, welches zu 12 Monaten kostenlosen Zugang berechtigt. Als Abonnent bekommt man Zugriff auf ein paar Klassiker des Spieleherstellers. Für den Monat Dezember hat man nun die Titel genannt, die ins Programm aufgenommen werden.
Sechs Titel sind es insgesamt, vier davon vom Super NES, genauer gesagt Star Fox 2, Super Punch-Out!!, Kirby Super Star und Breath of Fire II – und zwei Titel des Nintendo Entertainment Systems – Crystalis und Journey to Silius. Grafisch logischerweise alles keine Brecher, da es sich um Retro-Games handelt. Aber wer damals eine Konsole mit den Titeln besaß oder generell gern Retro spielt, der wird damit seine Freude haben.
Super NES™
• Star Fox™ 2 – This 3D rail-shooter and second installment of the Star Fox series was first designed for the Super NES, but went unreleased until it appeared on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System™: Super NES Classic Edition system in 2017.

• Super Punch-Out!!™ – Featuring the tight gameplay and humor the series is known for, this sequel to the NES classic sees Little Mac return to the ring with the World Video Boxing Association belt once again at stake.
