Free Games Update | Nintendo Switch Online Super NES April 2024 Updates

Some more additions are making their way to the Nintendo Switch Online service. The Super Nintendo catalog will see three new offerings, including two former Japan-only releases making their first appearance in the United States. With two games in one, it's the puzzle game Wrecking Crew '98. From developer IREM, the side-scrolling space shooter Super R-Type. And the multiplayer fighter from SunSoft, Amazing Hebereke.

These games are available TODAY. Access requires a subscription to the Nintendo Switch Online Service.

SUPER R-TYPE

The BYDO Empire of mutant extraterrestrials is back with evil intent and awesome power. Now the evil empire is poised to launch a new attack on Earth. Only the revolutionary R-9, the planet's most advanced form of defense, stands between these monsters and doom. Fight through seven challenging stages—picking up power-up items as you progress—on the way to each stage's climatic boss. You'll need lightning reflexes, intuitive moves, and a big dose of cosmic luck to hold your own!

Amazing Hebereke

Originally released for the Super Famicom system in 1994, Amazing Hebereke features battles with up to four characters where the last one standing is the winner! Hebereke, along with each of the other characters, can perform two kinds of special attacks in addition to their normal attacks. Use your attacks in combination with the items and traps on each stage to take control and earn your hard-fought victory!

Wrecking Crew '98

This action puzzler was released only in Japan via the Nintendo Power rewritable game system in 1998—and then again for the Super Famicom™ system proper. In this game, you can play either the original Famicom game or the updated Super Famicom version.

In Wrecking Crew, you control Mario and must dodge enemy attacks as you destroy walls and ladders. Once you wreck it all, you've cleared the stage! Wrecking Crew '98, on the other hand, is a competition. Destroy and arrange panels to line up matching colors. Line up three or more to clear them, and clear four or more panels to launch an attack on your opponent—the more panels you clear at once, the more powerful your attack. If your opponent crosses the line at the top for longer than three seconds, victory is yours!
