Nintendo Switch Online's NES games for April include Punch-Out!!, Star Soldier
Three more NES games are coming to Switch this month as part of Nintendo's online subscription service, with Punch-Out!!, Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels, and Star Solider all confirmed for release on April 10th.
Punch-Out!! is, of course, the first console iteration of Nintendo's beloved arcade boxing series, which arrived on NES 1987. Its basic gameplay rhythm - which pits players against increasingly powerful foes in the ring, tasking them with spotting opponents' tells and figuring out the best response from a handful of moves - is still pretty engaging, even two and a bit decades on.
Offering number two, Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels, is another winner, although its sadistic challenge probably isn't for everyone. It originally launched in Japan in 1986 as Super Mario Bros. 2, but was rejected for release in the west due to its extremely high difficulty.
