Nintendo had been promoting their Nintendo Switch Online service for quite some time;
without really giving us a real reason to subscribe to the service other than it allowing players to play games online. The hyped up service was finally made available in September and people were not impressed, to say the least.
So far, the Nintendo Entertainment System feature is the most interesting aspect about Nintendo's online service, which was meant to replace the Virtual Console. The company has only been monthly releasing classic NES titles on the feature, keeping fans scratching their heads wondering where the Super Nintendo, Game Boy, Nintendo 64, and GameCube games were.
Prior to the Nintendo Switch Online service's release,
Nintendo of America COO Reggie Fils-Aimé mentioned that games were definitely coming to the service, but to this day fans are still getting classic NES titles that they've played a million times.
As it turns out, Nintendo may actually be working on a Super Nintendo Entertainment Feature, as an avid data miner going by the name of
@KapuccinoHeck on Twitter has managed to find out that there are a bunch of Super Nintendo games to be found on the Nintendo Entertainment System feature; providing a list with all of the games that allegedly would make it to the service.
The Super Nintendo titles that will be added to the Nintendo Entertainment System feature are the following:
-
Super Mario Kart
-
Super Soccer
-
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
-

While adding Super Nintendo games to the Nintendo Switch Online service is a no-brainer, Nintendo has done little to nothing to reassure players that they are getting their money's worth when paying for the service — which currently features a few NES titles and provides players with the ability to play their games online.
Hopefully, Nintendo gets their act together and makes releasing these games a priority because, as of now, there's still no real reason to pay for the service.
