Joycons Control layout is not great for super Metroid. Been having some issues, though some of that is just I haven't played super Metroid in like 5 years

Oddly, Breath of Fire is the only game in its series that I have ever played. Emulated it when I was like 12 and had a good time. I really hope 2 is on its way because that one is apparently where the series really comes into its own.

Feels so good to play Pilotwings 25 years after. The music is so good, it brings back a lot of good memories of playing with my father as a young boy.
When I think about it, it's probably my first experience of an "open world" : the rocket belt stages where you could go anywhere in "3&c blew my mind as a kid

Super Mario World is perhaps my favorite game ever, but I still had an "Oh yeah, the game is like this" moment after coming straight off of Super Mario Maker 2. Physics are nowhere near bad, but different than what many are used to.

I BEAT WORLD 1 TAKE THAT IGGY

Maybe this is a dumb question but here it is. Can you play Super Mario Kart locally with split joycons? Because that'll be amazing. Never tried if that works with the NES games.

Iggy no joke is usually the hardest boss in the game for me. Beat him first try last night, though!

So I put together a rough list of what we might expect down the line based on companies that have already given the go ahead to at least one title for the NES and SNES apps. I didn't bother with obviously licensed products or games that have already been released elsewhere on the Switch. Apologies for anything I missed or got wrong, it was a little tricky navigating who owns what IPs from that far back. I also didn't take unreleased import titles into consideration.

Thanks for the earlier responses about online play. I was tempted by. Switch today, but I don't know if my friends have the yearly Switch subscription. I'll have a think about whether I would play the SNES games in SP only.

I somehow remembered both of the helicopter codes right away...

For those that want to frustrated like mad (Fu little island turret!!)

Couldn't remember any of the other ones, but yeah, definitely a unique game as it's an oddly pretty serious game from Nintendo. They certainly went more cold friendly in tone for n64.

I haven't gotten a chance to try this out yet, but is there a way to turn off the button overlay/UI?

And I know button remapping isn't in, but have they mentioned any plans to add it later?

No problem. The video is a good overview of the issue. There are games where 4:3 is better (chrono trigger).

This is really interesting, thanks for sharing! Since Squaresoft took the stretching into account, would this mean their other SNES games (FFIV, VI, SMRPG) would also look better in 4:3?

That's really too bad, because it is filters like these that give CRT filters a bad name. If people used better ones you wouldn't see a lot of the illogical BS surrounding them.

The ones on the Hamster Neo Geo ports are the best I've seen.

...and like that, so many Raspberry Pi and SNES Classic units are forgotten (at least for a few weeks).

Seriously though, this is so wonderful. I enjoyed the NES Online games as little occupations of idle time, but being able to take these games on the go (or the couch) is a true blessing.

Hope that Star Fox 2 does make it into the lineup eventually, I've never played it!

I think they had people doing that in one of the preview videos
omg so it is possible then? May I ask which video in particular? Is it posted in this thread? Gonna try it as soon as I arrive home so I can play with my dad. He loves Mario Kart to death and it's been decades since the last time we played Super Mario Kart ( I skipped the SNES Classic Mini)

Awesome work but there's some more possible 3rd party stuff. Sega for example also has access to Atlus games (Run Saber, Power Instinct, etc) Sunsoft owns all of Nihon Telenet's properties (Valis IV, Neuiger, etc), and Spike Chunsoft owns most of Human's library (Fire Pro Wrestling, The Firemen, etc). Also Sega doesn't own Space Megaforce, all of Compile's non-Puyo games are owned by D4 Enterprise.

Beat Super Mario World in about an hour and a half 51% completion, and only got a few of the Star Road levels finished. Still was my first time beating it in one sitting.

The description for F-Zero talks about "grabbing power-ups". I don't think they ever played the game.

Thanks, I went ahead and updated the list! I'm a little out of my depth on some of the niche third party titles, so I appreciate the info. I didn't want to dig into potential import titles besides what had already been released, so I didn't bother with the bulk of Human's catalog
