24 minutes

On this episode of The Middle School Mind podcast, we talk about throwback SNES games that are available on Nintendo Switch Online. Son highlights his Top 5 SNES games available on the Nintendo Switch Online.

Here’s what we cover on this episode:

How to access the SNES games through Nintendo Switch Online

Son lists his Top 5 games he plays on the SNES

5. The Peace Keepers (1994)

Beat ‘em up arcade game with sweet 80’s music.

Son likes to play as Al who looks like Rock and uses a Rocket Launcher

4. Super Mario World (1990)

You can hatch and ride Yoshi in this game

This game also has the super cape option that lets you fly

3. Super Punch Out (1994)

No Mike Tyson

Your first fight is again 1-99 Gabby Jay, a grandfatherly figure that no boxing organization should allow to fight professionally

2. Super Tennis (1991)

It’s fun to play this tennis game either with a friend or against the CPU

We are not that great at this game and the graphics are a slight step up from the Original NES - I guess that’s what makes it Super Tennis

Before we list Son’s top SNES game available on the Nintendo Switch Online, we have a few honorable (or dishonorable) mentions:

Baseball Simulator 1.000 (1991): You have power up abilities for hitters and pitchers

Natsume Championship Wrestling (1994) The game developers must have used a bad wrestling name generator to come up with these characters

Demon’s Crest (1994) This game is so intense and Son can’t get past the first series. For 1994, this game has a great story and graphics.

1. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (1991)

This is an old time Zelda game, not an open sandbox world like Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Son has invested a lot of time playing this game

Finally, Son has a final SNES game that will only frustrate you. Don’t play this because it’s crazy hard.

Super Ghouls and Ghosts (1991) Eight super difficult levels. You will be frustrated at how hard this game is.
