Nintendo Switch Online will be adding three new 8-bit classics to its NES lineup next week – Mighty Bomb Jack, TwinBee, and yes, the legendary original Metroid. Nintendo Switch Online comes with a collection of NES titles with added online play and other features, and, sometimes, minor gameplay tweaks (Nintendo has released a special easier version of The Legend of Zelda).

For those not up on their 8-bit history, Metroid is, of course, the groundbreaking non-linear action-platformer that introduced one of gaming’s first female heroes, Samus Aran. Mighty Bomb Jack is an early NES platformer, and a somewhat odd choice to include in the Switch Online lineup, as it isn’t that fondly remembered, but it’s worth a try. TwinBee is a vertically-scrolling shooter, with some rather quirky mechanics, but it’s some good light fun.
