Think fast! More electrifying SEGA Genesis games are at your fingertips.
Today, three more radically retro games have been added to the SEGA Genesis – Nintendo Switch Online library: Alien Soldier, Super Fantasy Zone and Light Crusader. You can play them all right now on the Nintendo Switch™ system with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership.
In Alien Soldier, the acclaimed developers at Treasure invite you to take on the role of a bird-man with steel wings in his fight against 25 bosses. In this challenging game, you can learn new tactics with every defeat … or take advantage of that handy Rewind feature to perfect your run!
Super Fantasy Zone has you powering up the ever-appealing Opa-Opa across eight colorful planets!
In Light Crusader, also from Treasure, let nobility light your way through a lovingly crafted action-RPG.
The new Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership plan features all the same great benefits of a Nintendo Switch Online membership, but with access to classic Nintendo 64 and SEGA Genesis games with added online play. The paid membership plan also grants access to the Animal Crossing™: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise DLC* and the upcoming Mario Kart™ 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass (starting March 18) at no extra cost.
Members in both Nintendo Switch Online plans can enjoy online play and the Save Data Cloud feature in a large selection of compatible games, along with access to over 100 classic NES™ and Super NES™ games, a smartphone app that enhances features of supported games, and the competitive online games Tetris® 99 and PAC-MAN™ 99.
Both plans also provide a great way to connect and play compatible games online with friends and family around the world. With online play in compatible games like Mario Golf™: Super Rush, Animal Crossing™: New Horizons, Pokémon™ Legends: Arceus, Splatoon™ 2, Super Smash Bros.™ Ultimate, Mario Kart™ 8 Deluxe and many others, a Nintendo Switch Online membership can help you experience everything Nintendo Switch has to offer.
