Nintendo Switch Online - NES gets a Rewind feature and two new games
Posted 10 Jul 2019 at 09:04 by Sam C Gittins
While there are only two titles available as part of the Nintendo Switch Online - NES service this month, consisting of Donkey Kong 3 and Wrecking Crew; there is also a rewind feature being added.
It's reminiscent of the one used in Nintendo's own SNES Classic mini console and it allows you to go back a few seconds at a time so that you can replay certain sections with relative ease.
Check below for the PR info and videos...
Donkey Kong 3 – Based on the third game in the enormously popular arcade series, Donkey Kong 3 introduces an exterminator named Stanley as he desperately tries to protect the flowers in his greenhouse from Donkey Kong. Armed only with a can of bug spray, Stanley must force Donkey Kong higher and higher into the greenhouse rafters until Donkey Kong is off the screen and the next stage is reached.
Wrecking Crew – In the days before Mario and Luigi became sports stars in their downtime from saving the princess, they tried their hands as one-man wrecking crews. With a hammer as their only tool, take control of the brothers and set out to destroy ladders, rip out pipes, knock out walls and detonate explosive devices. But make sure to plan your path of destruction carefully, as each building is designed as its own clever puzzle.
On July 17, a Rewind feature will be available to use with the entire collection of NES – Nintendo Switch Online games, allowing players to easily rewind gameplay by pressing and holding ZL + ZR if they make a mistake or just want to retry a section of the game!
Are you interested in this months offerings? Surely the Rewind feature has stolen the show this time? Although I must say, personally I do enjoy a good game of Wrecking Crew.
