Switch Online's NES ports now total 29, with no announcements yet for what will arrive in 2019. However, we do have the list of games that were released on the NES Classic, and the 21 titles below are what remains:

ALL REGIONS

  • Castlevania
  • Double Dragon II: The Revenge
  • Galaga
  • Kirby's Adventure
  • Mega Man 2
  • Pac-Man
  • Super Contra
  • Super Mario Bros. 2[A]
  • Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

NA/ PAL

  • Bubble Bobble
  • Castlevania II: Simon's Quest
  • Donkey Kong Jr.
  • Final Fantasy
  • Kid Icarus
  • Punch-Out!! Featuring Mr. Dream
  • StarTropics

JAPAN

  • Atlantis no Nazo
  • Downtown Nekketsu Kōshinkyoku: Soreyuke Daiundōkai
  • Final Fantasy III
  • Tsuppari Ōzumō
  • Yie Ar Kung-Fu

Seems logical that Nintendo will use these titles, so that's 7 months worth of titles if they continue their "3 a month" release schedule.
Are there any other titles that you believe are big enough (not personal desires) to also be featured?
Do you think we're looking at a 7 month wait, minimum, before SNES games begin?
Do you think this is completely unrelated and they won't simply feature all of the Classic Edition games?

Honestly I'm not expecting SNES games until 2020.

Switch Physical Collection - 1,241 games (as of March 23rd, 2024)

Looking forward to SNES games now, sooner the better. NES isn’t my favourite I’ve got to be honest. I have enjoyed playing and replaying some of the NES games though.

From the above list pac man would be my most anticipated title.

I don't think Mega Man is all too likely because the Legacy Collection already exists. Everything else is fair game, though.

Metroid, Xenoblade, EarthBound shill

I run a YouTube/Twitch channel for fun. Check me out if you want to!

Please let me know before you send me a FC request, thanks.

My biggest hope would be the complete Castlevania trilogy. It just seems odd to have the Belmonts as two of the biggest newcomers to Smash Ultimate without even a single one of their games on Switch. At the very least we've got Bloodstained Curse of the Moon, which does seem like a fantastic Castlevania in all but name.

But honestly I've hardly any interest in the NES online games, I'd prefer that they add SNES games as soon as possible. Maybe even other consoles, like Game Boy. Really, anything would be better than just NES games, which are mostly not very fun to play nowadays. Of course I doubt that Nintendo will actually do any of this, but I guess I can hope.

Mario Galaxy is ten years old, and now I feel old.

Besides the rest of the games in the NES Classic, SMB Lost Levels (FDS) sounds like a possibility, since it previously came out on Virtual Console. Maybe not this month, but we'll see.

@ilikeike Yeah I definitely agree that they should put in Castlevania 1-3. SNES and even Game Boy games would certainly be appreciated. I would at the very least throw in SNES games, that console has games that are just too good to ignore.

Personally I'd rather see a Castlevania Legacy Collection like the Mega Man Legacy Collection - even if that means the games don't turn up in the online game collection. They're just such great games and it's a cohesive series on NES that I'd appreciate the extra work in the package - a boss rush mode, NES remix style challenges, a virtual museum of the games etc.

Dumping a ROM wouldn't do the games justice.

Strange they haven’t announced the January lineup yet.

It seems pretty clear that the next batch will be an announcement in a Direct. How to make it interesting?

Well they could announce other Nintendo Switch Online stuff alongside it like a Switch OS update or have an exciting announcement after it like something related to Smash Ultimate.

What are the chances they start giving away the old GB Pokemon games for free?

Who am I kidding, those are going to be $20 games with their own empty box and a download code...
