Nintendo Switch Online’s game library swells this week with the addition of two obscure NES games and a Castlevania Game Boy game for Halloween.
First up is 1984’s Devil World, one of Shigeru Miyamoto, Takashi Tezuka, and Koji Kondo’s early NES games, now available in the U.S. for the first time. In this puzzle adventure, the player navigates mazes and avoids the machinations of the devil (the demon from Devil World is an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate). In Devil World, wherever the devil points, the maze scrolls in that direction, potentially restricting movement and closing off escape routes.
The second NES game is 1986’s The Mysterious Murasame Castle. In this feudal Japan-set game, a mysterious evil force takes control of Murasame Castle. You join a young samurai apprentice called Takamaru and use his sword and shuriken attacks against swarms of enemies.
And finally, 1998 Game Boy game Castlevania Legends sees the player take up arms as Sonia Belmont in a story set before the original Castlevania game.
A paid Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership is required to access Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online, SEGA Genesis – Nintendo Switch Online, and Game Boy Advance – Nintendo Switch Online libraries of games, and to access the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass, Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise, and Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion DLC at no additional cost.
