Nintendo Switch Online May Add Super Smash Bros. N64

Nintendo enthusiasts are closely examining an official video promoting the Nintendo Switch Online catalog (the same one that unveiled the Switch 2-exclusive CRT filter), and they're convinced they've spotted the blurry box art for N64 classic Super Smash Bros.

This discovery has sparked speculation that the beloved fighting game might be making a comeback through backwards compatibility soon - and now the community is scouring through other obscured artwork for clues.

A grassroots investigation spearheaded by X/Twitter user ImakuniVT has fans experimenting with blur effects on N64 box art to match the level of distortion in Nintendo's video, then comparing the results for potential matches. Is this method bulletproof? Hardly. But have fans already shared their "evidence" suggesting other N64 favorites are coming anyway? Absolutely.

Beyond Super Smash Bros., other speculated titles include Donkey Kong 64 (which could perfectly complement the upcoming Donkey Kong Bananza!), Ubisoft's platformer Ratman 2, retro FPS Forsaken, and the quirky platformer Glover.

The potential revival of Super Smash Bros. on Switch opens up exciting multiplayer possibilities - could Nintendo potentially introduce some form of online functionality? While fans eagerly await news about the inevitable Switch 2 version (and while series creator Masahiro Sakurai continues work on his new Kirby project), this speculation keeps the community buzzing.

Recently, the Switch 2-exclusive Nintendo Switch Online catalog expanded its GameCube lineup with Super Mario Strikers, joining launch titles like The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, F-Zero GX, and Soulcalibur 2. Other confirmed upcoming additions include Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, and Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness.
