If you’re one of those weirdos who’s never played SMB 3, firstly, what the hell is wrong with you? Secondly, I urge you to jump on this as soon as you can. It is, without a doubt, the best side-scrolling Mario game and probably the best NES title. Do not @ me.
If you’re keen on Nintendo Switch Online, you’ve got a few options to jump on come September. You can choose from a 1-month subscription ($5.95), a 3-month subscription ($11.95), a 12-month subscription ($29.95), or a family membership ($54.95).
Other games you’ll get access to include The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, and Ice Climbers. There’s also 10 more to be announced, so keep an eye out for those as well.
