With Jet Force Gemini still coming out at some point in the near future, Nintendo decided not to announce any new games this week for their Nintendo Switch Online service. Yeah, that sucks, but the good news is that we still have plenty of previously released games that haven’t been given the Review Crew treatment. I’m talking about genuine classics, like Super Punch-Out, Super Metroid and the original Star Fox. Sure, these games hit the subscription service years ago, but I still need to ask: Are any of these games worth playing? To answer that question, I decided to flip through the pages of Electronic Gaming Monthly, GamePro, Nintendo Magazine System and more classic magazines to see what the critics said back when these games first came out. Get ready to buy into the Super FX chip hype, because it’s time for another exciting episode of Nintendo Switch Online Review Crew!
