I was finally able to look around NES Online's strings a bit myself and noticed the sheer amount of SNES games planned.
Here's a list for you folks out there:#NintendoSwitch — Kapu | gamers will perish (@KapuccinoHeck) January 13, 2019
To no one's surprise, four Super Mario games are in the list: Super Mario Kart, Super Mario World, Super Mario All-Stars, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Other notable titles include The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Metroid, and F-ZERO, as well as three Kirby games: Kirby's Dream Course, Kirby Super Star, and Kirby's Dream Land 3.
Star Fox is in the mix too and even Star Fox 2, which is an SNES Classic Edition exclusive. Not to forget about the rest, there's Breath of Fire II, Contra III: The Alien Wars, Demon's Crest, Pilotwings, Pop'n Twinbee, Stunt Race FX, Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts, Super Punch-Out!!, Super Soccer, and The Legend of the Mystical Ninja.
Beefing Up Switch Online
Regardless of whether these games will really roll out or not, there's no telling when to expect them to be available. It's possible that they'll be released monthly or something along those lines in the future.
Switch Online has been offering NES games up for grabs. The latest titles that are officially in store include Zelda II: The Adventure of Link and Blaster Master. Now, thanks to the dataminer, it's been revealed that there's a good chance SNES games are coming soon.
The full code is available on Pastebin.
