One of the perks Nintendo Switch Online subscribers will receive when the service launches is access to classic NES games. Even better, they’ll support online play.

Nintendo posted a screenshot today showing Super Mario Bros. 3 with Nintendo Switch Online as it’ll appear on the system. Basically, it’s the game as you remember it – but now you’ll be able to play it with a friend online, even if they’re on the other side of the world.

Amazon UK is listing several placeholders for Switch – though it’s unclear how long they’ve been present on the retailer’s website.

A quick search of the placeholders can be found here. Some are a bit questionable, as a couple have the Pokemon logo while another features the Smash Bros. Ultimate boxart.

Often these placeholders point to an upcoming event like a Nintendo Direct, but we’re not entirely sure if that’s the case here. Again, no one has been able to pinpoint how long they’ve been on Amazon UK thus far. There are a couple of possible errors as well with the Pokemon and Smash Bros. pages. Still, Gamescom is just on the horizon, and you never know when a Nintendo Direct will be taking place.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
