Arcade Archives Mario Bros.

A little while back, Japanese magazine Nintendo Dream conducted a lengthy interview with Hamster CEO Satoshi Hamada. There was some very interesting discussion about releasing Arcade Archives Mario Bros. on Switch, including why it was selected first out of all Nintendo titles, how it even happened in the first place, working with Nintendo, and the intricate process used to bring it to the console.

The discussion started with Nintendo Dream thanking Hamster for bringing Arcade Archives to Switch. This marks the first time arcade titles from Nintendo have been completely ported, the first one being Mario Bros. Hamada explained that Arcade Archives was born from the desire to let as many people as possible to know about the past arcade games, and he also wants to expand it to many game consoles, including Switch.

Hamster’s lineup of NeoGeo games continues this week with Super Sidekicks 2. For a look at the classic game on Nintendo’s console, watch the footage below.

Aside from the NeoGeo title Stakes Winner, Hamster is also bringing over the arcade title 10-Yard fight. View some footage below.

Listings on the Japanese eShop reveal that Hamster is bringing two more classic games to Switch next week.

On the NeoGeo front, the sports title Super Sidekicks 2: The World Championship will be available. Hamster will also release its latest shooter Arcade Archives Terra Cresta.

Both games are slated for May 10 worldwide. Pricing is set at $7.99 / €6.99 / £6.29 each.
