Japan’s Switch Online SEGA Genesis controller has six buttons
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
We recently learned that a SEGA Genesis controller will be offered as an optional product for fans to buy as part of Nintendo Switch Online. If you’re a member, you’ll have an opportunity to buy the device, which is compatible with the classic games that will soon be added to the service.
What you may not know is that in Japan, a different version of the SEGA Genesis controller is planned with six buttons. The western version only has three. It’s true that the SEGA Genesis controller was initially limited to three buttons when it originally released, though it saw a different version with six buttons later on, and it wasn’t just limited to Japan.

We’ve already seen a number of games confirmed, ranging from Nintendo classics like Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Super Mario 64 to the somewhat unexpected like Banjo-Kazooie. However, in Japan, two additional titles were already confirmed. Custom Robo and Custom Robo V2 will both be available in the region.

[Let’s Talk] Which classic system should be added to Nintendo Switch Online next?
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk | 0 comments
If there was ever a time for a new library of games to join Nintendo Switch Online, it would probably be right around now, so something like Game Boy could make sense. No new NES games were added during the latest update in July. Furthermore, Nintendo seems to be running low on heavy hitters for SNES titles. So what could be next?
N64 followed the SNES in terms of Nintendo generations, but it’s not exactly a lock for Switch Online. Nintendo has shown more interest in remaking and individually re-releasing N64 titles such as Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Star Fox 64 3D, and Super Mario 64’s inclusion in Super Mario 3D All-Stars on Switch. Game Boy and Game Boy Color could be possible for Nintendo Switch Online. Or what if those systems were skipped over for the GBA?
What do you think the future of classic titles could be for Nintendo Switch Online? Let us know in the comments below.
