Nintendo Switch Online adds two new games on July 17: Donkey Kong 3, and more

Nintendo reveled today the new games that will be given out for free to those subscribed to Nintendo Switch Online service.

The two games that will be added are the following: Donkey Kong 3 and Wrecking Crew. In addition, the service will also be adding a new “Rewind” feature that are available to use with the entire collection of Nintendo Entertainment System – Nintendo Switch Online games. Players can rewind gameplay by pressing and holding the ZL + ZR buttons.

Here’s an overview of the two games:

  • Donkey Kong 3 – Based on the third game in the enormously popular arcade series, Donkey Kong 3 introduces an exterminator named Stanley as he desperately tries to protect the flowers in his greenhouse from Donkey Kong. Armed only with a can of bug spray, Stanley must force Donkey Kong higher and higher into the greenhouse rafters until Donkey Kong is off the screen and the next stage is reached.
  • Wrecking Crew – In the days before Mario and Luigi became sports stars in their downtime from saving the princess, they tried their hands as one-man wrecking crews. With a hammer as their only tool, take control of the brothers and set out to destroy ladders, rip out pipes, knock out walls and detonate explosive devices. But make sure to plan your path of destruction carefully, as each building is designed as its own clever puzzle.

In the Nintendo Switch Online app for Switch, players will be able to play classic Nintendo Entertainment System games that Nintendo puts up every month. With online play added to every classic games, players can compete or cooperate online with friends, share your screen or pass the controller, depending on the game.
