Four more SNES games have been added to Nintendo Switch Online, and unlike Game Boy Advance or N64 games, you're not going to need an Expansion Pack addon to enjoy these.

The first game to be added to the service's retro lineup is Battletoads Double Dragon, a Rare-developed beat-'em-up that serves as a crossover between the two titular franchises (both of which have since seen revivals).

As you can probably imagine, it's a combination of the fast and furious button-mashing action of both Battletoads and Double Dragon, so check this one out if you've got some frustration to work out on your controller.

Battletoads Double Dragon should provide some enjoyable beat-'em-up action on Nintendo Switch Online today.

Your next SNES game for today is Kunio-kun no Dodgeball da yo Zen'in Shūgō!, a Japan-only dodgeball-themed spinoff of the Kunio-kun franchise (which is known as River City in the West).

As you've probably guessed, this will be the first time the game has been available in the West, although it will still be entirely in Japanese. Hopefully, you can still fire it up and enjoy a good old-fashioned game of dodgeball, Kunio-kun style.

Next, it's Namco's 1992 puzzler Cosmo Gang the Puzzle, a block-stacking puzzle game in which you must clear your screen of clutter. You might be familiar with this one as Pac-Attack, a reworked version of the game featuring Pac-Man that was released in the West the following year.

Finally, you're getting 1989 racer Big Run, an arcade racing game in which you can experience a very early video game version of the Paris-Dakar rally. Neat, right?

All four of these games are available right now for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, along with a wealth of other titles across the NES, the SNES, and the Game Boy. You can sign up for a Switch Online membership via your Switch console if you're interested.
