Nintendo has now revealed a new set of Super Nintendo games landing on Nintendo Classics for Switch Online members. Last we checked in the Game Boy Advance lineup got a nice little update, but today we are turning our attention back to the iconic SNES with three new releases for the first October 2025 Games Update. 

October 2025 Switch Online Update – three new SNES games

Just after some additions to the GameCube lineup in the form of Super Mario Strikers and Chibi-Robo!, not to mention the classic Mario Paint with Switch 2 mouse controls, FORSAKEN for N64 in swirly September, Nintendo officially revealed the new Virtual Boy Switch Online library. But before we get a chance to slap on the re-created Virtual Boy hardware, we are looking at some new SNES titles for Switch and Switch 2 Online members. 

Three classic Super NES titles will be release on Super Nintendo – Nintendo Classics including the Mario & Wario action buzzer, BUBSY in: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind, and FATAL FURY SPECIAL. Nintendo says Mario & Wario “includes options to use mouse controls when played on Nintendo Switch 2”

Super NES – October 2025 Games Update trailer awaits below:

Here are some additional details from Nintendo on each of the three new SNES titles:

Mario & Wario

Action puzzles abound in this title released only in Japan for the Super Famicom™ system in 1993. Wario has dropped a bucket on poor Mario’s head, and now he can’t see! So it’s up to you to lead Mario safely to Luigi. Use the forest fairy’s magic wand to create platforms, change the direction Mario walks, and defeat enemies. You can clear a total of 100 screens full of unique challenges using simple controls—just move the mouse to move the fairy and click the left button once to perform actions.

BUBSY in: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind

Play as the furr-ocious feline himself in this action title released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System™ in 1993. Bubsy’s grand adventure begins when his precious yarn is stolen by a race of yarn-obsessed aliens, the Woolies. Gallivant across 16 total stages, each containing an average of 300 screens, packed with wacky enemies and kooky mechanics. Dash through every nook and cranny of these vast stages as you search for yarn balls scattered throughout and make for the goal.

FATAL FURY SPECIAL

This fighting game, released for the Super NES™ console in 1995, includes the original eight characters from FATAL FURY 2, as well as three new characters (Billy Kane, Axel Hawk, and Laurence Blood) and a new boss (Wolfgang Krauser). Additionally, three characters from the original FATAL FURY (Tung Fu Rue, Duck King, and Geese Howard) have returned to the fight. By building on the appeal from the previous game with its two-line battles, special moves, and powerful finishers, on top of further improving the series’s formula, this game is truly worthy of the title “SPECIAL.” And if you can meet certain special conditions, Ryo Sakazaki from the ART OF FIGHTING series will make a special guest appearance, which is noteworthy in itself!
