There wasn't a big update regarding any new Nintendo Switch Online services this E3, but we do still get our monthly fix of new NES games. I played them briefly and share my thoughts below. THE GAMES: ![]() CITY CONNECTION: - A side-scrolling platformer where you drive a car around what is apparently New York City, and you try to travel as many miles as you can (denoted by you "painting" the roads") while avoiding the police. Controls aren't that great, but otherwise a passable experience. ![]() DOUBLE DRAGON II: THE REVENGE - The sequel to the acclaimed and beloved beat-'em-up game. I didn't like it as much as the first one, but it's still fun (probably more fun with a second player). ![]() VOLLEYBALL - Another one of them NES sports games. Kinda hard to play. We also get one SP game in addition: ![]() TWINBEE SP - Another glorified save state that drops you in later into the game. I think it's become a rule that all SP games for shmups do this exact thing. I'm honestly underwhelmed by this month's selection of games, which really speaks to the fact that Nintendo's starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel for this service. I'm really hoping a fresh new bonus for Switch Online subscribers is on the horizon, especially with the anniversary coming up this September.
