Nintendo Switch Online: Fans Spot Possible N64 Game Leaks Including Super Smash Bros.

Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) continues to be a focal point for retro gaming enthusiasts, thanks to its ever-expanding library of classic titles.

Launched by Nintendo, the NSO service grants Nintendo Switch subscribers access to a growing collection of NES, SNES, and Nintendo 64 games, and recently, eagle-eyed fans believe they have discovered strong evidence hinting at upcoming releases, including the original Super Smash Bros.

for Nintendo 64. At the center of the current excitement is a Nintendo Switch Online trailer released in late May.

While the trailer itself initially flew under the radar, its recent resurfacing has sent the Nintendo community into detective mode.

Fans began scrutinizing a specific segment around the 40-second mark, where the main menu showcasing N64 box art titles was intentionally blurred as the settings menu overlay appeared.

Social media posts have since filled up with detailed box art comparisons, with fans cross-referencing the blurred images to the unmistakable outline of Super Smash Bros.

alongside other classics such as Donkey Kong 64, Glover, and Forsaken. One dedicated fan commented online, stating that after comparing every N64 box art, Glover’s appearance above Smash Bros.

in the blur was a striking match, showing little doubt about its possible inclusion.

Meanwhile, others posted side-by-side comparisons on social media, suggesting Donkey Kong 64’s box art also makes a clear appearance among the blurred icons.

These findings, pieced together by the community, have generated hopes that these classics could soon join Nintendo's virtual library, though no official word has yet arrived from Nintendo. The potential addition of Super Smash Bros.

to Nintendo Switch Online is especially noteworthy.

While the game was previously re-released on the Wii Virtual Console, it has not made its way to either the Wii U's virtual catalog or the Switch’s digital service until now.

If confirmed, its appearance would mark the brawler’s first major digital release on modern Nintendo hardware since the Wii era—significant for fans and collectors alike. As of now, the last official Nintendo 64 title to launch on NSO was Killer Instinct Gold, which arrived for subscribers in May.

Nintendo continues to expand its online offerings in line with fan demand, and the addition of these long-awaited classics would further establish Nintendo Switch Online as a must-have for retro gaming enthusiasts. While official confirmation remains pending, the Nintendo community’s passion for tracking every clue reflects the anticipation surrounding Nintendo Switch Online’s N64 expansion.

For continued updates, fans can stay tuned for official announcements and further releases via Nintendo Direct presentations and the Nintendo eShop.
