Super Soccer Removal: Last Chance to Play the SNES Classic on Nintendo Switch Online

Super Soccer to Be Delisted from Nintendo Switch Online: Key Dates and Details In a notable update for classic gaming fans, Nintendo Switch Online will be removing Super Soccer from its Super Nintendo (SNES) library.

This means subscribers have until March 27, 2025, to play Spike Chunsoft's celebrated sports title before it disappears from the service.

Super Soccer has enjoyed a prominent place in Nintendo Switch Online's retro game lineup since its introduction in September 2019, but the time to enjoy this classic is limited. Background on Super Soccer and Its Nintendo Switch Online History Super Soccer, released for the Super Nintendo in 1991 (originally titled Super Formation Soccer in Japan), is a soccer simulation game developed by Human Entertainment and published by Spike Chunsoft.

The title became known for its unique gameplay, which featured a dynamic 3D behind-the-goal perspective, enabling players to select from 16 distinct teams and utilize 8 unique tactical formations.

As one of the few third-party titles added to the Nintendo Switch Online SNES catalog, its presence has been especially appreciated by retro sports game enthusiasts. Nintendo confirmed that Super Soccer will be removed from the Switch Online library on March 27, 2025—potentially March 28 in some regions—marking the game's final day of availability for current subscribers.

The company has not provided any information on whether Super Soccer will return to the service in the future, making the current window the last confirmed chance to access the title via Nintendo Switch Online.

Players experience a soccer match from a behind-the-goal view, choosing from 16 basic teams with unique player rosters and 8 different formations."
