It’s Trivia Time!
Another month another trivia question! Did you answer last month’s question: ‘What is the oldest classic title available to play within the Nintendo Switch Online classic libraries?’
That was a tricky one, but if you checked the classic library section within this app, you’ll find the answer is classic NES game ‘Devil World’ released on 10/05/1984!
Get into the spirit of Halloween this year by playing Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD and Luigi’s Mansion 3. Luigi’s a bit nervous when it comes to ghosts, but he has done his fair share of saving others. Can you guess how many of the games in Nintendo Switch Online’s classic libraries feature Luigi as a playable character?
Happy gaming, everyone! See you next month for more Nintendo Switch Online fun!
