These special editions of these Nintendo classics have all of its in-game content available at the start. In the case ofSuper Mario World SP, it will give players maxed out lives, as well as the Fall theme that is unlocked upon completion of the Star Road secret levels. Players can see this theme applied to the overworld map in Dinosaur Land, seeing that it has a complete makeover and color scheme. A bunch of new elements will be added as well if a player starts a new adventure too.
As forSuper Punch Out!! Championship Edition, every single circuit and every single opponent in the game will be available to the player at the start. These include the Minor Circuit, Major Circuit, and World Circuit options for fans to punch through along with the unlockable Special Circuit, only available upon completion of all previous circuits. In addition to this, a Time Attack mode will also be available for players to test their skills in as well.
These additions to theNintendo Switch Onlinelibrary should make for an interesting revisit for fans. This is also good for fans who want to challenge themselves in these retro classics without needing to complete all the other content beforehand and just want to get to the hard levels. This is especially true inSuper Mario World’s case, as with maxed out lives, players can try as many times as they wish without the worry of a game over.
