Nintendo announces a classic Mario title from the Super Nintendo is now available on the Nintendo Switch Online subscription service.
Nintendo has officially announced the release of Mario Paint on the Nintendo Switch Online service. This classic retro Mario title has been added to the Super Nintendo channel, and for those who don’t already own a Nintendo Switch 2, it might require a peripheral to play. Nintendo Switch Online is a paid service which includes access to several retro Nintendo games for free, and the Super Nintendo channel is currently included with the basic digital subscription.
This marks the first Super Nintendo game added to Nintendo Switch Online since March 2025, and the first time a notable Mario title from the 16-bit era has been added to the service in years. As of late, the company has clearly been more focused on re-releasing popular Nintendo 64 and GameCube titles, so it’s nice to see a cult classic first-party Mario title coming to the digital platform after several years of waiting.
