Earthworm Jim 2 comes to Nintendo Switch Online
eurogamer.netNintendo has announced three new Switch Online games for March, and they include the 90's run and gun platformer Earthworm Jim 2.
Not many could slow their fall from a great height by ballooning out huge quantities of snot to make some kind of bogey-chute, but Earthworm Jim could. Now, he is back once more, thanks to this recent update from Nintendo.
Earthworm Jim 2 can be played through the Nintendo Switch Online's SNES app.
In addition to this piece of nostalgia, both Dig Dug 2 and Mappy-Land are also available to play through, this time via the Switch's NES app.
