519 days. That’s how long it has been since Nintendo uploaded a Genesis game to the Nintendo Switch Online. Now, after a year and a half, the long wait is finally over and three classic Genesis games have been added to the Expansion Pack. I’m talking about games like Mercs, Vectorman and ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron. That’s genuinely exciting (and unexpected) news, but are any of these games actually worth playing? To answer that question, I decided to flip through the pages of Electronic Gaming Monthly, Die Hard Game Fan, Mean Machines Sega and more classic magazines to see what the critics said back when these games first came out. Try to contain your excitement for another episode of Nintendo Switch Online Review Crew.
