First, the good news: Nintendo will finally begin offering a way for Nintendo Switch owners to back up their currently vulnerable game save datastarting in September.

The first 10 of those NES games to be confirmed for inclusion at launch are:

- Balloon Fight
- Donkey Kong
- Dr. Mario
- Ice Climber
- The Legend of Zelda
- Mario Bros.
- Soccer
- Super Mario Bros.
- Super Mario Bros. 3
- Tennis
