Yesterday, we posted an article about @KapuccinoHeck datamining the NES Switch Online app and finding 22 SNES games. Now, more information has arisen, with @OatmealDome finding four different emulators within the data, two being for the NES Classic and the SNES Classic.

I was looking through the NES Switch app with @KapuccinoHeck and @Simon1844. I found four emulator types:

Kachikachi (NES Classic)
Canoe (SNES Classic)
Hiyoko (???)
Count (???)

This could mean there will be two new Classic consoles and/or three new consoles for Switch Online.

(Do note that the NES Switch online app is basically a port of the NES Classic emulator.)

This could mean that we might not only be receiving SNES games, but games from other classic Nintendo consoles.

Do you think the two unknown emulators would be for Nintendo 64 and GameCube games? Or perhaps for Game Boy and Game Boy Advance games? Let us know in the Comments section below
