Starting July 17, the Nintendo Switch will let players rewind NES gameplay easily with the push and hold of a couple of buttons.
For gamers who love playing NES games, it will be a great feature to use as many 8-bit games from the 1980s and 1990s have a high level of difficulty. Such games like Ninja Gaiden, Rygar, Battletoads, and Contra (without the Konami code) come to mind. Players back then had to go back to the start of a level or stage. In order to rewind NES gameplay, players will need to press and hold ZL + ZR.
Along with the Rewind feature, Nintendo will also bring Wrecking Crew and Donkey Kong 3 to its NES library on Switch.
