Changes in Nintendo Switch Online version

Postby Gav the Monster » Wed Oct 14, 2026 2:38 pm

This is one of the games offered on the Sega Genesis/MegaDrive app on the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. I played this version a few years back but my membership ended and haven’t renewed it since. Either way, there’s a minor amount of changes in the game that I noticed and wanted to share:

1 - The level 99 bug is fixed. I got all four main characters to the level and confirm there’s nothing wrong with this time around. The fifth characters were all level 75-80 or something.

2 - Flashing effects are not toned down. In the Japanese version of the game, flashing effects were a lot brighter, but were patched to be less so in the western release. Strangely, this version doesn’t have the toned down flashing.

3 - The Holocaust combination was renamed Decimate, probably for obvious reasons.

I can’t remember if there was any other changes, not ones I remember in detail anyways. Just thought I’d share these.
