Back in late June, NASA revealed that sensors on its Curiosity rover were returning alarmingly high readings of methane that came seemingly out of nowhere. Determining where that methane came from — and whether the process responsible for it are geological or biological — is now a major area of research for scientists. A new study led by Newcastle University doesn’t offer a definitive answer, but it does bring us one tantalizing step closer.

After all, unlike the $60 yearly subscriptions that Sony and Microsoft offer for PlayStation Plus and Xbox Live, Nintendo Switch Online costs $20 a year, so free games were just a bonus. But it wasn’t long before customers realized there simply weren’t that many NES games worth playing.

At this point, Nintendo Switch Online features more than 40 NES games, and while some of them are classics, many are completely forgettable. Therefore, Switch owners have been anxiously awaiting news about more consoles being added to the service, and while there haven’t been any announcements yet, a patent that appeared online this week is the most compelling evidence yet that SNES games are indeed coming to Switch Online.

You need to watch the movie at home, now that the digital release is available, so you can stop playback whenever you need to inspect a frame in greater detail.
