It oozed plenty of 90s charm and fashion sense. The secret levels, frantic gameplay, and couch co-op made Zombies Ate My Neighbors something of a cult classic. Despite starting off with squirtguns, they could arm themselves and upgrade to tomatoes, silverware, sodas, and even a bazooka. Players had to prioritize rescuing their neighbors, however, as the game would end if they all died. Players took control of Zeke or Julie, two ordinary teenagers, and fought off Martians, chainsaw-wielding maniacs, werewolves, and, yes, zombies. Of course, the franchise is now the property of Disney.
Published by Konami, the original featured dozens of levels with a top-down arcade feel. Zombies Ate My Neighbors and the sequel Ghoul Patrol will come bundled in the eShop on June 29. Starting June 29, players can relive an old LucasArts classic and its sequel. Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Ghoul Patrol Coming to Nintendo Switch
