Mario Party, Pokemon Stadium Among Nintendo 64 Games Heading to Nintendo Switch Online

More Nintendo 64 games are coming to Nintendo Switch Online, and the next wave is including some classics in its Expansion Pack subscription service.

Press Start writes that the announcement comes from Nintendo Direct, saying that the original Mario Party Trilogy, the Pokemon Stadium games, and others are launching on Switch Online.

Users Can Expect More Games For Switch Online

Nintendo has outlined the inclusions for the next wave of games that will be introduced to the users of Nintendo Switch, who will get the Expansion Pack through the subscription.

Nintendo Switch gamers will get a chance to grow their library with nostalgic gamic titles featuring classical adventure games on their hybrid consoles.

According to CNet, the company is looking to bring back the beloved Mario Party 1 and Mario Party 2 games on October 13, along with Pokemon Stadium and Pokemon Stadium 2.

Nintendo Life also says that aside from these games, Japan will also be getting the Harvest Moon 64 game on Switch Online as well.

Previously, Nintendo revealed in September that Pilotwings 64 would be coming first as a preview of what the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack might offer.

Following this, Comic Book writes that the same announcement indicated that a few more games would be joining the lineup this year, which excited Switch Online users.

Just recently, the company confirmed the other Nintendo 64 games that will be released at some point in late 2022 or early 2023, as seen from their announcement trailer.

Among the games that will be released are others such as GoldenEye 007, Mario Party 3, 1080 Snowboarding and Excitebike 64, Press Start reports.

However, while there is an approximate date of release, Nintendo has not yet confirmed the exact and official release dates for the aforementioned games, Tech Times writes.

The Switch Online Expansion Pack Is Available For Subscribers Soon

As mentioned before, some games included in the Expansion Pack are set to release on October 13, but only for those who get the Nintendo Switch Online subscription.

More specifically, the Switch console users can get the Expansion Pack, which is currently available at $49.99 for one-time payment individual subscriptions.

Meanwhile, the family membership subscription tier will cost $79.99 and will also get an online services upgrade, which includes access to Nintendo 64 video games, Comic Book writes.

CNet says that in addition to a couple of Nintendo 64 games, the Expansion pack offers a plan that allows access to a library of Sega Genesis titles and select Switch DLCs.

These DLCs will include world-famous Switch games like Mario Kart 8: Deluxe's Booster Course Pass and Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Happy Home Paradise.

Last September, a few Sega Genesis games were added to the roster, including Alisia Dragoon, Beyond Oasis, and Earthworm Jim.

Nintendo has been releasing new N64 games every month since the plan launched in October 2021, including titles like Wave Race 64, Pokemon Puzzle League, and Pokemon Snap.
