Nintendo Switch Online’s Next Wave of N64 Games Confirmed – CNET [CNET]

Mario Party, Pokemon Stadium and more classic games are coming to Nintendo’s subscription service.

Nintendo has outlined the next batch of classic Nintendo 64 games coming to the Nintendo Switch Online plus Expansion Pack subscription service.

The company is bringing N64 launch game Pilotwings 64 to the service this week, on Oct. 13, with Mario Party 1 and Mario Party 2 slated to follow later this year. The beloved James Bond game GoldenEye 007 is also “coming soon” with added online play.

After that, Nintendo will be adding Mario Party 3, Pokemon Stadium 1 and 2, 1080 Snowboarding and Excitebike 64 to the service in 2023.

Nintendo has been rolling out new N64 games almost monthly since the Expansion Pack plan launched in October 2021. Recent additions to the service include Wave Race 64, Pokemon Puzzle League and Pokemon Snap.

An individual subscription to the Expansion Pack plan costs $50 a year, while a family plan costs $80. The latter covers up to eight Nintendo Accounts across multiple systems.

In addition to N64 games, the Expansion Pack plan offers access to a library of classic Sega Genesis titles, as well as select Switch DLC like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Course Pass and Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ Happy Home Paradise. Three additional titles were added to the Genesis library on Sept. 15: Alisia Dragoon, Beyond Oasis, and Earthworm Jim.
