Nintendo Switch Online Welcomes Mario Party, Mario Party 2 To Nintendo 64 Virtual Library Today

To many, the value for Nintendo Switch Online only grows with the additional title that continue to be update to the service. And with the Nintendo 64 & Sega Genesis virtual libraries tied to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, many question why not pay for the premium tier. This past summer featured additions like Wave Racer 64 alongside the later welcoming for Pilotwings 64 as well.

Additionally, the service also featured titles Alisia Dragoon, Beyond Oasis, and Earthworm Jim as part of the Sega Genesis virtual libraries too. But Nintendo made a big promise earlier on for titles like Goldeneye 007, ExciteBike 64, and Pokémon Stadium. Well, the first of these happens to be Mario Party for the Nintendo 64 virtual console.

On Wednesday, both Mario Party & Mario Party 2 will be added to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. You can watch the official trailer in the video below:

“This isn’t a Mushroom Mix-Up! Two classic Mario Party™ games are crossing the board to join the Nintendo 64™ library on the Nintendo Switch™ system – and there are no red spaces in sight! Starting Nov. 2, Mario Party and Mario Party™ 2 will be available for everyone with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership as part of the Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online collection,” Nintendo writes in the blog post.

“Mario Party launched for the Nintendo 64 system in 1999 and was the original party-starter for the series! In this classic four-player party game, you’ll join Mario and friends across nine action-packed Adventure Boards and 56 minigames in colorful multiplayer* (or solo!) competition.

“Keep the party going with Mario Party 2 and celebrate like it’s the year 2000 all over again! Mario and his Mushroom Kingdom friends return for another round of Bowser-bashing board-game action, complete with fancy costumes, new Adventure Boards and minigames.” What of the two are you planning to play first?
