Mario Party and Mario Party 2 coming to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack

Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack is adding Mario Party and Mario Party 2 to its slowly-growing Nintendo 64 collection of games on the Switch console.

Originally released in 1999 and 2000, Mario Party and Mario Party 2 brought board game and mini-game fun to the Nintendo 64. Now you can relive that retro fun on the Nintendo Switch for the first time.

Here’s a description of the N64 game from Nintendo:

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.

Mario Party and Mario Party 2 are available for Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers starting November 2. In addition to the benefits of Nintendo Switch Online, the Expansion Pack also gives you access to a selection of Nintendo 64 and Sega Genesis games. Nintendo Switch Online costs $20 per year while the inclusion of the Expansion Pack brings the total to $50.
