Nintendo has announced via a new trailer the first additional N64 game to be added to the Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service. The new addition is Paper Mario 64 and it will be coming to the service on December 10th.
Paper Mario 64 is a great game and one of my favourite Nintendo 64 games and Mario RPGs. However, it is being added to the on its own to the Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack has us thinking that it is a huge possibility that all the other Nintendo 64 games that will be added in the future will also be drip fed singularly over time. On the plus side, I guess we will have a bit more time to play each game before the next addition.
