Dear Gamers,

During the recent Nintendo Direct Livestream, Nintendo announced a number of N64 games that will be coming to the Nintendo Switch within the coming months and years.

These games will be added to the Nintendo Switch online expansion packs.

Unfortunately, we didn’t get a specific release date for these additions.

But we do know a few titles which will be added. These titles include:

Pokemon Stadium

Pokemon Stadium 2

Goldeneye 007

Pilotwings 64

Mario Party

Mario Party 2

Mario Party 3

1080 Snowboarding

Excitebike 64

The standard Nintendo Switch online expansion offers NES and Super NES games, along with online play, for $20 per year.

The more expensive Nintendo Switch expansion is the one that offers the new titles.

This expansion includes N64, Genesis, GameBoy, and GameBoy Advance Games, for $50 per year.

In other Nintendo-related news, It was announced during the Nintendo Direct Livestream that the very popular co-op game It Takes Two will be coming to the Nintendo Switch on the 4th of November.

It was initially released in 2021 on platforms such as Playstation, Xbox, and PC.

Here’s a brief introduction if you haven’t heard about this game.

It Takes Two is an exclusive co-op action-adventure platform game that can be played online or on split-screen.

The story follows a divorced couple who get transformed into dolls and embark on a wild adventure to restore their relationship.

You are required to work together in order to overcome certain obstacles and solve puzzles.

I am yet to try this game for myself, but with the upcoming release on the Switch, I can see myself playing this whenever I go over to a friend’s place.
