Nintendo 64 games are coming to Nintendo Switch Online

During the recent Nintendo Direct, Nintendo announced that games from the Nintendo 64 would be added to the Nintendo Switch Online service, with the first batch coming in October.

Here is the list of games available, coming on day one:

  • Super Mario 64

  • The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

  • Mario Kart 64

  • Star Fox 64

  • Sin and Punishment

  • Dr. Mario 64

  • Mario Tennis 64

  • WinBack

  • Yoshi’s Story

But Nintendo have also outlined some of the games to come in the future:

  • Banjo-Kazooie

  • Pokémon Snap

  • The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask

  • Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

  • Mario Golf

  • Paper Mario

  • F-Zero X

Of course a new series of retro games means a new retro controller and they have created a new wireless Nintendo 64 controller, complete with share button on the top. What this will cost members is not yet know, but $80 or around there would be a solid guess.

We must address the elephant in the room though, in order to gain access to these games, you have to upgrade your Nintendo Switch Online membership and with Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack (Nintendo really suck at naming things) they are the Sega Mega Drive titles will be available to you.
