Two beloved Mario titles will make the jump to the Nintendo Switch next month.
Announced today, Mario Party and Mario Party 2 will make their way to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, which is part of the Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online collection, on November 2.
Unveiled in 1999 in North America, Mario Party became one of the most beloved party video games of all time with nearly 3 million copies sold worldwide. Its sequel (2000’s Mario Party 2) continued the fun with a slew of new minigames. An announcement trailer can be seen below.
