Nintendo Switch Online adds two more Nintendo 64 titles to its classic library



Two classic titles join the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack game lineup. Available starting April 24th will be the motorcycle racing game Extreme G and another quirky racing game, Iggy's Reckin' Balls. Both titles will feature local and online multiplayer.

Today, two racing games originally released on the Nintendo 64™ system are bringing full throttle thrills to players with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership! Careen around rollercoaster racetracks in Extreme-G™ and bounce up, up and away in the offbeat Iggy’s Reckin’ Balls™ game when these titles join the Nintendo 64 - Nintendo Switch Online library.

Not going to lie, first time hearing/seeing Iggy's Reckin Balls.

I own several 90s Nintendo magazines and none mentioned that game.
Maybe the infamous N64 Magazine did but I only have 3 incomplete magazines.

Kinda curious to try it in my Wii's Not64, Nintendo Switch Online Service Expansion Pack... thingie... whatever:rolleyes:

I played tons of XG2 as a kid, and vaguely remember seeing Iggy's Ball game at blockbuster many times and passed it up for probably better titles. Still, curious if many people get genuinely excited for these ROMs just because they're on a switch.

Because they're free for most people on this site.

What a good service, thank you for these N64 games Nintendo. I love wasting money instead of using emulators to play for free decades ago. :wub:
Literally applies to any of the services on any of the systems and pirating in general. Thanks for the free games, but I've already been pirating them for free. Cool beans dude.

The thing is, with pirated ones you can take the file anywhere you want to another PC, Laptop, Android, Console, etc, but when it's via a subscription you're locked to obeying their rules.

That's fine as people signed up and paid for the service, but a bit sad, though.

PSP Go got so much shit for going digital too early and now most don't mind it being just rentals.

    VR had the chance to integrate with existing games and tech but VR companies said "NO, I WANT MY SHIT TO BE STANDALONE AND MY GAMES EXCLUSIVE TO FACEBOOK"

    Back when Oculus Rift was still starting out and being demoed around, they modded existing games to use it as a 360° immersive screen thing and that was AMAZING.

    The tech isn't there for affordable power enough VR headsets at a good market value yet sadly, oculus had a good idea but didn't have enough funds for marketing iirc

    But now it's "can I use my VR set with my racing games, that would be neat?" "ONLY IF YOU USE OUR DILDOSTICK CONTROLLERS AND RUN THE GAME ON OUR ANDROID-UNDERPOWERED BRICK"

    The tech to have quality VR goggles at an affordable price is here, but every set has to have 4 additional controllers and be standalone.

    These are the same type of gamers that spend $2,000 on a GPU when a $600 GPU gives nearly the same outcome which is what the market looks at for them to do spend more on unneeded bs
