However, it is likely that a new list of titles for the service will be released sometime in January 2024.
From this list, the most interesting titles are Jet Force GeminiIt is a third-person shooter game, developed and published by Rare for the Nintendo 64 in 1999. The game is known for its cooperative multiplayer and combination of shooting, exploration and platforming elements. This installment presents us with a combination of shooting enemies, solving puzzles and exploring different planets. A notable aspect of Jet Force Gemini is the use of a system called “ants in your pants” which involves rescuing furry, bear-like animals called tribals. Players must save a certain percentage of tribals in each level to progress in the game.
Service is another great inclusion Harvest Moon 64, A classic farming simulation developed by Victor Interactive Software and published by Natsume. This installment came out in 1999 for the Nintendo 64 in Japan and later in 2000 in North America. In this installment, players inherit a ruined farm from their grandfather and are tasked with restoring it to its former glory. Major experiences include planting and growing crops, raising livestock, and building relationships with nearby townspeople. The game progresses through four seasons, each with its own set of crops to plant and festivals in which one can participate.
Finally, 1080° Snowboarding It was developed by Nintendo for the N64 and released in 1998 in Japan and North America and later in Europe.. The game is known for its realistic snow skating mechanics, challenging courses and impressive graphics for the time. The title was aimed at a realistic representation of the physics of snow skating for its time. Players can perform various maneuvers and tricks, such as grabs, spins and flips, while navigating the track.
These three are great options, especially for this time of year. We remind you that Harvest Moon 64, 1080° Snowboarding y Jet Force Gemini They are now available on the N64 app For those who pay for the Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription. On a related note, Donkey Kong Country Super comes to Nintendo World. Likewise, the rumored Switch Mini could be a reality.
Editor’s note:
Switch online more than justifies the price. Although at first this service was not worth much, over time it has become something that all users should have. However, many games are still missing, especially on the Game Boy and Game Boy Advance applications, something that may well change throughout 2024.
