Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Is A Must Have for the Switch

The Nintendo Switch Online Service just keeps getting better and better. Let’s talk about why the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack is a must have for the system!

I’ve had the Nintendo Switch Online Service since it first came out. I’ve really loved playing the NES and SNES games as they came out. That said, Nintendo made the service even better when they introduced the Nintendo Switch Expansion Pack!

With the Expansion Pack, players get access to Nintendo 64 games and Sega Genesis games. Not only that, but they also get access to the Happy Home Paradise DLC for Animal Crossing New Horizons, the Mario Kart Booster Course Pack, and the Splatoon 2 expansion pack.

I have to tell you something: I love Animal Crossing New Horizons. I know this a shock to many of you. Who knew I was an Animal Crossing fan? Ok, if you know me, then you already knew I was. And so getting the Happy Home Paradise DLC for free is a major thing for me. I love the HHP. Working for Lottie is fun, the beach is great and you can find extra recipes there and get lots of new items from working at HHP. So the AC DLC alone is worth it for me.

Though, we also have Mario Kart 8 in our house, so getting the Booster Course levels as they come out is also. All of them have been really fun so far.

I already have the Splatoon 2 pack but this is a really cool thing for those who don’t!

Thats not all the expansion pack offers though. As I mentioned there are N64 and Genesis games too. Tomorrow in fact, there will be TWO new N64 games! Mario Party and Mario Party 2! You will be able to play these two games online with your friends too. So cool. I’ve never played Mario Party or Mario Party 2 before so I’m looking forward to checking them out.

Goldeneye 007 for the N64 is coming in the future, along with Excitebike 64, 1080 Snowboarding, Pokémon Stadium 1 and 2, and Pilotwings 64. I’m so excited about checking out Goldeneye! I’ve never played it. Though, the other games will be cool too.

As for Genesis games, we rarely know about those ahead of time, but I’m sure Sega has some cool things in store for us.

Nintendo is always adding free trials or other things to the service too. Currently, OBAKEIDORO! is the free trial game. I haven’t played this one, but it looks neat.

Of course, we can’t forget that Nintendo Switch Online also gives us Online too. I use the online alot for Animal Crossing New Horizons and it works great.

There is so much value for the Nintendo Switch Online service! Its an excellent service. I can’t wait to see what they add next.

Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) Expansion Packis $49.99 US for a year!
