@Fizza I think if Goldeneye was coming out in 2023 outside Japan, they wouldn't have put "coming soon" in the Direct outside Japan. Leaning towards October 5th for Goldeneye given the 60th anniversary of Dr. No film and Microsoft has no 1st party Game Pass releases for October.

As for the rest, I get the feeling Superstars will get DLC (day 1 in the Expansion Pack) coinciding with N64 additions otherwise I think the N64 Mario Party games would be spread out more (e.g. MP1 in 2022, MP2 in Summer 2023, MP3 in Holiday 2023). So I'm predicting Pilotwings in late October/early November and Mario Party 1+2 in late November/December (Mario Party 3 being January).

@Grumblevolcano MP2 has been confirmed for 2022 though so it genuinely might be the order in which they were revealed that they'll be coming out (in which case god we're going to be drowning in parties).

@Mauzuri I'd say its highly likely since we've gotten both Banjo Kazooie and Goldeneye already and, unlike those other two that have a bunch of company hoops to jump through, DK64 and Diddy Kong Racing are both owned by Nintendo so I'd say they'll probably be some of the last games added myself once we're nearing the Switch 2 (I for one would love to play DKR for the very first time ).

@Fizza I know both MP1 and MP2 are 2022, I was just saying I figured they'd be more spread out if Superstars DLC wasn't happening given Superstars and NSO Expansion Pack are essentially competing with each other (both are heavily focused on MP1-3).

@Fizza Is that a Switch game redemption code I see? CJNE-JWFW-JFVW-BOQF YEP it could well be! 🤣

@TowaHerschel7 Forgive my ignorance but what are you talking about?

@Fizza I highly doubt Nintendo will drop NSO on Switch when it's successor is released. I imagine Switch will still get GB/GBC/GBA games added at the very least with all new additions to existing consoles on the service being cross-gen. Switch may get even more support then that, but I imagine this would be the bare minimum we'd get even if Switch 2 released tomorrow.

@Fizza That was the gibberish you wrote being silly in your above post, I was just being silly as well pointing out that the gibberish had the right number of "digits" to be a game redemption code on the Switch eShop. 🤪

@TowaHerschel7 oh my god I'm such an idiot XD 🤪

Wouldn't mind an eShop code to be fair. Got Celeste?

Is pilotwings hard? Ive played it on super Nintendo. And can't get past 4th flight area.

@Grumblevolcano @Fizza @kkslider5552000 Not sure if Nintendo's servers are experiencing a hiccup, but the N64 App appears to be under maintenance in the States. Could we be getting a new game in the upcoming hours? 🤔

@TowaHerschel7 Today is the best chance of Goldeneye appearing if this year.

@Grumblevolcano Goldneye was apparently listed as 2023 in the Japanese Direct though so my guess (or rather my hope) is that this'll be Mario Party.

Will donkey kong be on NSO expansion. I Don't know if I ever played it. Wonder if it is any good.

Pilotwings 64 is the next game launching October 13th:

@Grumblevolcano Awesome. That means we have 3 games left for this year, right?

@Kermit1 2 guaranteed games for the rest of the year, Mario Party and Mario Party 2. So if Goldeneye is 2023 outside Japan, it seems pretty much guaranteed that N64 additions are only Mario Party games for November to January (1 and 2 for November and December would be guaranteed but at that point, 3 for January is extremely likely).

@Grumblevolcano Fingers crossed we even get 2... But I do think we will get 2.

@DarthNocturnal That would be awesome if Nintendo did a surprise reveal shadow dropping Smash 64 the day of that video.

SO that means I'm going to get rekt in Smash 64 online... yay

Well I was hoping Mario Party would come a bit earlier but I am very excited to try out Pilotwings 64 for the very first time (especially when the trailer was nothing like what I thought it was going to be).

This does mean a Mario Party game will be coming out in the month of my birthday though so perhaps it's even better than just October.

It's been a long time since I've played Pilotwings 64, so I'm looking forward to revisiting it. I used to have that game for the N64, but I no longer have it.

@Fizza Assuming that they come out with a Mario Party game each month after Pilotwings, Mario Party 3 would come out on my birthday month as well! That'd be a nice birthday present for me, lol.
