Starting this week, subscribers to Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack you can play Nintendo 64’s Banjo-Kazooie, a gem of the 3D platformer genre that could be considered a better game than some Super Mario installments. It seems that Nintendo will continue with its plan to add 1 game per month to the service, and the next to arrive will be The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask.
Since the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack arrived and gave us access to SEGA Genesis and Nintendo 64 games, we have been able to play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, considered by many to be the best video game of its generation and one of the the most influential for the industry. After a few months its sequel will arrive with The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask is not a conventional sequel, as Nintendo developers re-used most of the assets from Ocarina of Time to deliver an experience with a very different feel. In this game we control a child Link, who only has 3 days to save the world before a terrifying looking moon crashes to earth and wipes out all of Termina and its inhabitants.
When Nintendo announced the games coming to the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack, revealed some of the upcoming Nintendo 64 releases. We already got Paper Mario and Banjo Kazooie, with The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask scheduled for next month, so only Pokemon Snap, Mario Golf, F-Zero X and more remain. Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards among those previously announced.

Last year Nintendo boasted that the subscription service for nintendo switch online had reached 32 million subscribers, so they promised to continue increasing the value of their service. One of the strategies to increase the value of the service is to add a Nintendo 64 game to the NSO Expansion Pack every month, even though this pace seems very slow to Nintendo fans.
