Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD have release dates for Nintendo Switch, while a sequel to The Super Mario Bros. Movie is coming in April 2026. As for the coming days, Nintendo is adding three Mario titles from the Game Boy era to Nintendo Switch Online on March 12th.

These include Dr. Mario on the Game Boy and Mario Golf and Mario Tennis for the Game Boy Color. Dr. Mario launched in 1990 and is a puzzle game akin to Tetris, where players must align different colored pills to destroy viruses. Mario Golf launched in 1999, and unlike its Nintendo 64 cousin, it offers a story mode and role-playing game elements.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, those features would find their way into the Game Boy Color version of Mario Tennis. It launched in 2001 and saw the player training at the Royal Tennis Academy, becoming champion and eventually going on to face Mario (though there are separate paths for singles and doubles).

As announced by Nintendo last week, Camelot Software’s acclaimed golfing sim Mario Golf from the Nintendo 64 era is now available for Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.

Each character has their own unique abilities and swinging styles, thus providing a variety of different ways to play. Players can also check the course from top to bottom and look for the best possible conditions to take a shot. There’s also a replay system to look back on any amazing plays.

On top of all of this, multiplayer support is included thus allowing one to golf with their friends. Along with Mario Golf, Nintendo has also added Banjo-Kazooie, The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask and many more N64 classics to the service.

The next Nintendo 64 title coming to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack has been announced and it’s Mario Golf. Released in 1999 and developed by Camelot Software, it will be added to the subscription service on April 15th. Check out the trailer below to see it in action on the Switch.

As a follow-up to 1987’s NES Tournament Golf, Mario Golf features 14 characters from the franchise including Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Wario and so on. Along with their own unique swinging styles, they also possess different powers for turning the tide in a match. Players can also analyze the course from different camera angles to determine the best possible shot.

Ten different modes are also on offer from Tournament and Speed Golf to Ring Shot and Mini-Golf. A replay system, taunts and multi-player support are all included. While not as sharp-looking as Mario Golf: Super Rush, Mario Golf received universal acclaim when it first released on the Nintendo 64.

Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack retails at $49.99 for 12 months (on an individual basis). Along with classic Nintendo 64 and Sega Genesis titles, it also provides access to DLC like Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ Happy Home Paradise and Mario Kart 8: Deluxe’s Booster Course Pass.
