Description:
Mario Golf will have you teeing off later this month.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

The next Nintendo 64 game to be added to the Nintendo Switch Onlines premium Expansion Pack tier is sports classic Mario Golf.

Revealed by Nintendo in a tweet, the much-loved sport will arrive on the Nintendo Switch s subscription service on April 15.

Released back in 1999, Mario Golf was the first entry in the plumbers golfing series and is generally considered to be a solid sports game despite its cast of platforming characters. While other sports games have previously featured Nintendos main mascot, including 1995s Mario Tennis, this was the first to resemble a modern Mario sports game.

It must have done something right as the series is still going today, with Mario Golf: Super Rush releasing only last year. Get into the swing!

Mario Golf will join F-Zero , which was added to the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack last month, and The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask, which
joined the month before that .

After its added this April, the total number of N64 games included in the subscription platform will sit at 14, and include classics like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Banjo-Kazooie, and Super Mario 64.

Pokmon Snap and Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards are also due to be added
sometime down the line.

To play them, youll need to take out a subscription for the service.
Alongside netting you the N64 games, youll also get access to a bunch of Sega Genesis and Mega Drive titles to dig into, on top of the NES and SNES games that come with the standard Switch Online subscription.
