1080° Snowboarding (which originally came out on the Nintendo 64) is one of the games hitting the Wii U Virtual Console this week, in Europe. It’s the US version (runs at 60Hz).
"Pokémon Stadium, Mario Party, Pilotwings 64, 1080° Snowboarding, Excitebike 64, & more will be gradually added to the Nintendo 64 library on Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. Stay tuned for more details in the future! "
And for Japan, they're also getting Harvest Moon 64.
Great additions all around, especially the shock of the year with GoldenEye finally seeing the light of day for the time since 1997. Mario Party 1-2-3 still get played in my house with the original carts and system, but this will make it much more convenient for hangouts.
Nintendo 64 games are coming to Nintendo Switch Online, but it isn't a comprehensive list: Here are 10 N64 NSO additions we want to see.
Wave Race 64, Turok, and Majora's Mask are probably my favorite games on the console.
NintendoLife writes: "1080° Snowboarding on the N64 and its sequel 1080° Avalanche on the GameCube are both fondly remembered arcade style snowboarding games, which were overshadowed a bit by EA's SSX series back in the day. Still it seems that Nintendo has a fond spot for the series as it's recently trademarked the name "1080° Ten Eighty"."
At the time 1080 was a great game and is still a great game to play I use to play the hell out of the game. I am glad to see Nintendo taking interest in this title and I can't wait to play it.
I'm excited but slightly hesitant after previous trademark bust. Would be great to see this, Wave Race, and Pilotwings back on the Switch.
Oh yeah, had to refresh my memory. I never played cool boarders but I did loved snowboard kids. For some reason I remembered it as cool boarders my bad.
