Super Mario Party Jamboree may have arrived late in the Nintendo Switch lifecycle, but the franchise’s swansong on the aging handheld was well worth the price. With a strong collection of minigames and some fun new modes, it was one of the best Mario Party games to be released during a generation chock-full of them.
With Jamboree coming out so close to the Switch 2’s launch, it’s no surprise that it’s the latest game to get a paid upgrade for the new console. Unlike the examples we’ve seen since launch, like The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom’s Nintendo app integration and vastly improved performance, paying the $20 nets Jamboree owners access to exclusive new minigames that take advantage of the Switch 2’s features, as well as a handful of new ways to play via Jamboree TV mode. The upgrade will likely be mandatory for the biggest Mario Party fans, even if some of its more unique additions fall flat for casual players.
