Despite the fact that the first N64 game of the year is not yet accessible via the subscription service, this third set of icons is a pleasant touch for patient N64 enthusiasts. More icons devoted to vintage Nintendo platforms are usually eagerly anticipated and well appreciated. There is also talk that additional old consoles may get the special edition icon treatment, but only time will tell which ones.
Nintendo Switch Online’s reference to older Nintendo platforms has progressed from inadequate to promising throughout the years. Some applications’ game selection, such as the Super Nintendo game library, has been criticised for lacking popular titles from that period. However, fans have applauded the selection of AAA games from other old platforms, particularly the N64, with the launch of the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion option. Nintendo now looks to be focused on fleshing out what the subscription service has to offer in general. Hopefully, 2023 will bring even more surprises for Nintendo enthusiasts.
