After multiple rumors, Nintendo finally announced a new F-Zero. Technically it’s F-Zero from the Super NES era, but with an online battle royale twist. F-Zero 99 follows the likes of Tetris 99 and sees 99 players competing in races online. It’s available later today, exclusively for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers. Check out the first trailer below.
Get ready for dirt bike soccer, Excitebike 64 gets added to Nintendo Switch Online on August 30
25.08.2023 - 15:03 / destructoid.com / Nintendo
Nintendo has announced that the next game joining the Nintendo Switch Online (Expansion Pack) line-up. Excitebike 64 will be arriving on August 30.
Excitebike 64 is generally remembered as being a better-than-expected motocross game. It was a rather strange title where, if you looked past the rather generic visuals and excess of dirt, you’d be rewarded with a lot of strangeness. This includes a soccer mini-game that the internet likes to call the original version of Rocket League and an endless desert.
It also got an unexpectedly awesome trailer:
I rented Excitebike 64 back in the day and loved it. When I reunited with it years later, I couldn’t find that same spark. I pick it up every now and then, trying to remember why I loved it so much, and still can’t do it. There’s too much dirt. Too much bike. Not enough excite. Still, remember when Nintendo had its own line of sports games that didn’t involve Mario? I prefer Mario sports games over real ones, but I also love variety.
This is the fourth of five games Nintendo promised us for 2023. Many have been pointing out that somehow Mario Party 3 is currently the one left out. Considering the first two Mario Party games were released in 2022, it’s kind of strange that they aren’t in more of a hurry to complete the trilogy.
It would also be nice if they added more non-Nintendo titles. The Star Wars games, maybe? The Goemon games? Hybrid Heaven? It doesn’t really matter to me, personally, since I have an extensive N64 collection. However, there’s more to experience on the console than just Nintendo’s contributions.
Excitebike 64 will be arriving on the Nintendo Switch Online N64 app on August 30.

Nintendo Switch Online update adds Japanese titles and a licensed game
Typically, Nintendo Switch Online game updates come in two flavors. There are the exciting updates that bring all-time classic titles to the service. And then there are the weird updates that add a mix of obscure titles that seem to exist as curiosities at best. This month’s update maybe veers closer to that second camp, but it’s such a crazy mix of games that I mostly feel confusion over any kind of disappointment.

Get Ready for Starfield’s Early Access Launch In 3 Days
Starfield is easily one of the biggest and most anticipated video game titles launching this year. It’s also a big game for Microsoft, which could use a new exclusive that will incentivize players to pick up an Xbox Series X/S console platform. After all, the last big hyped-up exclusive fans were waiting on from Microsoft was Redfall, and that didn’t turn out very well.
