Super Mario Party Receives A Major Multiplayer Upgrade

This morning, Nintendo added a new major update to Super Mario Party, expanding the options for your multiplayer fun. According to Nintendo, they have added in Partner Party and the classic Mario Party board-game mode to be played online with friends through Nintendo Switch Online. What's more, they have also added in a "supercharged online soiree" with 70 minigames in the online Minigame mode that you can jump into with people without having to start a formal game.

You're probably wondering like us, "Why are we just getting this now and not when the game launched?" Good question. We don't know, and neither does anyone else, really. It seems like all of this was pretty easily accessible for them to throw into the game, almost like they planned it to expand the playability of the title. But the game has been out for two and a half years, so what was the point in giving it a much-needed major upgrade now and not say, three months after it came out? It also feels super late considering this would have been a good distraction during the pandemic, too.

Nintendo adds more options for you and your friends to have fun in the game.
