Get ready for an exciting addition to your gaming collection! The highly anticipated Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV is set to launch exclusively for the Nintendo Switch 2 on July 24. This edition includes everything from the original party game for Nintendo Switch, enhanced with the new Jamboree TV expansion, which transforms your gaming experience into a lively game show hosted by Toad. Preorders are now open, so you can secure your copy at Walmart.
You can find this game at various retailers for $79.99, including Walmart, Target, and GameStop. Whether you're a new buyer or already own the original, this edition is available in a single format, making it a straightforward purchase.
Nintendo has adopted a sliding-scale pricing model for Switch 2 games. While most first-party games for the original Switch were priced at $59.99 (with exceptions like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at $69.99), the Switch 2 sees a price increase to $79.99 for top-tier titles like Super Mario Party Jamboree and Mario Kart World. Other games may be priced at $69.99 or less.
This edition includes the original Switch game along with the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack. The upgrade pack enhances the game to higher definition and faster frame rates, and includes the Jamboree TV expansion. If you already own the original, you can purchase the upgrade pack separately on the Nintendo eShop or at select retailers as a printed download code, allowing you to save on the cost.
The highlight of this edition is the Jamboree TV expansion, exclusive to the Switch 2. It introduces new modes and minigames that utilize innovative input types unique to the Switch 2, including audio recognition, mouse controls, and enhanced rumble. The expansion also integrates the Nintendo Switch 2 camera accessory (sold separately, available at Target), allowing for minigames where players' faces are incorporated into the game. Up to four players can participate using one camera, engaging in fun activities like balancing digital goombas on their heads or hitting question blocks with Joy-Cons.
This expansion represents a significant enhancement over the original game, making it an excellent choice for social gatherings and party game enthusiasts.
The original Super Mario Party Jamboree on the Switch was a standout title, earning a 9/10 in our review. It was praised for its faithful return to the classic Mario Party formula while introducing fresh mechanics and customizable gameplay options, including the innovative Pro Rules that minimize luck and emphasize strategy. The game's engaging boards, diverse minigames, and character-specific challenges were highlights, making it a beloved addition to the series.
