Nintendo Switch Online Adds Two Classic Games Forsaken 64 & Magical Vacation

This service adds Forsaken 64 to the Nintendo 64 application – Nintendo Classics: Mature (Western region) as well as Magical Vacation to the Game Boy Advance application – Nintendo Classics in Japan.

Forsaken 64 is a first-person shooter game originally released in 1998 and developed by Probe/Iguana UK. The version added to the Switch Online service will be available through the N64 application labeled Mature (17+), so this game requires a Nintendo Switch Online account with the Expansion Pack to be playable.

Meanwhile, Japan receives Magical Vacation, a Game Boy Advance RPG from Brownie Brown (a developer later associated with several talents from the Mana series). Magical Vacation was originally released in 2001 and never received an official English release, although its sequel on Nintendo DS, Magical Starsign, was available in Western regions. This GBA version will be available for Switch Online members with the Expansion Pack in Japan starting September 4 as well.

For subscription context: the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo 64 collections on Switch require the Expansion Pack add-on on the Nintendo Switch Online subscription. This service differs from the standard package and adds access to classic system libraries such as N64 and GBA.
