Yep, It Costs $79.99
Nintendo has introduced a sliding-scale pricing model for Switch 2 games. While most original Switch games were priced at $59.99 (except for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at $69.99), the ceiling for Switch 2 games has been raised to $79.99. This pricing applies to Super Mario Party Jamboree as well as Mario Kart World, though other games might be priced at $69.99 or lower.
Upgrade Pack Is Also Available Separately
This edition includes the original Switch game along with the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack. The upgrade enhances the game with higher definition visuals, faster frame rates, and the new Jamboree TV expansion content. If you already own the original game, you can buy the upgrade pack separately on the Nintendo eShop or at select retailers as a printed download code, allowing you to save some money.
What Is Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV?
The highlight of this edition is the Switch 2-exclusive Jamboree TV expansion, introducing new modes and minigames that leverage Switch 2's advanced features. These include audio recognition, mouse controls, and "more expressive rumble." The expansion also integrates the Nintendo Switch 2 camera accessory (sold separately, available at Target), which lets up to four players insert their faces into the game. You can enjoy activities like balancing digital Goombas on your head or hitting question blocks with your Joy-Con, making for a highly interactive and engaging party experience.
This expansion marks one of the most significant updates to a Switch 2 version of an original Switch game, perfect for those who love hosting game nights with friends and family.
Our Review of the Original Game
The original Super Mario Party Jamboree on Switch received high praise, earning a 9/10 in our review. We described it as "an amazing followup to Mario Party Superstars and easily one of the best games in the series." It brings back the classic formula from the Nintendo 64 era and enhances it with unique, memorable mechanics across its boards. The game offers flexibility with customizable options and introduces Pro Rules to minimize luck and emphasize strategy. While the side offerings may not have long-term appeal, the core party experience is stellar, making Super Mario Party Jamboree a standout in the series.
