Mario Smash Football Headed to Nintendo Switch 2

Nintendo’s dropping some exciting news: Mario Smash Football, the first game from the Mario Strikers series, is coming to the Nintendo Switch Classics – Nintendo GameCube app! If you’re a member of the Nintendo Switch Online+ Pack Expansion service, mark your calendars for July 3rd. Subscribers with a Nintendo Switch 2 will gain access to this classic GameCube game. In Mario Smash Football, you assemble a team of 5 athletes to go head-to-head against another squad. You can pick characters like Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Yoshi, Wario, Waluigi, Donkey Kong, Toad, Hammer Brother, Birdo, and Koopa Troopa. The action happens across 7 different stadiums. Get ready to use items to blast your opponents, and even unleash a Super Strike – a powerful move that counts as two goals! Joining the list of classic GameCube games playable on the Nintendo Switch 2 are F-Zero GX, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and SoulCalibur 2. This feature has turned out to be an unexpected high selling point for the new console.
