Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV

You can find Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV at multiple retailers, including Walmart, Target, and GameStop, all priced at $79.99. This game is available in a single edition, making it a straightforward choice for buyers.

Yep, It Costs $79.99

Nintendo has adopted a sliding-scale pricing model for its Switch 2 games. While many first-party titles for the original Switch were priced at $59.99, with exceptions like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at $69.99, the ceiling for Switch 2 games has been set at $79.99. This pricing strategy is evident with games like Mario Kart World, also priced at $79.99, while other titles may be less.

Upgrade Pack Is Also Available Separately

This version of the game includes the original Switch game and the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack, enhancing the game with higher definition, faster frame rates, and the Jamboree TV expansion. If you already own the original game, you can purchase the upgrade pack separately from the Nintendo eShop or select retailers, saving you some money.

What Is Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV?

The standout feature of this edition is the Jamboree TV expansion, exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2. It introduces new modes and minigames, utilizing innovative input types such as audio recognition, mouse controls, and "more expressive rumble." Additionally, it integrates the Nintendo Switch 2 camera accessory (sold separately and available at Target), enabling unique minigames where players' faces are incorporated into the game. Up to four players can engage in fun activities like balancing digital goombas on their heads or hitting question blocks with Joy-Cons.

This expansion represents one of the most significant enhancements for a Switch 2 version of an original Switch game, making it particularly appealing for those who love hosting party game sessions.

Our Review of the Original Game

The original Super Mario Party Jamboree on the Switch was a standout title in the Mario Party series, earning a 9/10 in our review:

“Super Mario Party Jamboree is an amazing followup to Mario Party Superstars and easily one of the best games in the series. Not only does it faithfully return to the classic formula established in the Nintendo 64 entries, it confidently improves upon it with a fantastic set of boards that introduce unique and memorable mechanics. It’s also the most flexible Mario Party has ever been, with tons of ways to customize your game, including its brilliant new optional Pro Rules that reduce luck-based elements to a minimum and crank up the strategy for those who want it. The wonderful maps are supported by a great lineup of new and returning minigames and character-specific challenges that steal the show, even if I wish there were just a few more minigames in the rotation. The side offerings may not have much staying power, but when partying with friends and family locally or online, Super Mario Party Jamboree boldly completes the series’ redemption arc as its newest superstar.”
