Cruis'n Creator Would "Love To See" The N64 Trilogy Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack

I was today years old when I learned Cruis'n Exotica was released on the N64 👁👄👁
I always thought that USA and World were the only ones ported to the N64!

It will probably happen, the N64 and the Sega genesis library is going to keep growing, pretty soon we are going to have hundreds of games for only 5 bucks, I will take that over the virtual console any day of the week, paying 7 to 10 dollars for each game is a waste when I can only get a full library of games for only 5 bucks, out of the 50 dollars you pay for the expansion pass. 25 for the animal crossing dlc and 20 for the regular online, leaves 5 bucks for the N64 and genesis games. And more are going to keep coming, thank you nintendo for such a great deal!

Saying you would love to see it on Switch Online is a sure fire way to ensure that it never shows up on Switch Online.

Fun but awful, just like the best N64 games 😄

Lol, they wont get my money for this "service"
Sega already offered their games for free, but hey on nintendo switch you have to subscribe 😂
This should have been in the standard sub.

Those would be great on the go.

It will probably happen.
Just be prepared to wait until 2032.

Drip..........drip

I hope we see the arcade series ported. But if I'm honest, I always found Cruisin' on N64 to be a bit naff. That said, the more the merrier. Bring em over!

I would happily buy a remastered trilogy if they're based off the arcade games. I would rather have them forever, and not a rented port.

Yeah I'd rather have an HD collection than them being added to the rental service.

Never played Exotica but had World and USA and they were big dumb fun. Been playing Blast with my son - he's only 3 but brilliantly there's an "auto-accelerate" mode so he can feel like he's racing along!

@mariopartyfan68 Not a bad price at all, if you play Animal Crossing that is. For people who don't the Expansion upgrade is too expensive. A collection with the three Cruisn' games sounds better to me, maybe the arcade and N64 versions together?

HD trilogy remaster with 60fps gameplay? yes. Porting to Switch Online with half-assed emulation settings, glitchy sound and stuttering? no.

@The-Chosen-one Lol, they wont get my money for this "service" Sega already offered their games for free, but hey on nintendo switch you have to subscribe😂

Are you talking about the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis Collection? Funny I only ever heard terrible things about that until the Mega Drive/Genesis NSO service came out. 🙄 That is has horrible button input lag, dead online play and is a chore to navigate/change games.

That would be a pretty awesome addition to the service, they should definitely do that.

I was actually surprised the classics aren't there already, it would have been a great way to advertise the new game.

@Clyde_Radcliffe
The sega collection does have Dynamite Headdy and Gunstar Heroes though. Plus you own them and not renting them.

@mariopartyfan68

ive seen you make this comment over and over, and it still doesn't make sense to anyone but you. i dont know what your angle is, but

"pretty soon we are going to have hundreds of games for only 5 bucks"

-the games come out a couple every few months at best. ot would take years to get to hundreds and it simply will not happen. and, its not for 5 bucks, its a subscription with recurring payments.

"25 for the animal crossing dlc and 20 for the regular online, leaves 5 bucks for the N64 and genesis games."

-I'm not interested in animal crossing, so that component of the "deal" has NO value whatsoever for me. and your math makes no sense anyway.

this has been pointed out numerous times by other users, so i know you already know this.

is solicitation allowed on this website? this person is is here to propagandize at best, troll at worst. i see from their history they have been moderated and even banned multiple times in the last few days. please consider futher action. thank you.

@mariopartyfan68 I have a lot of my favorite N64 games on Wii U. I bought the Animal Crossing DLC because I didn't want to rent it. I don't play games online and I played all the NES and SNES games that I wanted to beat. So it isn't $5 for me. It's still $50. So I'll wait till there is a larger selection before I even consider paying for it.

"He mentioned how he had been "tossing around some ideas" to remaster the classic arcade Cruis'n trilogy - with full HD and a solid 60Hz frame rate".

Honestly, I prefer this than the N64 roms on Nintendo Online's expansion. Similarly, I prefer Banjo-Kazooie in 4K on Xbox as a one-time purchase on its own or as part of Rare Replay.

CrusinUSA was the "exclusive" Wii Virtual Console title, the one Japan didn't get.

It was also censored. For violence? No, for fake boobies.

I will NEVER waste money on that so-called "Expansion pack". Not only is the asking price ridiculous at more than the base subscription itself, but the emulation is substandard and, predictably, it's apparently getting the same spotty games support Nintendo had shown for the NES and SNES catalogs. It ranks right up there with mobile games as far as stuff I have ZERO interest in ever supporting, primarily because they are both prime examples of modern corporate greed and absurd business models. Make games available for actual purchase or don't bother. PERIOD.

Weren’t they some of the worst-reviewed games on the system? Or am I having a brain fart again?

I would prefer the arcade trilogy HD collection. Bring us the definitive way to play these games for years to come, don't just throw them onto the N64 app please.

@vyseofhr fart away as you are correct, however, remastered etc, these will hopefully turn out better!! Fingers crossed as Cruisin Blast looks/plays well.

I wouldn’t mind them being added, although in terms of a trilogy I’d like to see added…Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1/2/3 and Mortal Kombat Trilogy (and 4, since it’s not playable on any modern hardware) would be pretty cool!!! : D

Or, you know, port it as a collection with just updated textures.

I'm down for it, c'mon widdit! It would give me more reason to get the EP. On a side note, Cruisin' Blast is a whopping 50% in the NA eShop right now. I'm gonna have to snag that.

The endless crying about the service above is predictable as always.
Anyways, I would love to see them. Exotica is my fav out of the 3!

"He's right, you know"

Give me all three arcade classics remastered on a cart and take my money. Nintendo Switch Online.
Mmmm no thanks.

No!!!! We want the hard copy of the cruisin trilogy for the switch!! Not that online B.S.

I'd love it for Monster Truck Madness 64 to get re-released on the online app. I played it alot as a kid.
I don't think alot of people would buy it, but if made available on the app, people would play it.

Physical compilation or bust. Put all three games on a single cartridge and price it around the same as Cruis'n Blast...couldn't be that hard. Not paying for games I can't even keep on my console if I decide I don't want to keep paying for a trash online service.

@Paraka hell even asking for updated textures is probably asking too much of these devs and Nintendo in 2021

I would much rather see an arcade trilogy like the blast game. I’m not supporting the expansion subscription.

Creator of game X, would you like it to be rereleased, you don't have to do anything and might lead to sales for your new game X+? Creator of game X: Sure!

@RetroOutcast - Then resolution. I don't care, as long as it played the way it used to if they plan on ports.

I'd rather just have the remaster of the arcade versions.

I’d like to see both a physical and online release.
