The first 'Nintendo Switch 2 Edition' game has officially been revealed: Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV (what a mouthful, eh?).
This upcoming edition makes the most of the Switch 2's new hardware, with voice recognition, camera inputs and improved rumble implemented into the minigames.
A new 'Mario Mode' is all about playing with the camera, watching your pals gurn on screen just like we used to in Nintendo Land. 'Bowser Live' makes the most of the camera even more, with Xbox Kinect-style full-body challenges, while 'Carnival Coaster' will put your mouse controls to the test. Intriguing, no?
This is but one of many Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games coming to the console, with the line-up also including BOTW, TOTK, Metroid Prime 4, Pokémon Legends: Z-A and more.
What do you make of the new and improved Jamboree? Take the party to the comments and let us know.

Gotta say, I’m not happy about a bunch of Switch games I already have being “launch” titles with upgrades I have to buy… at least I don’t have to buy the entire game again, I guess, but it’s pretty underwhelming
@Waluigi451 it's giving wii u-era "what is compelling me to buy this, really"
@somebread completely agree lol
Very happy to see this!! Mario Party Jamboree is WAY too good to be forgotten when people move over to Switch 2. I have zero objections to upgrading for this precious game...looks incredible!!!!
Honestly when they announced this I was scared that I had to buy a new version of the game, and then they revealed that you can purchase an upgrade for this I was immediately relieved.
I bought this game a few months ago and now I feel like a total chump.
@Aurumonado : Bruh, I bought this last week! I feel like a chump! And I haven't even booted up the game yet! 😅
Oh, well. Double-dip it is, then.
@Waluigi451
This was my reason for being upset with how the OG switch handled things.
Like, I bought all this stuff, and you want me to buy it again?
The excuse back then was that not many ppl had a Wii U, thus these games could get better light. That doesn't fly now.
Jamboree TV is inspired by the mic minigames from Mario Party 6 and 7. Those were fun just for how broken they were!
I'm one of those early adopters as well but hopefully the upgrade won't cost too much.
One of the best Switch 2 editions considering how much it adds, getting this upgrade for sure as soon as I can!
@Dev-N
imagine if the choicest voice returns!
am also hoping the "upgrade" fee for these things wont end up being too much and will be closer to just buying DLC for a game.
@Toads-Friend I don't know man, I love how good the game is, but an expensive upgrade (especially if you're buying the game for the 1st time), and STILL also needed to buy an almost 60 dollar Webcam on top of it to get the most out of some kinda lack luster new mini games doesn't seem as compelling as I'd like it to be
Hopefully it’ll add some more boards and games at least.
@Waluigi451 Relax, it's just DLC.
@TYRANACLES If you watch the trailer, you will see exactly what it adds.
@Edwirichuu agreed. The camera is being overlooked because I really don’t think most people will get much utility out of it. This isn’t the DSi or 3DS where the camera is built in. I really don’t I’d personally use a camera much to justify buying one solely for a Mario Party upgrade.
Free updates will also be provided for select Switch 1 games. These can improve performance or add support for features like GameShare. And the games everyone was hoping would receive these enhancements are on the list.
Jamboree is a game I didn't expect to get a Switch 2 Edition. Guess I'm rebuying it. Mario Party is so fun with friends.
Glad we waited to get this.
