You need to create a Japanese account on your system, which is relatively easy to do, then access the country's eShop, find the N64 app and download it. Ideally, Nintendo would have implemented rumble on Switch across all territories, there's no getting around the fact it's disappointing that no effort was made to implement the feature for global users.Īll is not lost if you want to do a workaround, though.

If you're using the North American or European app, however, you get the original version without rumble. So, as it goes, it was the most recent and best version of the game in Japan, and that's the one that's been emulated to Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack in the country. In Japan the version on the Expansion Pack app is the “Shindou Pak Taiou” edition, which was a re-release of the game only in Japan that added Rumble Pak support.

There are a small number of regional differences at the moment, and perhaps the most notable is that Super Mario 64 has rumble in Japan and not North America and Europe.īefore those pitchforks are sharpened, there's actually an interesting reason for this. Nintendo Switch Online's Expansion Pack is now live, adding various Nintendo 64 and SEGA Mega Drive / Genesis games into the mix.
