Nintendo has announced that Nintendo 64 classic Ridge Racer 64 is now available to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers.

The Nintendo Software Technology-developed racing game was originally released for the Nintendo 64 way back in 2000, and has now hit the portable home console:

  • Ridge Racer (Nintendo 64): Race into action with Ridge Racer 64! Released in 2000 for the Nintendo 64 console, this arcade classic takes you on fast-paced races across three different environments for a total of nine courses! Dive right in with Quick Play to race three laps around the Revolution Novice course, or take on Grand Prix and choose any available track to test your skills. Other modes include Car Attack, which lets you compete for better cars, and Time Attack, where the only thing you’re racing against is your own best time! Challenge your friends in Multiplayer and put the pedal to the metal in three modes: Battle Mode, Stage Mode, and Team Mode.

    When the race is underway, don’t forget to drift! Skillful use of Acceleration Drifting and Brake Drifting will allow you to smoothly maneuver through tight curves on the racetrack and save precious seconds of time. A few extra seconds can be the difference between victory or defeat!
