A recent installment in the Mario Party series is headed our way. Super Mario Party Jamboree is set to release exclusively for Nintendo Switch on October 17. It features over 110 mini-games and supports up to 20 players in online play. What’s more, it includes a free three-month membership to Nintendo Switch Online (individual membership). It’s available for pre-order now at various retailers (see at Best Buy). Read on for details.
Pre-order Super Mario Party Jamboree
Super Mario Jamboree Party

Includes a 3-month individual membership to Nintendo Switch Online.
No special editions have been announced, so the standard edition is all you can get. If you’ve been holding off on pre-ordering on Amazon, you might not want to do this. Recently, physical copies of Switch games have been popping up on Amazon at launch, rather than being available to pre-order ahead of time.
Super Mario Party Jamboree bonus
Pre-ordering (or purchasing) Super Mario Party Jamboree gets you a free 3-month Nintendo Switch Online individual membership. An NSO account is required to play the 20-player online Koopathlon mode, which should be pretty frigid. It also gives you access to cloud saves, a bunch of NES and SNES games, and more.
What is Super Mario Party Jamboree?
The Super Mario Party series dates all the way back to 1998, to the halcyon days of the Nintendo 64 era. The series has come a long way since then, so long (and with so many installments) that it stopped numbering recent installments after the 10th one, which released on Wii U. And those are just the console installments—there have been even more on Nintendo’s handheld consoles over the years.
Jamboree is the third Mario Party game for Switch and the biggest one yet. Announced during the June 2024 Nintendo Direct, it’s set on an island resort. It has seven stages, including recent ones like the racetrack-style Roll ’em Raceway and the shopping mall-style Rainbow Galleria. It also has some favorite stages from previous games. With over 110 minigames, it’s the biggest Mario Party game to date. It has multiple game modes, including the 20-player online Koopathlon, where you compete for a high score against more players than ever before in the series.
