One of 2000's most popular N64 games is now free for some Nintendo Switch Online subscribers.
Many of the games above were also some of the most popular games, but there were also some very popular games that weren't as great, such as Mario Party 3, which is a decent game, but no Game of the Year contender. That said, it was played and loved by many, and now Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack owners can play the N64 classic for free on Nintendo Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED.
As for the game itself, Mario Party 3 is considered a 2001 game by some as it didn't come west until 2001, however, it debuted in 2000 via the Japanese market. Whatever the case, all of the same above still applies, but in 2001, if you don't consider it a 2000 game. It was developed by Hudson Soft and published by Nintendo to a 74 on Metacritic and big sales.
"Once every 1,000 years, the Millennium Star is born and grants Superstar status to whoever possesses it. But who is worthy enough to have it? Maybe a game of Mario Party can sort this out," reads an official blurb about the game."Try mastering over 70 mini-games as you enjoy four-player Battle Royale maps, one-on-one Duel maps, and a single-player Story Mode."
