The Nintendo Switch Online library doesn't get as much attention as PlayStation Plus or Game Pass, but it also deserves it because sometimes really interesting projects appear there. One of these projects is Ridge Racer 64.

Here's What We Know
Ridge Racer 64 was the first game in the series to be released on any console other than PlayStation in 2000. In 2004, the game received a remake for Nintendo DS, but it was received much worse. The original still has its fans, who will be happy to know that it is now in the Switch Online + Expansion Pack catalogue.
Subscription holders can download the game at no extra cost. The game has different game modes, 25 cars, and for the first time in the series, split-screen multiplayer for four players.
