And now, the wait is finally over for Pokémon fans, as Nintendo has announced the release of the highly anticipated Pokémon Stadium for Nintendo Switch. The game will be available as part of the Nintendo 64 catalog of the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack. This new game version will allow players to enjoy the same formula as the original N64 game with all the creatures of the first generation, mini-games, and the possibility of enjoying multiplayer matches.

Nintendo announced via Twitter that Pokémon Stadium will be available on April 12, 2023. Subscribers of the online premium pack will have exclusive access to the game. They can expect to face the 8 Gym Leaders of Kanto, face the Pokémon League or measure themselves against the most powerful rival of the whole game. The title also comes with the added benefit of online battles and mini-games, thanks to the online capabilities offered by the N64 catalog on Switch.

While this announcement has excited many Pokémon fans, there is a downside to the release of Pokémon Stadium for Nintendo Switch. The game will not be able to connect with Game Boy games available on Nintendo Switch
