Smash 64 Leak? Fans Spot Classic Game in New NSO Video

Looks like Nintendo may have accidentally spilled the beans—Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 64 might finally be coming to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.

Fans spotted a blurred glimpse of the iconic Smash 64 box art during a recent official Nintendo video titled “Classic Features”—and it’s got the internet buzzing. The footage, which was uploaded in June, has a few N64 game covers visible under a retro CRT filter… but eagle-eyed viewers recognized the yellow explosion and characters from the original Smash Bros..

This wasn’t an official announcement, but let’s be real: Nintendo has used similar “oops” moments in the past to tease upcoming NSO additions. And given how heavily fans have been asking for Smash 64, this one feels deliberate—or at least, conveniently timed.

Also spotted in the background? Possible teases of Donkey Kong 64, Glover, and Forsaken 64. 

If confirmed, Super Smash Bros. 64 would join the ever-growing N64 library on NSO Expansion Pack, which already features titles like Mario Kart 64, GoldenEye 007, and F-Zero X. And honestly, it’s one of the last major first-party classics missing from the collection.
