Switch in Japan Gets JRPG GBA Magical Vacation

Nintendo announced two new Nintendo Switch Online classic game library additions last night, with Japan getting the Brownie Brown JRPG Magical Vacation and other regions getting the FPS Forsaken 64. Both games will debut on September 4, 2025, and in each case Switch and Switch 2 owners will need the more expensive Expansion Pack tier of the subscription service to access and play both of them.

Magical Vacation is the first in a series of two JRPG games from a developer known for its work on Mana games and, as such, the GBA game features some familiar character designs and involves similar sorts of themes involving elemental spirits. Our avatar is at Will-o'-Wisp academy due to being able to see Spirits. While on a school trip, your classmates disappear, and it is up to you to find everyone again and discover what’s going on. While it only appeared in Japan, the sequel Magical Starsign did appear on the DS worldwide.

Here’s the trailer for it that primarily focused on the battle system.

Meanwhile, Forsaken 64 is the N64 version of the Acclaim FPS. It isn’t exactly a straightforward port of the original game, as while it plays the same way and still has both single and multiplayer options, there are other limitations. If you go through it on your own, you try to get what’s loot is left on a destroyed Earth while defeating others. If you play with others or against the computer, up to four people can be present. 

Here’s the trailer for that, which shows off both the single player campaign and four-player multiplayer.

Magical Vacation will come to the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack GBA game library for the Switch and Switch 2 in Japan on September 4, 2025, and other regions will get Forsaken 64 on that same day.
