REDMOND, Wash., June 5, 2020 – Who can forget the satisfaction of playing a match of chess with a friend and securing that coveted checkmate? Or the joy of finding pocket aces in your opening hand of Texas Hold’em? Get ready to create new memories with some beloved classics with the Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics game, which is now available for the Nintendo Switch family of systems.*

Whether you enjoy board games, card games, sports games or pub games, Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics includes an array of fun choices with a suite of features that makes them easy to pick up and play. It includes all the ingredients for a game night with friends and family, with multiplayer favorites like Dominoes, Four-in-a-Row and Slot Cars. Try out games from around the world, like Mancala and Shogi – or even a special Mario-themed version of Hanafuda. You can also unwind in single-player matches against CPUs, with tutorials, collectible trivia and historical background facts that bring these games to life in new ways.

“Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics opens up a new world of choices for Nintendo Switch players,” said Nick Chavez, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Bringing these classic games from around the world to Nintendo Switch gives players even more ways to connect online with friends and family.”

The extensive lineup of single-player and multiplayer options makes this collection a gateway to entertainment for everyone. There are games that can be enjoyed with other players on a single Nintendo Switch system in TV mode, some in Handheld mode (with touch-screen sharing) and some in Tabletop mode. Mosaic Mode lets you connect locally with other Nintendo Switch owners in creative configurations, such as Slot Cars, in which you can arrange up to four Nintendo Switch systems side-by-side on a surface to create a nearly endless amount of track configurations. Other games, such as Bowling and Darts, offer motion controls as well, delivering a wide range of fun ways to play.

Online play with a Nintendo Switch Online** membership allows you to compete with friends or random players around the world. Explore which games your friends or players around the world are enjoying by using the Guide Globe, an interactive globe interface with Game Guides. Learn fun facts about the international community of players, such as favorite foods, recommended games and their in-game achievements. Play to your heart’s content with fellow game enthusiasts across the world.

Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics is now available at a suggested retail price of $39.99. For more information about the game, visit https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/clubhouse-games-51-worldwide-classics-switch/.
