8 Video Game Updates That Changed EVERYTHING

After three years, it finally happened. The most obvious content drop by Nintendo possibly in the history of their existence. Super Mario Party finally, FINALLY, has online functionality.

In a move that made the world over go "well why wasn't this included in the first place?!" you can now experience the highs and salty lows of playing Mario Party online with friends.

It's pretty clear why this update counts in the "changed everything" pile, as it literally transforms a party once locked to your own house into a global event that anyone can join in. It also ushers in something pretty substantial for the series going forward, as now the flood gates have opened it means all future titles have to have this feature or fans are going to be pissed!

What this means is a revolution for the type of gameplay we might see. A Battle Royale board game mode? More competitive modes to make up for the fact it's not just friends on couches anymore? The world is surely brighter with this update's release, and should the net code hold up to scrutiny, might well lead to the second renaissance of the series.
