I thought you could still do it if you wanted? Am I misremembering 3D Allstars?

I think the equalizer comes down to the controller. I have a CRT and 1080 set, so I can play the original versions with the intended sensor bar aim, without feeling the res is bad or spending $70. But I probably won't just because this remake came out, maybe I will when the Galaxy movie hits.

I have never played galaxy 2...... So I might bite at some point.

I would go for it, incidentally it's the one I care more about the motion control, but I'm sure the gyro is good enough. Would suck in handheld mode though.

The Wi remote and nunchuck is just pure perfection for this game. So I am on the fence with this.
it's been that long since i played these games and if im honest i don't think i got round to completing them at the time. so looking forward to this now but since i have other games on the go this is my xmas to myself along with Metroid 4 .
we shall see if i cave and end up playing lol
i wouldn't mind a remake or sequel to the zombiU game i quite enjoyed that at the time, not that its anything related to mario

In Galaxy 1 the aiming is pretty much just collecting starbits, so whatever. But in 2, you also have to use it to join consecutive jumps with Yoshi's tongue. I did it with the first level he appears in an emulator once, it's passable, but of course nothing beats that perfect 1:1 wiimote aim

After watching the DF comparison vid, looks better in motion than a lot of the stills I've seen. I guess this isn't as much of a rush-job port as I expected.
Still wild to charge $70 for both games, but I'm such a Mario slut I'll probably buy it. I'm part of the problem.

Back from Gamestop to get my digital code for Galaxy 1&2 and walked out with a new Switch 2 and a zipper case to put it in.
I blame Mario for this. Spending money on my lunch break.
Also got a burrito for lunch. Mario will take care of that later on, bring the plunger.

I'm looking forward to playing through them again.
I saw a Youtube review talking about the price. 2 games for the price of 2.
Nintendo got me.

Just played for a couple of hours.
I still think Galaxy 2 is the best game ever made. It's obviously a fun discussion and there are so many other incredible games. But it just feels like the absolute zenith of Nintendo. A pure celebration of jumping and movement.
The soundtrack is also God tier.

Played galaxy 2 last night for a few hours when I downloaded it off the Japan Eshop, the motion controls with the switch 2 pro controller are perfect including the shake for spin, seems really accurate and not had to re enter the pointer at all. My physical at £41.99 came in the post today, keeping it sealed for now that have galaxy 2 downloaded and still got the last all stars pack, will look into whether galaxy 1 is worth breaking the seal later, came with a microfiber screen cleaning cloth with some character on it I'm not very familiar with
I think they could have done a proper celebration museum mode type thing or something, but probably saving that for the 50th

you are controlling the cursor with the gyro on either. so the only real difference is that you can waggle attack easier with the split joycon config, but that's also just a button now, so I don't think there's much of a difference functionally

Docked with Joy-Cons, so you get authentic controls and that sweet 4K. A few hours in, and Galaxy 1 is still incredibly strong.

Wii-era Nintendo was so good. Such a shame they have gone the full multimedia route and their games have become a lot less dependent on old-school game design and challenging the player. Although to be fair, Mario Galaxy was always way too easy, even to 100% it, but the ideas and level design were so unique.

Got the brand-new Switch 2 all setup transferring the Switch 1 data over. It's gonna take a while to download everything.
Found out the Pro controller for the Switch 1 also works on the Switch 2 for most features including motion control.
Does the Switch 2 pro controller have better motion control? I think it is only lacking the chat button, and you can't turn the Switch 2 on using the switch 1 pro controller.
