Super Mario 3d All Stars coming this September 18th Until March 31st

Feels a bit lazy IMO and not including Galaxy 2 is mind boggling. Think I will skip this one.

Yes. Especially considering the love that went into All Stars on the SNES.

This is just a compilation of three games which should've been available on a Switch Virtual Console years ago. Feels like too little too late.
 
Day one purchase will be at Best Buy or Walmart on September 18th. My only issue is I wish Mario 64 at least looked better, I wish it could've gotten the OOT3DS treatment. Sunshine/galaxy looks good.

The Wii anniversary was even worse where they just re-released the original all-stars on a Wii Disc.

I have no idea why Nintendo is so lazy when it comes to this stuff. If they did proper remakes they would sell big time.
I also want to add that for Kirby's anniversary (also on Wii) they had NES, Gameboy, Super Nintendo, and N64 games as well as a new challenge mode with 3D graphics.

Yet for Mario, both now and 10 years ago, mario gets the garbage treatment.

Heck even the garbage All Stars collection had a book and soundtrack CD.

yes its almost like Kirby is a second tier character and Mario is the videogame equivalent of Mickey Mouse
 
I guess this means no N64 game on NSO this month. See, re-up time is coming and last year they introduced SNES games on NSO and I was expecting N64 games this Spetember but with Mario 64 being released like this, you won't be seeing it on NSO. Without Mario 64 they likely won't be bringing any N64 games to NSO.

Also curious, look how the logo is split into 4 sections with only 3 games? It's like there is a 4th game that will be a surprise.

Only for sale for 6 months, both physically and digitally. What a joke.
If there's one thing to call anti-consumer, it's this one.
 
Ok so after reading around:
Need joycon for galaxy (?)
720 docked for these games (?)
No 60 fps
60 dollars though?

Yeah, HARD pass will emulate activision did a better job with their platformers.

Super Mario Galaxy: Now With Mandatory Joy-Con Drift (even on the Switch Lite):



Was kind of hoping to be able to play it with the Pro controller. I hate the Joy-Cons.
"Gently shake a Joy-Con™ controller to activate Mario's Spin ability or pass a Joy-Con controller to a friend for some extra help in Co-Star Mode*."

This is what it refers to. The game will be playable on Switch Lite and also with a Pro Controller, but you need a Joy-Con for the optional coop mode where one player collects the star bits.
 
Not including, or even mentioning Galaxy 2 feels like a crime. It's far and away the best Mario game. If they had plans to release it standalone anytime in the next year, we would have heard it here.
 
Once pre-orders are up I'm jumping in. Just in case Nintendo decides to make a limited amount of copies. I don't want to go through the same crap I did when Super Mario All-Stars 25th Anniversary Edition for Wii came out. I had a hard time finding a copy when I didn't pre-order.

It's up on Bestbuy.com

I made sure to get mine in in case of fuckery.
 
Wow at the limited time release. That's one way to keep those prices from never going on sale.

this package just isn't for me. I have my Wii if I want to play all 3 of those game

the biggest negative is that this means we aren't probably getting n64 games on switch online. No way they would launch that without Mario 64

I've been harping on Nintendo's laziness with the Switch for some time now but even I didnt expect this. Just shameful.
 
jfc calm the fuck down. so people want to play games they like. here you psycho analyzing people like some kind of sociopath lol.

I do not retract my statement, your Honor! In all seriousness though, Nintendo fans are the most docile of them all: They would follow the firm to the depths of Hell if needs be. I do think taking a stance every once in a while would deter the firm from abusing some of its predatory tactics.

The one saving grace is that it looks like they did a port of the N64 Mario 64 and not the 3DS remake with the awful replacement models.

Why the fuck would they not include Galaxy 2???
 
Wait, so they didn't enhance SM64? Wow, that's just...wow...

I was actually looking forward to 3D All Star, but now my heart's broken. I am actually starting to think the Switch is my absolutely last Nintendo console I get. The output has been very disappointing lately and this felt like the last straw. Feels almost cathartic in a way.

it's a great deal for ppl that didn't play these 3D Mario games !

i have the original copies of the three games but i only finished Galaxy so am definitely getting this 😉
 
Activision of all companies does great Spyro and Crash remakes.

Nintendo does nothing to old ass Mario 64. xD

This so much! They should have at least made it like Wind Waker HD in how that had significant improvements across the board.

In the video it said "joycon compatible" which gave me hope. But that footnote saying required gives me pause. Fucking gross.

It is not required, unless you want to play Galaxy co-op.

The games are all compatible with Pro Controllers.
