After months of speculation, Mario 3D All Stars has been announced. To celebrate the series’ 35th anniversary, Nintendo has revealed a slew of new events and games. Mario 64, Sunshine, Galaxy, and 3D World are coming to the Nintendo Switch. In addition Super Mario Bros. 35 was announced, which is a 35-player online game set in the original Super Mario Bros world.

In a new video presentation released today, Nintendo detailed several games, products and in-game events that are all arriving for the 35th anniversary of Super Mario Bros.This includes games new to the Nintendo Switch family of systems like Super Mario 3D All-Stars, a collection of three Super Mario games of the modern era: Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy; Super Mario Bros. 35, a 35-player online battle in the world of the original Super Mario Bros.; and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, an enhanced version of Super Mario 3D World which originally launched on Wii U.

The game will launch on September 18th. It will be sold physically in limited form, and on digital until March 2021, after which it’ll be pulled from sale.

Yeah the 3D games of Mario are here on Switch! For celebrate Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary (1985-2020)! It includes Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64), Super Mario Sunshine (Nintendo GameCube), Super Mario Galaxy 1 (Nintendo Wii) and Super Mario 3D World (Nintendo Wii U)! But it's a big pity that doesn't include the best Wii Mario 3D game, Super Mario Galaxy 2. I hope this soon adds this game :D Happy Birthday, Mario!

Terribly anti-consumer that Nintendo is making even the digital version a limited time release. Just greedy. I understand wanting a limited physical release for collectors, but limiting even the digital copy to a specific date is malicious and plays on FOMO.
Very very disappointed in Nintendo for this.

Now if you buy a Switch or don't have the money until ≥April 2021 you can't buy the game at all. Ridiculous. It's like they're asking for piracy.

If any other company did this, they'd be torn to shreds.
you can literally just buy the game on your phone right now, not having the money does sound like a personal problem

They are most likely gonna relist it seperately which is still kinda sketchy

Ok here goes what I think:

The good:

  • Can play nearly all the Mario games on the Switch now.
  • Every game seems to be ports instead of just tweaked emulation, maybe is just me but Sunshine and Galaxy look as they had their textures updated compared to the originals, also WS support for Sunshine could confirm that.
  • I have a guess for the control scheme for sunshine regarding F.L.U.D. : You will be able to use the GC adapter for the original controls, or the gyro/accel sensors will act as the level of presure with tilt controls.
The bad:

  • Overpriced as always (And in my country fucking LATAMEL raised the price to $1800 MXN [$83US dollars], fucking rats)
  • They kept 64 as it was, only enhancing the resolution, worse than the fanmade port IMO. My guess is that as how old minded purists they are, they wanted to keep it as close as the original (bad decission IMO, that aged really bad).
  • They didn't fix the original bugs 64 has, you can tell that by looking on the smoke FX, it renders in the wrong texture format that fans fixed some time ago already.
  • FUGGLY BOXART, that will ruin the collector's shelves so baddly.
  • L I M I T E D E D I T I O N™
  • No Mario Galaxy 2
  • If by chance you have a decent PC to run Dolphin with texture packs and enhanced resolution this is unnesessary lol.

I'm more interested in Mario Kart Live and the G&W thingy honestly, and 3D land is still a bit far from release, and many new things for that title are still yet to be announced.

Somebody will have to explain to me why Nintendo had the 300 IQ idea of making this a limited release available until March 31st. I know that this kind of nonsense works for Amiibo and the Nintendrones will jump on it anyway, but there's no reason why it should be artificially restricted like this. There are no licensing issues to speak of, they're all Nintendo first-party titles.

The worst part: This is probably their big holiday hit because I don't see another one. Unless they have more announcements to come but it's already September.
