Topic: Super Mario 3D All-Stars

@BabyYoshi12 I started with 64 (gonna play them in chronological order). And...it's Super Mario 64. Wether you like 64 or not will depend on a lot, but I will say I think this is the best way to play this game (outside of maybe original hardware on a tube tv. In 1996). It is distinctly the original game, but it's a bit more crisp. The controls are mapped to the pro controller well, although the camera is still a bit of an ass. It may just be me, but I think the controls are a bit tighter. I pulled off the flight cap secret star on my 3rd try. That has never happened before, probably for anyone.

For what it's worth, I think Super Mario 64 is the worst 3d Mario game. It's tough to say if someone who's never played it would like it. But it's absolutely something you have to try. There's still magic there, it's just harder to appreciate when the series has grown so much since then.

Now if you'll excuse me ladies and gentleman, I've only got 18 stars - I still have a long way to go.

@Losermagnet I’d have to agree on 64. It was revolutionary and still has its moments, but it’s still one of the weaker titles compared to the newer ones.

Yeah, that's why I gave him highest marks in the survey. The issue is, why would he 'have to day's something that is 12 hrs different than Nintendo's own site?

HELLLO LOVELY PEEEEEE-POL

Today is the day! Two and a half hours until I pick it up!!

Thut's more thun enooof wafflin, let's jooomp straigh' into it....

Well, if you get it digitally, you can tell us when it is actually playable....

I will play Super Mario Sunshine on my Switch Lite with the GameCube indigo game box beside me.

Did amazon ship anybody's orders yet?

@Snatcher I believe mine has, considering that I have an Amazon package coming tomorrow

I can still try to cancel mine without it giving any warnings, so they haven't done anything yet.

@PikaPhantom I have not looked yet but last time I did it said it coming tomorrow.

@Snatcher mine did

@NintendoByNature I should go check mine.

Funny how opinions can differ. After watching the Digital Foundry review, here I was thinking that all those people accusing Nintendo of simply doing a lazy port/emulation can go stuff it, because Nintendo obviously put a lot of work into improving the visuals and performance while keeping the central aesthetic of each game intact.

Sorry, not interested in bridges, just quality Nintendo ports.

@Mountain_Man I would say the did everything I wanted. Only things that would’ve made it better are Galaxy 2 and if 64 and Sunshine were 60FPS

Yes. That is the absolute minimum I expected from a company as big as Nintendo. Super Mario Sunshine in particular would have benefited a lot because the game started as a 60fps project and it's a game with snappy controls and moves. Who can justify the omission of Super Mario Galaxy 2 (as an unlockable, if they don't want to put it on the cover) when Super Mario Galaxy is running on an emulator?

@BlueOcean I went into it expecting no galaxy 2 cause it would be a nightmare to control Yoshi with touch controls, and like I said I was disappointed in sunshine not being 60 FPS. But I think if they redid the graphics on these games, they could’ve easily ruined them. I also wasn’t expecting the music to be on there, which was a really nice extra.

@Blooper987 The soundtracks are a nice extra. I think that they could have done something with Yoshi's tongue like a targeting system a la Sonic.

@MarioLover92 I'm starting to get worried amazon hasn't shipped my order yet, but its only 2.00 am. right now so it should ship between tomorrow or 8 pm to 20 am. what about you has yours shipped yet if so I think i'm screwed I cant what anymore.
