Topic: Super Mario 3D All-Stars

@Octane I've defeated that boss with all 4 tentacles. As soon as he struck his tentacles I went to his face and started pulling and immediately released. I think it was a glitch but it worked. It was funny to see all 4 arms just wiggling as he fell in the water.

@Apportal It's no glitch. You don't have to pull its tentacles. It just makes it easier if you do.

I saw someone suggesting that the reason they left Galaxy 2 out of the collection was because they wanted to leave open the idea of making a "3D All Starts 2" if this one sold well.

It would include Mario 64 DS, 3D Land and Galaxy 2.

I dunno if they'd do that. 64 DS is probably too close to the original 64 to be considered a separate game. But I'd probably still buy that if they made it to be honest.

@Dezzy I don’t think that’s true. Not only would it look unprofessional, I also don’t like those 3 games all that much.

@Dezzy I think it's because they didn't want to have two Galaxy games on it. 50% of the compilation would be Galaxy. 64, Sunshine and Galaxy are the first 3D entries on their respective console, so it makes sense. Galaxy 2 always felt like a level pack to be honest.

Not saying they shouldn't have done it, but I don't think it's because they want to sell a second collection.

@StuTwo I didn't say walking simulators but half walking simulators, the worlds and parts that are empty and boring. Of course, I respect that you don't agree with me about that, I totally agree with you about Super Mario 64 and Sunshine 😉.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 should have been included at least as an unlockable if it wasn't supposed to appear on the cover. It doesn't matter if it's original or not, it's unacceptable to not include it when the games are running on emulators. It's one of the 3D stars, period. 3D Land? Well, it's a handheld game that uses stereoscopic 3D so I understand its omission. I know that Nintendo wants to sell Super Mario Galaxy 2 eventually.

@BlueOcean We'll have to wait for someone to 100% all games and get Galaxy 2 unlocked as a completion award. That'll be 10x better than that stupid postcard crap from Sunshine.

For Mario Galaxy 2, it will probably be released sometime in the future on the Switch. Since the data miners uncovered the N64, GC and Wii emulator, it probably means we will get these games as separate downloads.

I was hoping for that! 😜 Sweetest surprise ever but do you think that nobody has completed the games already? I mean, some people play video games almost 24/7 and sleep 4 hours.

Then it should be added to SMG as in Yoshi+Poochy, Mario+Bowser... No big deal. Wait, it's just an emulator port, then include it as unlockable. No excuses.

Galaxy 2 and 3D World are the best 2 expansion packs ever made.

I'm totally fine if the next 3D Mario game is Odyssey 2, which is just a level expansion pack as well!

@BlueOcean I know 100% that people have beaten all 3 of these games, but fully completing them is a different story. For Galaxy alone you have to play the whole thing over again.

So, I bit the bullet and tackled the first near impossible task of Sunshine's pachinko machine level. I had about 30 lives built up and when I finished I had 9. 😅 I don't quite have the courage for the poison river yet. I haven't 100% completed Sunshine in at least 15 years. I'll do it once with this release and then forget those two levels exist.

@Apportal Yep and that's what I mean by completing them 😜.

Maybe it's my OCD but seeing a save file in alot of games that is anything less than 100% completion just bothers me. Now in huge open world games I'll sometimes let it slide but with these i just can't.

@Zeldafan79 I can't have a Super Mario save file under 100%. Only a few purple coins left in Super Mario Odyssey but that can wait.

I used to beat Super Mario 64 with 120 stars four times and then erase the save files when I needed four more 😅.

@BlueOcean
Oddly enough my original Mario 64 cart still has my first ever save file on it. I thought those back up batteries died eventually but damn them are some good ones!

@Dezzy I'd love a new game TBH, but Nintendo has never made two 3D Mario games for 1 system, so it's probably going to be a sequel all things considered.

Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 are two separate 3D Mario games for Wii.

@Zeldafan79 I am not a completionist but for some reason for me 3d Mario's are allways about getting all the stars (or equivalent) and not about credits
