Round Up: More Screenshots And Footage Of Super Mario 3D All-Stars

Oh look he’s running and using fludd at the same time. Who would have thunk the makers of the game would have found away around Switch not having analog triggers?

@LUIGITORNADO it will never be the same.

Galaxy in HD almost looks better than Odyssey!

Too bad they didn't redo the atrocious voice acting in Sunshine.

All the games look great! I for one am glad Mario 64 looks like Mario 64 in all it's charming polygonal glory (albeit sharper and higher definition) 👍 It would be boring if all 3 games looked like Mario Galaxy instead of representing 3 different eras of Mario which is far more fitting and appropriate for a nostalgic celebration.

Remakes generally leave me cold and feel somehow fake... especially the modern graphics in Ultra Street Fighter 2 - yuck.

Man that mario galaxy, still looks beautifull!

Even without a big facelift, these games are looking really nice

Super Mario 64 will be the easiest transition.
I'm still wondering how natural will feel the Sunshine and Galaxy controls. And I didn't play neither of those (I never had a Game Cube nor a Wii). So this game excites me beyond words.

Mario Sunshine looks really good in HD, makes me regret a bit that I just finished today a playthrough of the original.

I know, terrible timing, but I kept repeting myself "Just another shine then I'll stop and play it in HD later" and before I knew it I was defeating Bowser and saving the island in 480p XD

@BakaKnight sunshine is just that good! Idk why people hate it 😭

@LUIGITORNADO You can already run and shoot FLUDD in the original version

It's weird because Sunshine and Galaxy just look like how I remember them as a kid...but looking back they are definitely sharper than before.
I guess a child's eyes can fill in the gaps when the resolution was so low, but now this collection can do the work for me. Bring on the HD!

Why is there like squiggly things instead of letters?

I'm excited to play these games in a few days as i never played mario sunshine or mario galaxy with the only one i owned briefly was mario 64 before selling my console and games to gamestop for next to nothing when i was a teenager. So looking forward to completeing Mario 64 this time around.

@JMR_Alden They know, they’re referring to the fact that the Switch doesn’t have analog triggers that allow for half and full presses, which was how you controlled mobile or stationary FLUDD use in the original version.

has anything been confirmed with these games as to any changes made to improve them?Like the camera in 64 for example?

@Laraishond galaxy may look fantastic but it always has in my opinion. Sunshine looks like a different game it just looks so good!

@Agriculture because someone is going around doing graffiti, I won't tell you who it's a spoiler

Does anyone know if you can change how the camera works in Sunshine?

I dont know. I have still that feeling that Nintendo could have achieved more with this compilation.

I’m pretty positive I saw a few hitches and frame rate pacing issues. It’d be pretty upsetting if these ports don’t run smoothly.

@Clyde_Radcliffe I'm with you on that, I think games from that era have a certain charm and Mario 64 still looks really nice anyway. I'm really excited to play all 3 of these games again

@Arkay I was wondering that, there’s a lot of options in the screenshots and I’m hoping we can mute voices. There’s only so much I can take, it was a real turn off while playing Odyssey. I actually got rid of it because of the voices/constant interruptions from the stupid hat.

@Snakesglowcaps Yeah, it reminds me of in Mario 64, Dire Dire Docks. Super laggy on the old hardware. I hope they fix that stuff! This is an expensive purchase!

Friday, be here!

The lighting looks fantastic in Galaxy, I can’t remember it looking that good on Wii.

Are these all on a single cartridge?

@Erviper If there is someone hating Sunshine I could totally understand why XD

I know I said I couldn't stop play it, but while it's a very fun game, it's also a super frustrating one.
Honestly a shame that the collection won't offer any change to the gameplay cause I think Sunshine would really benefit a lot from some small key changes here and there, way more then 64 or Galaxy.

@Markiemania95 I got that, but how is Mario being able to run whilst spraying Fludd a workaround? I won't help in say, the casino minigame where you need to press the trigger in at multiple different levels to flip the panels aggressively and gently

I'm totally playing Pianta Village first, before even meeting Shadow Mario.

@JMR_Alden You can still enter first-person mode. That will help with that portion.

That beautiful boxed mario64. Such an effort, amazing!

@Hordak Yes they are.

@JMR_Alden It isn’t, LUIGITORNADO just stated that Nintendo managed to find a way around making Mario do that without the use of analog triggers. It was never said that the feature itself was a workaround. Have you taken it to mean that spraying while moving is a workaround for stationary use? Because I don’t think that’s what was implied, and I’m sure that isn’t the case anyway.

@NerdyBoutKirby It will but even in the over the shoulder view, it's gonna be tricky without the correct triggers

@Markiemania95 I guess so, as why else would he say "Who would have thunk the makers of the game would have found away around Switch not having analog triggers?" directly after mentioning that Mario can run and use Fludd at the same time?

If he wasn't referring to that, then what is the "way around" he is talking about?

@LUIGITORNADO well keep in mind one major difference, and I can guarantee this is how it works. The Switch has two triggers on each side compared to the Gamecube which had one On each side. One could be for spray in place and the other for spray and move.

@jobvd,

Now come on fellas, galaxy looks great, but better than odyssey, not sure I agree with you there.

These are straight ports. All hype no extra bite. My Wii has all these. Woulda been cool if they remade them instead like Mario 64 ds. Nowwww that was a remade port/sequel worth every penny. Could say it made the game better but was alot of fun and provided a fresh spin on the game In several aspects.

@Travisemo007 Mario 64 ds is an absolute disgrace to 3d mario games.

It’s disgusting to see how many Nintendo fans realize that everything about this collection is anti consumer but are still throwing money at this madness. Are your principles really worth so little???

@jobvd omg but itssss sooooooo good I Loved it. If anything it's the best remake effort they've made with Mario lol. It was weird at first but different can be good. And 4 me it was. Def enjoyed it alot and discovering the new twists.

Can't wait to play through galaxy again, easily my favourite 3d Mario game.

I'm curious to see how they've dealt with not having analogue triggers for Sunshine, the video still references the X button from the GameCube controller.
Also want to know how well pointer controls work for Galaxy, it's all about controls for me (although those graphics do look rather nice).

Can’t wait to throw baby penguin off the mountain Again In better resolution

@personauser93,

I think you are overlooking h fact most sales for these games will be from people who have never played the original games, these ports will be awesome value to them, on the other had I think they are a pretty good deal too.

@Hordak Why wouldn’t they be?

@personauser93 “DISGUSTING, PEOPLE SUPPORT VIDYA GAME?! 😤”

Im getting this collection for Mario Sunshine, but it will also be the first time i play mario 64

@JMR_Alden I don't know how else to explain this lol, but I think you read the comment all wrong. They weren't referring to using FLUDD while moving as a workaround for using FLUDD while stationary. They were referring to how Nintendo has managed to work around the Switch's controllers not having analog triggers, which only allow full presses, by allowing Mario to run while spraying without the ability to do a half-press, like you could on a GameCube controller. That's why your initial reply of "You can already run and shoot FLUDD in the original version" is irrelevant in the context, because they already know that. As for what that workaround is, I think Link3015 is correct.

tl;dr - you're thinking in terms of the game's mechanics, as opposed to the mechanics of the controller itself, which is what LUIGITORNADO was alluding to. It seems you also think that they were referring to mobile FLUDD use being a workaround for stationary FLUDD use, when what they were actually alluding to is the capability to do the former when the original method of performing this is no longer available.

@Markiemania95 can you use a Game-Cube controller with this bundle? It will be quite cool if you can.

@Pj1 It's likely possible to, but apparently Nintendo have confirmed that it's 'not compatible' - probably just meaning that it hasn't been specifically optimised for the game(s), like it was for Smash Ultimate.

@BakaKnight this! I love mario Sunshine but some of its flaws are game changing! The positives of the game are really high but all the annoying missions kinda ruin it for me. Those pachinko machines, Carona mountain, leaf surfing, watermelon festival can all just leave. I was hoping they would fix that!

I always get chills when I hear Rosalina say "Go Mario!" when he's running across the bridge to the final level in Galaxy.

@Erviper The camera controls suck TBH

ah if only 3D All Stars looked like this
https://abload.de/img/3dallstars205kyy.png

@personauser93 I'll spend my money as I choose.

@Clyde_Radcliffe In this case, I agree. Many n64 games have not aged well at all. Mario 64 still shows its age with all those polygons, but its simplistic textures and bright colours holds up pretty good and I don't think I'd like it any other way

@Erviper i at the time disliked sunshine mainly because i remember having camera issues.. it felt broken. Again thats from memory whether they have fixed that or it wasnt as bad as i remember i shall soon see

Wish sunshine and 64 got remade honestly....

@JMR_Alden as in you pull the trigger all the way down to spray standing still and partially pulled to run and spray. This original mechanic will not work natively on the switch. By seeing mario doing both actions in the screen shots shows they have found a work around for the analogue triggers that the switch does not have.

@personauser93 they make what I want, I buy it. Simple.

I’ll definitely be getting this day 1. Excited to re play these

Despite the upscaling to HD quality, I'm sorry to say, but 64's graphics have not aged well. Nintendo really should have updated the graphics to be more in line with Mario's renders from Sunshine, Galaxy, or Odyssey, kind of like what some fans do with those 4K tech demos of 64.

But that's just my opinion, of course.

@Laraishond It is because Galaxy tries to have a more cinematic and kinda realistic feel, though not better than Odyssey in my opinion, yes, it does look very good even today.

@personauser93 get a life, stop bossing people about what they can and can’t buy. Also if you’re talking about it being a limited time release then you’re missing the point, it’s celebration, celebrations last for a limited time which means that certain products related to said celebration will also be limited, which is why this game is limited. If you’re talking about It being 60 dollars then you do need to remember that these are three full games that all hold up really well, hell some of them are even more expensive to buy on their own. Not everything that you don’t like is anti consumer.

@AstroTheGamosian sunshine doesn’t hold up ether lmao, but that’s not the point

@Hordak yeah

I canceled my order. It doesn't even have the DS bonus features!! 60 bucks for a 1:1 ratio? Nintendo is a lot like EA games these days which they are being massively sued.

@Tuney Imagine if Breath of The Wild was for 'limited time only' you'd still be pleased?

@BlackenedHalo Hell yeah!

Y'know, the more I look at these, the less I want them. When it was announced I was pretty caught up in the hype but I think I might cancel to be honest. Much more excited for 3D World.

@Tuney Well said, friend, I agree with your words!

I cant wait for this.

Whats the price for this collection?

I don't get why people are complaining.

You get an HD Zelda wind waker and you have to pay 60 euro's for it, and everybody loves it.
You get an HD Mario Sunshine, wíth Mario 64 and an HD galaxy for 60 euro's, and everybody is complaining about 'low effort'.

Stop it, seriously....

After the rip-off that was a SNES ROM on a disc 10 years ago, this is a gold mine in comparison.

I love how before the collection this comments thread was full of ‘Nintendo would never bundle them all together, they’re not that generous”.

Then they do it and the complaints switch to “Where’s Galaxy 2? Why didn’t they change Mario 64?”

@Olddantrucker breath of the wild is an entirely new game while super mario 3d all stars is just a game compilation. Also breath of the wild wasn’t released to celebrate anything it was just a game they made, whilst 3d all stars was specifically made so they can celebrate the anniversary

@Clyde_Radcliffe I completely agree it's great there kept close to original styles. I was playing the snes mario all stars recently and was disappointed when Super Mario Bros looked liked every other 16 bit version. I went back to play the original version on nes. I get that back in the 90s the visual upgrades made sense since retro gaming wasn't old enough, but looking back now, that allstars pack has aged terribly. I believe this would be the case here too if Nintendo made all games look like Odyssey.

HD graphics here look sharp and good but we need to see how they control in game. Looking fwd to this.

Great collection minus the Galaxy 2, but bring it on baby

@PlayedNSlayed their remasters not remakes. No changes.

@Tuney
LAFFO people thought people like you wouldn’t defend the absolute BS that is Nintendo’s Disney Vault.

@SalvorHardin shut up, all stars games were always like this, because they’re celebrations which don’t last forever. And if you think i defend nintendo about everything then you’re just wrong, i criticized them for their bad controllers because of the drift, I criticized them for their bad subscription services, i criticized them for botw’s bad dlc, hell i’m not even a nintendo fanboy I play all consoles. just because I’m logical about this doesn’t mean i’m a nintendo fanboy who hates criticism. I mean i hate the fact that it’s limited too but just like how kids hate that Christmas ends, it’s still a celebration and it is limited. They aren’t doing it because of marketing it’s just a celebration, cause if they were just doing it for money then there would be waaaayyy more games like this.

@Norwegianguy about 60 dollars, don’t buy it off of ebay tho that place is filled with scalpers

@Travisemo007 “ remake all these games from the ground up in one year and also remake the soundtrack or else you’re scamming people “

@Tuney i half agree with you lol. the soundtracks can stay Haha.

Yep that’s Mario 64 alright

@Travisemo007 i was being sarcastic. If you don’t want these games that’s fine they didn’t hold you on gunpoint and force you to play it but it’s still nice to have the games for newer audiences or people who want to re-experience the game, i mean there’s virtually no way for them to make three video game remakes from the ground up in one year whilst also remaking every single animation, that’s just not how time works

@Crockin yeah I don’t get the whole “omg look screenshots” for this game, they’re just ports right? Why act like these are new screenshots

@Tuney im just kidding, I see no harm in this. People are interested to see how these look, even if it’s just a little upscaling

@Crockin fair

Lol tell that to Pokemon. Pretty sure they released a new Pokemon game and or remake after only a year.

@Tuney Okay. How'd you feel if you couldn't get Super Mario All Stars for the SNES a year later? All you'd get is scalpers charging over priced content (which none of the money even goes to Nintendo) due to it being second hand.

@personauser93 Welcome to the modern education system. Today's peoples are a product of the system now.

@Tuney But then the digital version shouldn't be limited since there is no overhead to worry about.
