Video: Super Mario 3D All-Stars Gets A New Sunshine-Specific Commercial

I haven't played any of the games in the 3D All-Stars, and man I'm excited to play Sunshine

First one I'm playing on Friday. Pumped.

A Greta Thunberg-approved advert.

This is the only one in the collection I haven't played, so I'm really looking forward to getting into it. I was hoping for a Sunshine remaster, but this will have to do!

Haven't played this in years, look forward to revisiting it...after Galaxy of course. Priorities

Gonna play them in order... as I no longer have the consoles that they came out on. Hope I can snag a copy because I can’t preorder or reserve here.

Its gonna be amazing, so excited

Sunshine is a good game, but better than Mario 64 and Mario Galaxy?! What have you been smoking?! Lol
I'll agree Sunshine is underrated but it's not the forgotten Mario gem that everyone seems to make it out to be. Looking forward to people finding that out for themselves in the next few weeks.

Pushing the one that almost certainly is the least played of the 3. It's easy to forget that the GameCube didn't actually sell well.

The levels without FLUDD and bonus levels are top tier 10/10 Mario. I wish the entire game was comprised of those levels. The red coin ones were very creative and fun.

Rest of the game is low tier Mario (which let's face it, is still top tier compared to Crash and Spyro)

Did they give us any news yet on how they would be fixing the analog trigger absence issues?

"The beginning of the trailer appears to 'select' Super Mario Sunshine from the three titles, suggesting we may get similar short ads for each of the three games."
Super Mario 64 one is already publicly uploaded to it's Youtube channel:
https://youtu.be/3CMjkywMEtc
Mario Galaxy trailer hasn't been publicly uploaded yet, but its on the website:
https://supermario3dallstars.nintendo.com/super-mario-galaxy/

All 3 trailers have been on the website since it launched over a week ago.

Not news.

Sunshine is still my favorite Mario game. The vibes, music and environment have yet to be matched IMO. Love all of them though! Cannot wait for this!

I'm so excited to play Sunshine for the first time. Its the only 3d Mario I've never played before.

@DAHstroy your in for a treat. Enjoy

@ryancraddock Aw yes. The nostalgia drug. I have to confess I'm guilty in partaking in Nostalgia every now and again as well.

I bounced off this one back in the day, but I'll be giving it another chance when I get my hands on the collection this month. I'll be playing 64 first, though, which I hardly ever played. Will be going in order.

Finally Super Mario Sunshine gets some love! Well overdue. Now I’m waiting for the Gamecube HD racing trilogy of WaveRace Bluestorm, 1080 Avalanche and F-Zero GX. Updated with online MP.

Edit: I’d sh&t my pants with excitement if that ever got announced! Who’s with me?!

I never owned an N64. My first outing with SM64 was on the DS. Bowser and Mario's character models in the original are so off-putting. I'd rather them port the DS version.

I may look like a total dopey nerd right now but I think whoever's wrote this article hasn't been on nintendos website at all. This ad has been there since the game was announced and so are ones that haven't been reported yet on 64 and galaxy. They say best of the bunch and new when it is old and there is a commercial in the same style for every game.

@beazlen1 I'm with you, would definitely soil myself if that trilogy was announced.

Will be playing Friday. Glad I’m purchasing digital.

@abbyhitter I totally agree. I don't have any nostalgic attachment to the janky original visuals. However, porting the DS version could have been a little more tricky, I am not sure what it would take to do that. As a game dev, I think the ports were a little lazy, there are some low hanging fruit outside of upping the res and fps that could have gone a long way. All that said, I am most likely still getting it, so well played Nintendo, well played.....

Sunshine is my favourite and I didn't enjoy it a lot the first time I played.

Would recommend a video guide for finishing up with the blue coins.

@abbyhitter Even though I've pre-ordered Super Mario 3D Allstars am very tempted to buy the DS version of Super Mario 64 so I can play with Yoshi and enjoy the extra levels.

I just need to know if you can invert the camera now.......please......

@pip_muzz you’re looking forward to people being disappointed?! Nice 🤨 I hope some people will be pleasantly surprised, myself included.

Why can't I perform a comment on the video? Did they recently turn them off?

Edit: I just now re-viewed the video and now the comments are turned off. Like, why Nintendo? People can't voice their thoughts on your videos?? I hate YouTube's service of comments being turned off

@DAHstroy Sunshine is easily the most underrated 3D Mario title (probably most underrated period, though I see a lot of hating on Lost Levels and they are brutal platforming bliss) and is the one I am most excited to revisit of the (excellent) bunch in 3D All-Stars. Hope you enjoy it!

@NintendoJunkie I dare say the controls are also super janky, especially in contrast to Sunshine and Galaxy.

SM64DS should've been like a bonus game, it was rather quickly released and forgotten on Wii U VC.

I see that Nintendo has turned off their comments on both the Mario 64 and Sunshine video. Pretty immature of you Nintendo.

This is the only game in the collection I never got to play.Really looking forward to it.

Galaxy is the best!
Galaxy> SM64 > SMS

All three of them are great games though.

@wazlon get it on Wii U. 😀

So at 0:12 Mario is running while using Fludd. In the original, this was done by lightly pressing R, and holding R all the way down locked Mario in place. I wonder how this version handles that since Switch does not have analog triggers?

@pip_muzz
Given that it sold less than half of what 64 and Galaxy sold (6 million vs both of their 12 million), and has never had any sort of port or re-release until now (64 had the DS remake and VC release. Galaxy had VC and Nvdia release. Sunshine didn't get anything), I'd say Sunshine IS a forgotten Mario gem in a relative sense.

@Danrenfroe2016 Have you got it on Wii U? Sounds like a good idea just want to make sure it supports analogue controls. Thanks 😀

@Patendo Dude i'm worried my pre-order is going to get pushed.

@jimtendog Where did you preorder?

Clean is better than dirty, and dirty's meaner than clean!

@Anri02 There was a video clip from the Japanese Twitter showing "R" stops and shoots FLUDD, so I would think ZR allows you to run and shoot.

@pip_muzz personally I think Sunshine is better, and that’s not just based on memories, I’ve replayed it the most times over the years. The problem with 64 is the controls and physics can be janky (really wish this wasn’t a direct port and rather was rebuilt in Galaxy’s engine). The problem with Galaxy is that it’s way more linear (most worlds only have 3 stars at most, and most of the time it’s a straight path to the star you selected). Sunshine is both more open than Galaxy and controls better than 64. So I certainly feel it’s the best, at least from my point of view. The innovation of the FLUDD just cements my opinion, since it’s so different and I like that sort of drastic change in my games.

That being said, yeah, I expect a lot of people to be disappointed in Sunshine, but mainly because, despite gamers often asking for new experiences, they tend to be happier with the status quo. 64 and Galaxy are fairly standard 3D Mario games, which is why they’re so successful. The Mario games that change up the formula the least are often the most financially successful for Nintendo, which seems to me as a reason why they play Mario games so safe. I think a lot of newcomers who expect a more traditional Mario game out of it will be disappointed. The FLUDD controls are a pretty big departure from the standard, simple “run and jump” mechanics of Mario.

Don’t get me wrong, I love 64 and Galaxy too. But I rarely replay them, because I get frustrated with how Mario controls in 64 and I get bored mid game in Galaxy when every stage feels more about “get from point A to point B” than about exploration.

@GrailUK Definitely not Spyro.

I wish Nintendo had gone with a bigger cartridge and added Super Mario Galaxy 2...

@jimtendog So your going to get you game right? amazon says its gonna show up on the 18th.

Why does Mario show no expression when he gets sent to jail? It's almost like he's Link now and can't talk and never had an independent thought in his life.

Mario 64 all the way

I sh&t my pants just thinking about those 3 awsome games. Would be amazing if they got a port.

@Fre4ked I don’t think so. I imagine the FLUDD controls are just maxed out and you need to tap the shoulder buttons to get less water flow. Like a slow tapping for a low spray, a faster paced tapping for a medium spray, and just holding it down for the maximum spray.

@jimtendog Is there anyway you can give me a screenshot of this dispatch?
Obviously I don't want personal details.

I am now just annoyed that they have not dispatched my copy yet.

I'll have fun with all the games... but I'm expecting MANY "holy cow, I had no idea the camera was THAT bad" posts about Sunshine and 64.

@Snatcher where did you order??

For me personally Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 are both master pieces.

@Anri02 @Fre4ked According to another source for the FLUDD controls, ZR is a running squirt and R is a stop and squirt.

@MetalMan You beat me to it! Maybe I missed it, but I am surprised NL hasn’t covered this.

@Patendo Amazon Day one.

@TheSiltStrider I agree. Sunshine is unique and I love it for that

@wazlon

no true analog controls. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSt7vSSrIhY

Its OK, But only 8 directions and no analog.

Does anyone know if Sunshines camera will be inverted or changed not to be?

@pip_muzz I completely agree. Sunshine is a good game, but it is easily the worst 3D Mario. Nintendo were going through this "short and sweet " phase with their games at the start of the Gamecabe era as per their own words. This was evident in their other 1st party games at the time like Luigi's Mansion, Wind Waker and Pikmin 1.
Mario Sunshine just felt a bit rushed and lacking the same quality as the best Mario's.

Big Sunshine fan here though I’ve never completed it.
Damn you Petey Piranha!

Making rounds on the internet, Nintendo is using an emulator for the 3d mario anniversary 😅. So they could've just released a virtual console, than wasting everybody's time.

@CupidStunt Yep, Sunshine was the first Mario game I actually gave up on, it just didn't feel right. Nowhere near as much fun as Mario 64.

@Tandy255 Gotta give us better context for all this squirting!

I love 3D Mario games, but I’ve never liked sunshine, I always lose interest. Hopefully I’ll come around this time.

@Jslade The higher texture quality, higher resolution, and 16:9 update make it look way better than the original. Even if it isn't a full remaster, this will be the definitive version.

I'm actually considering getting some fancy beverages & snacks to enjoy while playing this game all by myself this Friday... funny what the pandemic has done to us.

@Snatcher You will be fine, they are normally quite good at meeting the pre-orders for me.

Happy gaming friday is nearly here

@jimtendog I am absolutely not disputing your say so. I wanted something that I am able to reference to ShopTo, but just with no personal identifying information.

I wanted to ask them why they dispatched a copy of the game, but told me that it will not be despatched until today.

@Tandy255 Ooh! Finally, I can rest in peace now. I mean.. Thanks!

@Patendo Lets-a go!

@Danrenfroe2016 I got the Wii U version of Super Mario 64 DS and regret it. The controls are really awkward, the graphics look awful in full screen and the other screen options don't do it for me.

Never mind, will just play it on Super Mario Allstars but thanks anyway.
