I love Sunshine. Such a good summer-y game.
They should make another game using FLUDD. Great mechanic.
Hopefully the remaster fixes the awful controls though.

Eurogamer doesn't have a perfect track record (they were one of the big names behind Pokemon Stars) but they have a pretty good one. There definitely are clickbait sites that will post any random 4chan post they find but Eurogame for the most part has been fairly consistent.
Simple upres of a Wii game doesn't look amazing but looks pretty good
I'm sure there's footage of Galaxy and Galaxy 2 running at 1080p in Dolphin somewhere
Why are some of you guys talking about April Fools, even Jason Schreier commented about it, he was the first one confirming Galaxy.
I'm really curious how they price these. I'd like to see them drop Mario 64 for free for Nintendo Switch Online. Then they could charge 10 bucks for the other games. I'd like to see the Galaxy games come as a single pack.
A Super Mario direct would be hype as shit.
But I guess the surprise is ruined now lol
I mean, if people are reporting it, I just imagine that it's close to announcement/release.
Only 3D Mario I failed to 100 percent because of those damn things lol. They were awful.
All you need to do is render it in widescreen, 1080p and revise the camera controls. I know it's not trivial work, but the game does not need a full remake. Same with Sunshine, except you need to find a way around the lack of analog triggers.
I don't care for the Mario franchise but this seems really cool, I wish they did something like this for Metroid.
Seperate threads for seperate discussion I guess lol.
Galaxy and 3D World coming to the Switch is nice and all but I'm way more interested in 64 and Sunshine 🤷♂️
Damn this leak. Done right, this could be really exciting. When Nintendo revealed the Switch as the culmination of all their previous hardware, I hoped that meant we'd get access to a huge chunk of their back catalogue through it. Now this would 'only' be the Super Mario series, but that's one hell of a start right there. I'm hoping it's an ambitious but reasonable roll-out of almost all the core Super Mario games, along with exciting new games, as implied by the report, but who knows.
I really want to know what Nintendo are planning with this. Super Mario Direct soon, please?

Get ready to throw controllers at the pachinko level in HD.
Or marvel at the incredibly shitty final bossfight in sweet 1080p.
I look forward to all the LTTP and RTTP threads about how Sunshine really doesn't hold up that well. Unless it gets the WW HD treatment. I really hope it does.

Can't believe I wake up to this Gamexplain notif before i get on Animal Crossing for today. If this is true, they have me by the balls. I will explode at the announce of just Marii 64 HD, but if they are doing every other game I have to fork up the cash.
Would this give credence to the "return-to-form" Paper Mario rumor floating around a while back? Playing through Color Splash now and it's fine, but man, I'd give anything to wash the taste of Sticker Star out of my mouth.
I'm down for these remasters, regardless -- wasn't that hot on 3D World when it first came out, but I'd love to give it another shot! Galaxy without waggle would be an interesting experiment.

Would love to see a 64/Sunshine/Galaxy collection, but they're gonna be sold separately aren't they?
I'm weak though so will still probably buy them. The three of them are just great games.

Eh it's still the same discussion ... imo ... just every outlet out there trying to 1up the others with details. ;]
Hoping against everything we've heard that some wires were crossed somewhere and the message 'Galaxy being released in HD' alongside the other games meant to say both games but 2 didn't warrant a mention because the first overshadowed it somewhat.
All 3D Mario on Switch but Galaxy 2 would be heartbreaking. On its 10th anniversary too!

I'm in for both of these, though I hope they are more than just straight ports. I want the extra stars and characters that were in the DS version of Mario 64 without the shitty D-Pad controls, and I want Nintendo to try to smooth out at least some of Sunshines rough edges, like the blue coin hunt.
At minimum it should have all the assets rendered at 720p or higher, not just the regular game upscaled like a VC title. Hoping for better but this seems the most realistic.
Yes, this!
Real shit mario 64 remaster please ninty
My sould ascending to heaven when this gets officially announced
Please please please the latter. I can't wait to see HD Sunshine and HD Galaxy. A simple resolution uplift would be disappointing, they could have done that years ago now, as China demonstrates. I want to see them new graphics.
Dude no. We waited so long for this. And even though the art style of those are still good, the tech did age horribly. Low res textures everywhere, flat last gen lighting with no dynamic shadows... it's not good in this day and age. Expect better from your favorite company please. They could have ported a simple up-ressed version like the Tegra Shield one years agooo...!!!!

There is, although it's usually augmented by other things like AA, etc. But yeah they look fine. My point was more like, in the context of what remasters have now become with things like Crash, Xenoblade, etc., being more or less complete visual overhauls, it would be pretty lame if they cheaped out on Mario.
