Then you'll be in for a treat because these games are some of the best out there
I mean, it also makes a lot of sense. It doesn't seem like any of Nintendo's major internal teams are due for releasing a big game this fall, and this is pretty much what I'd expect a company in Nintendo's shoes to do when faced with that scenario. It's also a milestone anniversary for Super Mario, and Nintendo has celebrated pretty much every one of those with some sort of retro collection or retro-inspired game. This isn't anything outlandish, like a Star Fox racing game, or anything.
Also, it's more than three sources reporting this. Emily Rogers was first to this very smokey fire; she said it would be a good year for Mario fans and then talked about how Nintendo's goal was getting all of their old games in HD on the Switch.
I'm all in for Mario 64 at 1080p 60fps with better filtering (and maybe AA? Nintendo doesn't seem to care about AA...). Updating the camera to work with right analog would be nice as would eliminating any pop-in.
He said he can't wait, not that he wants. He was even the first one to talk about Galaxy.
Seek help.
They'll all be released individually. And all at $59.99 each.
Anyone thinking they'll bundle them in a collection is delusional.
I don't think that makes sense for Mario 64. The game ran on seriously limited hardware. I don't think a remaster is even possible. It will either be a full remake or a game that comes with N64 VC. I think the former is more likely going off the rumors.
No way. They release Galaxy 1 and 2 bundled at $59.
The rest $29.99. Unless they are completely overhauled.
Hopefully this is real.

Holy if that is real!
I am one of the few people who neverwas into Mario 64. Played it just very little..and it was boring for me..dont know why..but Super Mario World was the only way at that time, how i wanted to play Mario games. But now, i am sooo looking forward to play Mario 64 on my switch - if it indeed would release! I wonder if they would make it like the XBDE or the Crash Bandicot ´N Sane Trilogy. Hyped also for Galaxy and 3d World!

Galaxy 2!
Has the timing of these announcements been discussed at all?Is it leaking now because Nintendo is planning a video presentation on all things Mario soon?
I personally don't believe it... but if I had to guess most of them out be outsourced
- 64 being a full blown remake by Nintendo with Odyssey visuals and all the content of 64 DS;
- Sunshine & Galaxy 2 HD remasters by Tantalus maybe?
- Galaxy 1 is already in HD on NVidia Shield in China;
- 3D Land would be either be reconstructed in the 3D World graphical engine or the remaster would be done by Grezzo;
- and a 3D World port is expected regardless of this particular rumor

Okay they are saying it's one bundle for the old games bar 3D World and it's a TTYD style Paper Mario
Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine bundled for $59.99
Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 bundled for $59.99
Super Mario 3D World Deluxe for $59.99
...is the most likely scenario to me. Released in that order.
64 is the real draw of the 64/Sunshine set; they won't let people buy just that for $29.99.
No but they said "and more", and said that almost all 3D Mario games will release this year.
I only expect 3D Land to not happen.
On the contrary I'd suggest the bolded would rule out straight ports. I could see cheaper/compilation emulated versions but if they are being rereleased as full products then it would be reasonable to expect the treatment that Ocarina, Majora's Mask, Star Fox 64, Wind Waker and now Xenoblade got.
Twilight Princess is the obvious outlier in how Nintendo treats updated rereleases to more powerful platforms.
...are they? they've widely regarded as some of the best games ever made.
They're just making assumptions. They say immediately after the talk about a possible bundle, that it's also probable Nintendo releases them one by one
"as long as you survive the deadliest virus ever, you'll be able to witness the best year of gaming in your entire life"
Grrrrrrr
Grrrrrrr
have you read the reports? They say the games are part of the universal park celebration.
I really hope Super Mario 64 gets the big beautiful HD remake it deserves instead of just an up-resed port. Super Mario 64 is brilliant, but it has aged a lot in the past 24 years and could benefit from some real work.
Ocarina and MM in HD with the 3DS artstyle has been my dream for years
Koizumi: Add more story to 3D Mario games? Hold my beer!
I actually prefer Koizumi to Miyamoto's approach. SMG2 aalways felt like it was missing the grandiour of SMG1 (same with 3d world). Koizumi has only done a bad story with SMS, and i think he clearly learned from that lesson after what we saw with Galaxy 1 and Odyssey
Yeah remember that Tom Phillips answered "👀" when asked "I hope it won't be Super Mario All Star" again when the reports started, I believe this new report of a collection of 64, Sunshine, Galaxy 1&2 in one package, seems like it might be what Tom was hinting at when he answered that to the All Star message.
Lol that one was pretty wild.
Didn't know about the Emily part. Hopefully not just Mario games get there then.
Sunshine and 3D World are trash, but it'll be nice for the people who (incomprehensibly, to me) like them.
Galaxy/2 needs to be in HD. I'm not a huge fan of the games, but the visuals are stunning (and the music, of course - best OST ever, IMO). I'll probably re-buy them and then hate the trash-bombing and rollcage stars with all of my fucking being yet again.
But Mario 64? I'm so ready for a re-mastered (or better yet, re-made) version of that game.
Also, announce Odyssey 2, you cowards...because, you know, doing all this isn't enough or whatever...
