This being a basic ass collection doesn't surprise me after All-Stars on Wii was literally the SNES ROM dumped onto Wii discs. Even that release was budget priced, though, IIRC.
I think the bigger issue is that Sunshine has tons of problems and is a pretty poor game, unless they put some work than it just adds to the dissapointment since these are just ports.

Not surprised this is limited since that was the case for the Wii port, but whatever; I'm not dawdling on buying it. Holy shit on it being only two weeks away.

Sunshine finally being re-released after 19 or so years.
It's the 'black sheep' of the main Mario series I guess, repetitive and a bit hard, but I enjoyed it all the same.

Minimal effort on that SM64 though. Looks bad with the PC version that's going around with 4K/60, improved character-models etc.

How dare you include Sunshine and not Galaxy 2, you cowards. I went from excited to depressed just from looking at the box art.

Are we really gonna have to do this thing every time where Nintendo announces something and then people have to pretend to be shocked that it's $60? If it's from Nintendo and it's on Switch, it's $60.

We know that people are upset with this because they mention it in every single thread about Switch games. We know you think a port or rom collection should only be $20. Please just let the rest of us be excited.

Era reminds me of my friend who got a Switch and never buys anything for it because $60 is 'too much'. Then he says he has nothing to play on it. Why even get a Switch? Why do people even follow Nintendo news just to pretend to be upset that new games are $60?
You're entitled to your opinion, and they're entitled to theirs. Grow up and learn to accept that not everyone is going to agree. I'm a huge Nintendo, and Mario, fan and I think this collection sucks.

What's with the limited run? Does that mean I won't get a copy because scalpers will fuck me?

Galaxy 2's exclusion definitely stings the most. Galaxy 1 is an incredible game but it's also incredibly easy, especially if you've played it before. Like 95% of it I could just breeze through, and so the prospect of replaying it just to finish that 5% I didn't get to when I was a kid isn't that great a prospect.

Yeah, ok. I just went back to listen again and they are indeed only selling the physical/digital version until March 2021. I'm gonna buy it anyway cause I'm going to want it for the collection but this seems pretty... eh? Why just stop selling the game? Same thing with the Mario battle royale thing, they're gonna cut you off from playing it at the end of March. This is really lame.

Not sure how you can justify porting both 64 and Sunshine and leaving them at 30fps for a full price game.

60 dollars but no 60fps for Sunshine (I guess?), no graphics improvements for SM64 and no Galaxy 2 is super underwhelming.

All those months of the Nintendo community being obsessed to hell and back for barebone ports huh.

Happy that the rumours where true. But I'm disappointed that these are just barely touched up ports and Nintendo charging $60 bucks for this :/

I'll be buying the 3d All Stars pack but definitely disappointed that SM64 didn't get more of a remake with better visuals and of course, the SMG2 omission.

The physical copy of this game is gonna be crazy expensive on the second hand market.

I'm on team 'actually pretty glad they haven't touched Mario 64, it's already perfect'

This, remake would have been nice, but the game is great as it is

It doesn't need a remake. If they're going to make another 3D Mario game from scratch, I'd prefer a new game and not a remake

Do people ever actually, like, set their games up just to listen to the soundtracks when they're included as an extra like this? I mean the OSTs have already been ripped in high quality and available on YouTube for years. Actually that's probably a better way to listen to them since they have extended variations too.

Nintendo being Nintendo unfortunately. And of course charging like Nintendo. And don't forget never lowering prices months or years after their games come out like Nintendo.

Holding galaxy 2 back for another collection of something not cool either.
