They had me at Mario 64, no way I'm passing up another physical edition of the GOAT.

 

[Boss Mog]

Great games for sure, I just don't have the time to replay things anymore when I can't keep up with new releases.

Here is the trailer:

Seems only Mario Galaxy is running at 60fps. Super lazy on Nintendo's part not to make the other two run at 60fps.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Just think about the people who bought Super Mario Bros on NES, Mario All Stars on SNES, Mario Deluxe on GBC, NES Classics Super Mario Brothers on GBA, Super Mario Bros on Wii VC, Mario 25th Anniversary Collection on Wii, Super Mario Bros on 3DS, and Super Mario Brothers on Wii U, then paid a monthly subscription to get access to Super Mario Brothers.

It’s a world gamers created they all buy the same game twice sometimes three times in the end developers won

 

[Vawn]

people who complain about prices are worth mocking

like lol do you need your parents to give you more allowance money?

sorry dude if $60 is breaking your back then you shouldn't be wasting money on videogames.

It's all relative. What if McDonald's charged $50 for a cheeseburger? Is it no biggie, because it's "only $50"?

 

[Sophist]

 

[Danjin44]

I'm kind of interested in this (but mostly for Galaxy), If I can buy that one separately then I'm all for it.

 

[Andyliini]

Now, I'll wait until local store's put up the preorder. No way I'll pass the physical version.

 

[GamesAreFun]

Usually I'm excited by new ports, but not here. I've played all the games, and still own them all except Sunshine. A good collection for someone who missed the Gamecube or Wii I guess.

It's a shame; we've recently seen great visual upgrades of random ass games like Spongebob, Ghostbusters, Saints Row 3, & many others, yet in typical Nintendo fashion they do the bare minimum.

 

[ShirAhava]

64 and sunshine are awesome don't care for galaxy

 

[Kokoloko85]

No snes super mario world on 2d collection either....

 

[JORMBO]

I preordered even though the price is garbage. I haven't played Sunshine or Galaxy so they are new to me.

 

[SegaShack]

Absolutely. Each generation I see people begging for ports of games from the past.

 

[Dthomp]

I’ve been wanting to play Mario 64 for the last year but can’t bring myself to open my sealed copy and a used copy would cost me this much anyways and I get to replay Sunshine and finally play Galaxy...take my money

 

[StormCell]

Absolutely. Each generation I see people begging for ports of games from the past.

I think it's a good market. It costs very little to port, they make a very good return in the process, and that money helps to fund more research and development for games like BotW.

 

[jaysius]

Hilarious post. You nailed it sir!

Here's another great analogy for Nintendo's abusive relation with it's fans.



"I'll help you with the fall" Yup Nintendo, you sure will.

 

[Punished Miku]

Hopefully Mario 64 has smooth right stick camera control, and Sunshine has gyro control for FLUDD.

 

[GaviotaGrande]

This shit makes me happy that I sold my Switch last week (that was collecting dust for the last 2 years).

Bye, Nintendo.

 

[UniformDeliverance]

I'm excited for this, but was really hoping for some form of remaster. Mario 64 at least could use a touch up.

 

[Poop!]

My 5 and 7 year old kids will crap their pants. They have been wanting to play these but couldn't work the controllers for the N64, I'm not paying $50 for a used GameCube version of Sunshine, and my kids hate the Wiimote controls. This is perfect for my kids and will be a day one purchase.

 

[jts]

It's getting some upgraded textures and higher res, the other games will benefit from being rendered at higher resolutions. Who knows maybe some texture work done too. We'll have to wait and see.

And yet here you are browsing threads for a console you no longer own lol

 

[Shaqazooloo]

Eh, Galaxy 1 & 2 seem to be still $35-45 each on the original Wii, so I really wasn't expecting 2 to be apart of this.

I got this already preorded, i'm ready.

 

[Punished Miku]

Supposedly Galaxy is 60 fps. But it's all speculation right now.

 

[#Phonepunk#]

yeah its so hard being a Nintendo fan. so hard to pay $60 to play three of the most acclaimed games of all time. so abusive. why is Nintendo like this? why?? WHHYYYY??

lol the whining today is just epic. people need to get a fucking grip. so you pay $60 to play these games once every decade. holy fuck is that some crime against humanity lol

 

[Punished Miku]

This physical game is going to be worth $100 in a year.

How many different versions of Blade Runner have I bought over the years?

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

So, physical copies sold out everywhere already? Or not yet up for sale?

 

[Punished Miku]

So, physical copies sold out everyone already? Or not yet up for sale?

I just got one at Best Buy.

 

[iconmaster]

I'm 70% sure the originals were 60fps, and the trailer footage in 3D All-Stars looked like 60fps.

 

[TKOFromTokyo]

Preordered from Best Buy, didn’t see it anywhere else

 

[Impotaku]

here in uk mario 3d collection, 3D world & the game and watch are all available to preorder from nintendo uk's online store.

 

[GaviotaGrande]

"lol"

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

OK, thanks! Just got it from BB as well.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Imagine:

Limited run till march, physical and digital.

Then Switch pro comes out and they will replace this pack with a new one including Galaxy 2 and some other improvements. People will need to double dip if they wanna play Galaxy 2, cause it will be only tied to the new 60$ pack. xD

I mean even Nintendo wouldn't be that scummy right?

Don’t give them ideas, Satan.

So Mario is Luke’s father?


I’m not happy about Nintendo’s greed and laziness, but I can’t say I’m surprised either. Actually, it would’ve been naive to expect more. They know this is scummy, that’s why they made the collection limited. This ensures all physical copies will fly off the shelves anyway, and you can wager your genitalia that when the 3 games are eventually sold separately in the eShop, you’ll have to pay more for the trio than for the collection. It’ll be something like $19.99 for SM64, $24.99 for Sunshine and $29.99-34.99 for Galaxy. A limited-time digital release is a new low, seriously.

Go and preorder this instant if you want the physical version, but otherwise watching an in-depth analysis of the release should be recommended before you buy.

 

[Cyborg]

Ladies and Gents I present to you the lazy, most “consumer friendly” company of the year.

Nintendo is such a joke these days. Bring fcking new games stop “remastering” and putting so little effort but charging almost full price.

While Im at it your joycons are garbage and drift like crazy! Its shameful (and no honor) that you dont adres this problem.

 

[SegaShack]

yeah its so hard being a Nintendo fan. so hard to pay $60 to play three of the most acclaimed games of all time

Have you not played or remembered the reaction at the time to Mario Sunshine? Surely you don't actually believe this do you?

 

[Punished Miku]

Have you not played or remembered the reaction at the time to Mario Sunshine? Surely you don't actually believe this do you?

Back then people didn't really make up their minds based on internet reaction. They just played the games and decided for themselves.

For me, it's always been one of my favorite games ever made. Getting 100% in that game was a real challenge at the time.

Sunshine is the main draw for me in this whole package, and the only one I haven't replayed since it's original release.

 

[SegaShack]

Back then people didn't really make up their minds based on internet reaction. They just played the games and decided for themselves.

I'm glad you enjoyed the game. People did make up their mind based on the internet and magazines, and people also thought for themselves, same as now.

Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker I remember everyone hating. I thought they were fun and didn't get the backlash and the games biggest crimes were that they were nowhere near the quality of what came before it (Ocarina of Time and Mario 64).

To say Sunshine was loved back then or is one of the most acclaimed games of all time is revisionist history.

 

[nkarafo]

Supposedly Galaxy is 60 fps. But it's all speculation right now.

Galaxy was always 60fps. Nothing is changed.

 

[BeardGawd]

I don't understand why these aren't apart of NSO. Seems crazy to have to buy these separately and they haven't even bothered to update the graphics. Would have loved for SM64 to be rebuilt in Galaxy's engine.

 

[Punished Miku]

This whole thing reminds me of this.

Low effort, barebones port. But sought after by collectors.

 

[GamesAreFun]

Supposedly Galaxy is 60 fps. But it's all speculation right now.

More speculation, but as Nintendo (with Nvidia) already ported Mario Galaxy to the Chinese Nvidia Shield which ran close to 60fps, would be surprising if this collection isn't built on the same code.

 

[kretos]

I won't comment on the lazy port or the limited physical copies that's normal, but limited digital release? what type of shit is this? i think it's the first time i see something like this

Nintendo cowards without honor and they know they will get away with this bullshit because their fans allow it and just pay

 

[jts]

This whole thing reminds me of this.

Low effort, barebones port. But sought after by collectors.

This was the way I first beat OoT. And it came FREE with TWW. I didn't mind one bit that it looked exactly like the N64 version. I usually prefer original looks to updated versions, which usually feel odd.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

Games look fantastic in the trailer.

If I ever buy a Switch, it's for this.

 

[TheDuskwalker]

It's up for pre-order on Amazon by the way.

This whole thing reminds me of this.

Low effort, barebones port. But sought after by collectors.

And to think I got it for 5$ for pre-ordering Wind Waker.

 

[Zog]

I think Nintendo knows that if you LOVE Mario, you've already pre-ordered it by now. So those who love it snatch it regardless of its limited engagement.

I think Nintendo just wants to create artificial scarcity.

 

[Punished Miku]

 

[carlosrox]

Day 1.

 

[Megatron]

Ah, seems like I’m buying a physical for collecting purposes and a digital to actually play.

Yeah.... I think I may be right there with you....
