    Inject that Mario HD collection right into my veins, quite frankly.

    I saw the tweet. I read it twice. I looked for a date/time.

    "Wait, what? It's there now!".


    Totally down for the HD collection and nice that is going to be some additional 3D World content as well.

    Fantastic!

    The only query I have is how Mario Galaxy would play on a Switch Lite without the joycons. It's been years since I played it - anyone foresee issues?

    February 21, 2011 was the 25th anniversary of LoZ. I demand parity!

    I really wish they did a full HD remake of Mario 64 (along with the extra content from the DS version) but if they did that it would probably be for a full priced version.

    Just had a quick blast of Lost Levels there, a wee bit of slow down on it, specifically noticed towards the end of 1-1 and the start of 1-2 can't remember that from the OG SNES version, was probably prevalent on the NES original...

    I am not sure if it's the emulation or what, but I'm sure it will be sorted with an update....

    Edit: But it was about time we heard some news.

    Tomorrow is the 1 year anniversary of the last real Nintendo Direct.

    Biggest disappointment is Galaxy 2 not newing included. I heard enough rumours that it was just the 3 that I wasn't expecting Galaxy 2, but I was still hoping.

    Wow - you are a very lucky person. Actually, anyone who hasn't played many Mario games is in for a real treat.


    I'd count Mario 64, Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D World to easily be my favourite video games of all time. Really. BOTW is probably my favourite game. But it's not an in your face high octane pure fun video game, which the Mario games are.

    I hope they play as well as they did on their original platforms. I'm assuming the joy-cons can easily replace the Wiimote for Galaxy.

    Plus, you get a music player. Galaxy has the most incredible soundtrack. Gusty garden galaxy, buoy base galaxy, beehive galaxy, it goes on and on ... you will be blown away.

    Also, (2D) Super Mario Allstars on Nintendo Switch online. This was the version I first played. Plus SM3 on the original NES has a weird scrolling flickering issue ... which is not on the Allstars version. Class !

    I going to get the 3D Allstars physical as it's got Sunshine on it which I've never played. Plus Galaxy in HD should look even more fantastic. This still is an incredible looking game even in SD. Also, for some reason it's a limited edition. Anyway ... looks great ! And it's out in a couple of weeks.

    Probably will get the new 3D world if the new "Bowser's fury" part is worth it. If you haven't played 3D world ... it's just brilliant fun. It'd be nice if they'd convert the 3DS Super Mario 3D land as well ... but you can't have everything. Also, the music is just gorgeous in this game. e.g. Ant tropper hill theme. Plus the whole "Circus" feel to the game. Also you get to control multiple Marios and Cat mario. It's just a ton of fun. (edit) plus those captain toad levels. And multiplayer done well. Also, Goombas on ice :) It's fun, and then it gets more fun. And then it's gets seriously fun. :):)

    Mario 64 ... got all 120 stars when I played this and loved every minute of this. Wonderful revolutionary game. Hope it still holds up. Wonder will get get 60FPS or ...

    Also, wondering where Galaxy 2 is. A wonderful game. But for me, not as good as 1, as the music is just not the same, it does not have a "story" and 1 had a brilliant hub world. Also, it could never be as ground breaking as the first.

    Maybe I'm playing it a wee bit too fast :P

    Thought it was my TV and went to switch off game mode and it was already off, tried it with it on and off and no difference, it's definitely there....

    expect Galaxy 2, 3d World, and Odyssey on the next All-stars collection. Probably in 5 years time.

    With all the excitement about the 3d collection, Mario Kart and 3d World, I'm not seeing much talk about Mario 35! Looks like absolute carnage and exactly the type of thing that the Online service needs!
