Super Mario 3D All-Stars (スーパーマリオ 3Dコレクション[1] Sūpā Mario 3D Korekushon?, Super Mario 3D Collection) is an upcoming Nintendo Switch 3D Platformer Collection game that will be released on September 18, 2020 for a limited time. Announced alongside to celebrate Mario's 35th Anniversary. 3D All-Stars includes high-definition ports of the first three 3D platformers in the Super Mario series: Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy. The collection will only be available until late March 2021.[2]
Development
According to video game news website Eurogamer, Nintendo referred to the compilation as Super Mario All-Stars 2 internally.[3] Super Mario 3D All-Stars was officially announced on a Nintendo Direct presentation on September 3rd 2020.[4]
Features
All games have been improved for a "smoother" experience, high-definition upgrades (up to 1920 x 1080 docked; except 64), and new Switch controls, while they maintain their faithful design and look.[5] There will also be a new mode where the player can listen to whole soundtracks of all three included games, whether the console is turned on or off. The text and dialogues are expected to be changed for improvement, removal of original console-exclusive features not compatible with the Switch, and to match the Switch controls.
Games
Super Mario 64
- Super Mario 64 - 64 will retain its 4:3 aspect ratio, while now having a high-definition upgrade, up to a resolution of 960 x 720 in both docked and handheld modes.[5] The HUD design has been modified for an HD upgrade as well which now looks smooth and more clear. The same is applied to Mario's "M" emblem.[6] The game's title screen has a "Press +" text, replacing the "Press Start" text to match the Switch controls. Mario will no longer say "So long, king Bowser!" when throwing him; he'll instead say "Bye-bye!"
Super Mario Sunshine
Sunshine will feature an aspect ratio presentation of 16:9 hacked from the original using a hacker ported widescreen Gecko code for the GameCube created by a GameCube/WiiRD hacker "Gamemasterplc". Additionally, despite the Switch's capability to support the GameCube controller (via an adapter) and the game originating from the console, this version will not support such a controller.[7]
Super Mario Galaxy
Galaxy will have motion controls through the use of two detached Joy-Con controllers, which is required even if the game is played on the Nintendo Switch Lite system. The star cursor is now determined by the motion of a Joy-Con rather than requiring a sensor bar, as it was in the original. The cursor can also be interacted through the use of touchscreen if played in handheld mode. A secondary Joy-Con controller is required for co-op 2-player mode. Other features like the Wii Message Board messages and the Wii Remote speaker will not return as it is not present with the Switch's current hardware and features.
