As it is, Super Mario 3D All-Stars is overpriced and underwhelming. It's a rather half-assed way to celebrate Super Mario Bros. But since this is Nintendo we're talking about, they can definitely get away with it. With so little changes made, Nintendo still charges $60 for this collection.

Hell, Super Mario 64 still has black bars on all sides of the screen instead of being adapted to modern TV lengths.
Instead of recreating everything with new models, Nintendo merely smoothed out the polygons so the characters and settings look more crisp on modern displays. Super Mario 3D All-Stars just feels.lazy in comparison. They did all of this, and still the Spyro Reignited Trilogy had a launch price of only $40. On top of that, the developers upgraded each of the Spyro games' gameplay controls and camera controls so they worked perfectly with Nintendo Switch. This isn't just upscaled graphics, mind you, but upgraded models that bring the game up to speed with the visuals of current-gen consoles. The Spyro Reignited Trilogy includes the three original Spyro games fully remastered in HD. I couldn't help but compare this collection to the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, which is the perfect example of what Nintendo should have done with Super Mario 3D All-Stars. A lazy port More should have been done hereĪs it is, Super Mario 3D All-Stars is overpriced and underwhelming. But, as much as I love these classic Mario titles, I'm rather disappointed in the Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection. I was really hoping I'd be able to add this to my own personal list of the best Nintendo Switch games.

With that being the case, the games themselves are just as fun as they've ever been and there's no question in my mind that they are indeed worthy of your time.Įach game offers vibrant visuals and a wealth of fun locations for players to explore or rediscover.
Some changes have been made here and there, but most of them are so minute that I'm sure the vast majority of people won't be able to recognize them. I headed to all of the familiar secret locations that I'd learned years ago and quickly collected Stars and Shines. Even though I hadn't played any of these games in a decent while, the muscle memory that I've built up by replaying them so many times over the years made it so the controls came back to me right away.
