    I have to say, I was quite disappointed with Super Mario 3D All-Stars. While it was great to have three classic Mario games in one package, the overall experience just didn't live up to my expectations. The graphics were improved, but not by much, and the controls felt clunky and unresponsive at times. It also felt like there wasn't enough new content to justify the price.

    Los 3 juegos son emulados y no tienen nada distinto a los originales, cero esfuerzo por parte de Nintendo y mucha audacia en poner a la venta un compilado corriente a precio de Triple A.

    NIntendo just wants money. Galaxy 2 was the last good 3D Mario game, afterwards, they all sucked and just wanted money. Speaking of, they chose to exclude Galaxy 2 to get more money for their value.

    These are okay Games but as a Collection ist it not good.
    No content and not even widescreen for Mario 64.
    This is just bad

    Ok, this is NOT based on the games in the collection, this is based on how the main game does when it comes to making these 3 amazing titles justice..and holy **** they didn't do any of that. Now before I want to say the bad, I wanted to say the good. The $60 price tag isn't all that bad, mainly because these games go for high prices on sites like eBay. So the pricing is sort of forgiving,Ok, this is NOT based on the games in the collection, this is based on how the main game does when it comes to making these 3 amazing titles justice..and holy **** they didn't do any of that.

So the pricing is sort of forgiving, everything else isn't. You get 3 games and some music. All of these can be done by using an emulator or going on Youtube for the music. If you take something like Crash, he had 3 of his games, but they were remastered. Now I understand that Nintendo can't remaster the games, and that's ok, but Crash was only $40, but $60. I will say the smaller updates to the games are so dumb, Mario 64 got sightly better graphics, Sunshine got a wider screen, which makes no sense, and can't the others do the same, and I forgot about Galaxy. Overall this game isn't garbage, but other games truly do the classic games they were trying to be back justice, like Crash.… Expand

    As always, Mario 64 is fantastic and one of Mario's best adventures (especially in 3D) and I am glad to have it on the switch with improved graphics too! I am giving 3D all stars as a whole a 4 though, Mario Galaxy and Mario Sunshine are terrible games and I do not understand why people like them. Mario Galaxy has too much of a difficulty spike early on and the mechanics are annoying.

I am giving 3D all stars as a whole a 4 though, Mario Galaxy and Mario Sunshine are terrible games and I do not understand why people like them. Mario Galaxy has too much of a difficulty spike early on and the mechanics are annoying. In Mario Sunshine, the levels are far too difficult to find and the F.L.U.D.D. mechanics are annoying, unfun, and they add very little to the game. The only good part of Sunshine is the music, the creation of Bowser Jr. and E. Gadd references. Mario galaxy barely has any good music and all of the new characters are rubbish. Mario 64, as usual, knocks the music out of the park, the low poly graphics are very charming and some of the enemies introduced here are great too! I do wish there was a way to view all of the artwork outside of the loading screens though, and the soundtrack/ jukebox section is a nice addition. All in all, I only got this to play Mario Galaxy and Mario Sunshine (I had already played 64), and I did not enjoy the games very much at all. Very overrated (except Mario 64).… Expand

    I was expecting far more for Mario's 35th anniversary. Something like Kirby's dream collection for the wii. But unfortunately this is just a pretty lazy re release of the most important 3d Mario games.

    Three classic games in an absolutely shameful collection. This product doesn't come anywhere close to living up to Nintendo's usual standard. The games are all the original games playing in emulators - flawed emulators. Enhanced graphics are done by having the emulator swap out textures with higher resolution ones on the fly.

Sure, that's something that's been done before, and since. But the emulators themselves are buggy as well. There's a lot of popping of models. There's graphics glitches. There's a lack of widescreen support. What the world was expecting was to see the games remade with better graphics, like the original Super Mario All-Stars. What the world received was one of the laziest compilation jobs out there. At the very least, the collection did include some side content, mostly in a music player. But that doesn't redeem that the games themselves, already limited to three with several other titles that people were looking for absent, were presented this badly.… Expand

    A lazy, half-assed port that should have been 20$. It's sad to see Nintendo exploiting their fans who would buy almost anything. Sure, all of these games in the collection are some of the greatest of all time, but these games are too old to be full priced.

    Its a bummer that Nintendo creates such great games and gives them none of the respect they deserve. Not only that they did absolutely nothing to these ports, they are taking them off sale to create some needless scarcity for their own laughs. Gross, please don't buy this game

    Not sure why this release is worth $60, it's just a ROM dump of three old games with very little changes. Fans have made better attempts at Mario 64 HD for free.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Mario 3D all - stars game is a bit of a disappointment. I downloaded it recent on my switch and booted up the game. I loaded into Super Mario 64 and immediately noticed the game didn’t fit the switch’s screen. The camera controls are a bit wacky, and whenever you collect a star or die, all of the red coins reset and you are booted out of the painting. Then I tried Super Mario Sunshine. I collected Fludd, and got to cleaning up the graffiti, I somehow could not fighter out how to beat the boss of the level, and the controls are super different to the original game. Then, reluctantly I booted up Super Mari Galaxy, and found the controls were wacky and you can’t skip cutscenes in ANY of the games. My favourite out of the 3 would be Super Mario 64. I give this game a 4/10, and don’t recommend buying it unless you have the money to spare. My advice: read reviews before you buy the game.… Expand

    If you really want to play these games just use an emulator. project 64 can play mario 64 and the dolphin emulator can play sunshine and galaxy 1 and 2! for free.

    The classic games have been ported over to the Nintendo Switch with upscaled graphics. The old controls feel clunky compared to modern gaming standards, but if you already love these games, this makes for a great purchase.
