    Me parece una excelente colección, si se pudo mejorar, pero para mi me es suficiente, opino que la colección se pudo hacer mejor pero para mi me pareció muy buena, siempre quise jugar estos 3 títulos de mario y ahora puedo hacerlo en mi switch y con una mejor resolución.

    1. Artificially limited sell timeframe to create a higher demand.
    2. Barely touched roms.
    3. Full price.

    Just don't buy it! if you buy, you support this, and Nintendo will do it more often.

Ves, no es por se fan, pero estos jugos lo merecen por su calidad y su cantidad. Tal vez si, crash bandicoot hizo un mejor trabajo con su insane trilogy, y a mejor precio, pero ellos en realidad se estaban arriesgando ya que no pudes comparar a un Mario con un crash. Por popularidad mario le gana y de sobra y ellos saben que van a vender y tal vez por eso hicieron menos trabajo. Claro, hay cosas que Nintendo pudo haber hecho mejor, y eso no lo duden, pero es innegable que crash se esforzó lo máximo para asegurar ventas y aun asi bajaron el precio después de su salida. Que no hayan realizado grandes cambios en el Mario 64 es porque habían problemas técnicos al hacer la pantalla panoramica, incluso en los emuladores se notaba el poping y problemas que daban a entender que este juego no estaba hecho para jugarse en este formato, ya que en sus tiempos de salida tenian muchas limitaciones y hacian lo que fuera para reducir los requisitos del jugo. En cuanto a la remasterización, esto depende de cada quien, esto se debe a que el publico al que va dirigido este producto es a nostálgicos que realmente quieren revivir experiencias y jugarlo lo más cercano y legal a como era entonces (sin pagar la fortuna que valen los cartuchos o discos de las consolas respectivas, ya que son de colección básicamente). También va dirigido a los que nunca tuvieron la oportunidad de jugar estos juegos y hoy en día quieren vivir esas experiencias. Para concluir, si de verdad odias esta colección, tú no eres el público al que va dirigido, entonces vete a criticar este juego a donde de verdad te presten atención o a alguien de verdad le importe tu opinión, exprésala pero con argumentos y con respeto. Nota: si vas a ver a Amazon cuanto cuesta cada uno de estos juegos individualmente se te volverán las ganas de comprar esta colección en ves de pagar la fortuna que ahí se te ofrece pagar.

    One point for each game. This is such a lazy cash grab. There are 4k 60fps versions of Mario 64 in 16:9 and Nintendo gives us 720 30fps and 4:3 for an ANNIVERSARY edition game. People are starting to look at Nintendo differently and before it gets out of control they need to stop being so lazy.

These are 3 great, high quality games, 2 of them undisputed classics, well worth the price. For someone who skipped the era between Super Mario World and Odyssey, these 3 games are a joy to discover and a joy to play.

    Un juego de colección y pero, con la amenaza de "solo por tiempo limitado" Nintendo sabe como mojar a sus usuarios para que no se lo piensen dos veces y como dicen "TAKE MY MONEY"

    Como me gustaría poder subir imágenes para que vean que el juego lo tengo en físico, lo compre por colección y por que me salió con 40% de descuento en Liverpool pero realmente no tenia planeado comprarlo a los 70 dólares que es lo que cuestan aquí en México, esos juegos ya los disfrute en mi 64, GC y Wii pero maldita nostalgia, que lo único extra sea su música de manera digital cuando tienes varios medios como spootify o youtube para escuchar esa música, mínimo la colección de Megaman X te trae los 7 juegos, el arte conceptual y ese agregado especial de pelear contra los jefes, pero bueno, Nintendo es Nintendo y por eso hace lo que quiere    … Expand

    No widescreen for Mario 64. No way to turn off rumble. No way to disable inverted camera controls. Sunshine only runs at 30fps. No way to opt out of motion control in Galaxy. And they charge $60 for this? It's just three emulators... The games needed 2020 treatment..

    It has it's flaws, but it's a great collection of games, and anyone who has played the originals knows that there absolutely are improvements. These were never meant to be REMAKES.

    I think there's a lot of rose colored glasses here. I would suggest some of the salty people here to break out a GameCube and play Mario Sunshine on a 4:3 CRT and see if you still think they didn't fix anything.

    in particular looks so beautiful.

    But the point of criticism is that they have not made Super Mario 64 16: 9 and have not added / improved small things to the game. An example of this is that keeping up with the blue coins in Super Mario Sunshine is almost impossible. The camera in SMS isn't too good either.
    For Super Mario Galaxy, when you play with the Pro Controller, you have to shake hard before Mario makes his spin movement.

    The amount of work put into these ports is almost non-existent. At least they changed Sunshine to 16:9 but why not Mario 64? It looks ridiculous with it's huge black frame. And the camera controls of 64 are really weird because it's meant for the C-buttons on the N64 controller, not for an analogue stick. They could've at least changed that. The only good thing are the very short loading times.

    Three great games in a borderline inexcusably lazy collection at a price that could be forgiven with the inclusion of Galaxy 2, but its inexplicable absence makes it unjustifiable.

In my opinion, Nintendo does not respect either its works or its fans by doing so. It's a shame.… Expand

    These games are great, but the collection leaves much to be desired, due to the almost complete lack of new content, fixes due to which games in emulation may work incorrectly, and the price is too high.
    Come on Nintendo, you can do much better.

    Altogether incredibly underwhelming for what was supposed to be a big game celebrating Mario's history on 3D platforms. Not only is the collection inexplicably highly time-limited, it's missing a game (that being Super Mario Galaxy 2), and it's painfully obvious across the entire collection that Nintendo only put in the bare minimum amount of effort.

Not only is the collection inexplicably highly time-limited, it's missing a game (that being Super Mario Galaxy 2), and it's painfully obvious across the entire collection that Nintendo only put in the bare minimum amount of effort.

    Super Mario 64 being based on the bugfixed Shindo version released exclusively in Japan is not necessarily a bad thing, even if it does remove some of the game's most iconic glitches and exploits, but unlike Sunshine it's inexplicably still in 4:3 instead of 16:9 and features no meaningful adaptations or additions otherwise.

    Super Mario Galaxy meanwhile is fairly inoffensive for the most part except for the part where the game is literally unplayable on two of the three possible control schemes due to Nintendo's exceptionally poor handling of the matter of the cursor. Using the touch screen for the cursor during gameplay is massively impractical and aiming it with gyro on Pro controller is incredibly awkward. Playing with Joycons feels more or less identical to playing the game as it was on the Wii, but of course comes with the caveat of drift.

    But the real reason for the massively critical score of TWO is Sunshine. Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy weren't handled well, but at least they aren't actively worse than their original versions.

    For those who don't know, in the original version on the GameCube, Sunshine had an interesting, obscure feature colloquially dubbed the 'shotgun spray' or 'spam spray'; by quickly and briefly pressing the R button fully and releasing, Mario would fire out a wide blast of water, which was excellent for clearing large areas of goop, dealing with certain problematic enemies (anyone who's played Sunshine likely has a good idea of what enemies I mean), and in general for just putting out a lot of water at once. This was an intended feature.

    This feature is absent in 3D All-Stars.

    The reason for this is pretty obvious; unlike the GameCube controller and literally every other modern console, the Switch does not feature analogue triggers, and as such this aspect of FLUDD's functionality would not be workable in its original capacity on Switch. Of course, the obvious flaw with this is the fact that every single Switch-compatible controller, with only two exceptions, has additional buttons that this functionality could easily have been assigned to instead. Or it could've been implemented as a combination of both spray buttons. Or it could've been implemented any number of other ways, likely very easily. But they didn't do anything like that. They just removed it.

    It's unbelievably obvious that Nintendo put the absolute bare minimum amount of effort into these ports- which are EMULATED, by the way, they're not even actual ports- if not less, and in doing so have actively taken away from one of the involved games. These are all widely-loved games that did not deserve this kind of treatment.

    I absolutely adore Galaxy, but if I could refund this game, I would. But, of course, it's Nintendo. No refunds for anyone.    … Expand

    M64 is as good a game as it ever was, and plays well with joy cons or a controller. Textures are a little hard on the eyes in 2020, but it's entirely unedited from the OG. Could have stood to have the extra stars/levels from SM64DS because it's biggest fault was DS controls, but again, they didn't do anything but the bare minimum here.

    I originally was going to say the controls in Sunshine were done poorly, but after talking to someone who played the original game that's just how they were. 40 sprites in and I'm glad I missed this on Gamecube. (Also I genuinely have a hate on for whoever designed the underwater movement, it's like someone said how can we make this not fun and as frustrating and nonsensical as possible).

    Galaxy gets the overall samesies, though having spin attack assigned to a button over motion controls is probably the one improvement that this collection has over the original game. Definitely play it docked though, tilting the switch for motion controls or using the touchscreen to collect star bits isn't ideal.

    If you haven't played one or more of the games included and don't have another way to easily play them it's worth picking up, but calling it an All-Stars collection is a misnomer especially since they did it right with the original All-Stars.    … Expand

I can't defend the absence of special features, nor the decisions to emulate the games rather than port /remaster/rebuild them. On the other hand, Nintendo is under no obligation to release any of this, and as someone who missed out on Mario Sunshine and Galaxy in their first release, I'm very happy to play them on the go and in high definition at home.
