Among Nintendo's most revered classics is "Super Mario All-Stars," a Super Nintendo game that collected a variety of NES "Super Mario Bros." games into a combined package with updated visuals.
With "Super Mario 3D All-Stars," Nintendo is doing that once again: The game, which launches for the Nintendo Switch on September 18, combines a trio of classic 3D "Super Mario" titles. It includes "Super Mario 64" from the Nintendo 64, "Super Mario Sunshine" from the Nintendo GameCube, and "Super Mario Galaxy" from the Nintendo Wii.
Better still: Each of the games is getting "optimized" visuals, which ups the resolution and smooths out the gameplay, according to Nintendo.
In a very Nintendo twist, physical copies of the game are only available for a limited time. "A limited production of 'Super Mario 3D All-Stars' launches exclusively for the Nintendo Switch family of systems on Sept. 18," the company said, "and will be available until approximately March 31, 2021."
