To celebrate 35 years of the Mario franchise, Nintendo released a 15-minute Direct featuring the various games and events that will come between now and Spring 2021. This includes long-awaited versions of Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy, alongside a new Mario battle royale!

Everything revealed during the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary Direct

While rumoured for quite some time, Nintendo has been silent on its plans for its Mario 35th Anniversary celebrations.

However, without much warning, the Japanese firm dropped a "Mario Direct" on the official YouTube channel, and there are several iconic games in the series soon to be released on Nintendo Switch.

These aren't necessarily remakes, but ports of the original titles, optimised for use on Nintendo Switch.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars

Let's start with the announcement that many fans have been waiting for — a compilation of Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario 64 will be released on September 18 for Nintendo Switch.

These are optimized versions of the games — in addition to having higher resolutions than their original versions, the games have been optimized for a smoother gaming experience on Nintendo Switch.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars also includes a jukebox mode so fans can listen to the soundtracks from all three games. Players can also listen to music on their Nintendo Switch console when the screen is off.

In true Nintendo style, this announcement came with a catch — Super Mario 3D All-Stars will only be available to purchase until March 31, 2021.

After this date you will still be able to play Super Mario 3D All-Start, but it will disappear from both physical stores and the Nintendo eShop.
