The editors liked
Three classic 3D games
Varied gameplay
Decent value
Excellent soundtracks
Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy are exceptional
Timeless games
Galaxy still looks great
Fascinating to experience the evolution of 3D Mario games in one package
Wonderfully remastered
Super Mario Galaxy is one of the most fun games ever made
A great excuse to explore Mario 3D classics - whether you're new to them or revisiting
A lovely celebration of Mario's history
Just enough modernization to feel fresh
Soundtracks are a nice touch
Three excellent platformers remastered for a new audience
Improved performance and visuals really pop on a modern display
Aside from a few fumbles
All games have aged incredibly well
Mario's legacy is finally being cemented on Nintendo Switc
Fantastic to play through the games again or from new
Super Mario Galaxy aged really well in terms of visuals and how to progress story
The editors didn't like
Awkward touch controls
Inconsistent localization
Can't skip cutscenes
Galaxy 2 isn't here
Almost nothing new and few bonus features for series veterans
The games are barely remastered
Camera issues in the first two games remain
Galaxy is awkward to play in handheld
No Super Mario Galaxy 2 as part of the package
Super Mario 64 shows its age
It's a time-limited package release (individual titles available on Nintendo eShop at later date)
Control schemes don't always work the way you want
I miss Galaxy 2
Super Mario Sunshine has some odd technical issues
Motion control puzzles feel outdated and frustrating in 2020
Some issues with controls for games. Super Mario Galaxy in particular
Not much effort in terms of extras for a collection

All three games are still a ton of fun to play, SM64, Sunshine, and Galaxy all look good on Switch
Severely lacking in bonus content, Improvements are light for the most part, No Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 64's camera is still awful
I'm honestly very conflicted about Super Mario 3D All-Stars. On the one hand, we get a compilation that probably deserves a 5/10 for effort – the games run well and look good, but Nintendo very clearly did the bare minimum in bringing these games over to...
Abstract: I think 2D Mario will always be *my* iconic Mario experience, considering I grew up on the old NES and SNES releases, but for a very large group of fans, when they think about Super Mario, it's likely they're a bit more nostalgic for Super Mario 64. And f...

Competent ports, Full soundtracks included, Can play on the go
None of the games are fully remastered, Doesn't feel special
It's tough because you should play the games, but this collection is only a must-have if you've never played them or have no means of playing the copies you own. Otherwise, the included soundtracks are not enough to make this 35th anniversary package feel...

Abstract: Super Mario 3D All-Stars is now available on Nintendo Switch. The collection is a limited-time release; physical and digital editions will only be on sale until March 31, 2021, after which point it will no longer be available from retailers or the Nintend...
Abstract: Anyone who says “you can't go home again” obviously never played a Mario game.My history with the Mario games isn't a secret. As soon as I could hold a controller I was transfixed, especially when jumping. Unlike in Castlevania or Street Fighter, jump...
Enhanced textures in Mario 64, New control options for Mario Galaxy, Resolution upgrades across the board, Three amazing games that have aged surprisingly well, Widescreen support for Mario Sunshine
Old bugs still remain, Some elements haven't aged as well as others, Upgrades are largely surface level
Impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.How we score: The Destructoid reviews guide...

Three of the best 3D platformers of all time, Each game is the best official version released, Upgraded controls, Improved textures
Okay but seriously, no Galaxy 2 or 3D Land
Super Mario 3D All-Stars contains three legendary games, and this package allows you to experience all of them, the way you remember them. Whether or not these games hold up as competitive, contemporary pieces of entertainment is one question, but they do...
