Review on Unleash Nostalgia with Super Mario 3D All-Stars on Nintendo Switch! by Zachary Ester

I only know Mario 1-4 and Odyssey and a few other 2D games in the series. I love old games and platinum Meat Boy, Sekiro and almost Death Stranding so I'm used to hard and frustrating but holy cow 64 and Sunshine needs BAD Quality of Life upgrades. Played a bit of Mario 64 and had to stop because the camera is just awful and never gets old. Unless you're already very familiar, I just don't see anyone enjoying it unless you REALLY like some clunky 3D platformers. I have 33 stars in Sunshine and getting thrown into the main zone every time you die is such a tedious process that I'm already fed up with it. L1 brings up a map with a 3 second animation that opens and closes every time you accidentally click on it while trying to do a long jump or something. So I tend to fall to my death expecting hoverplanes to be permanently outfitted, but no. This is by far the most adorable 3D Mario I've ever played, but it's gross. Just launched Galaxy and it still has a Wii interface and you have to use motion controls to choose a save location and start the game. Changing my rating to 1 star, I hate it and will sell it once I'm bored of SunshineEdit*64, there's nothing I like better than just jumping through the castle, the levels just aren't fun. Got 83 stars in Sunshine and not worried about the last 2 red coin missions. It's a buggy, untested game with a lot of charm, but overall, aside from the aesthetics, it sucks. Every problem I listed bugged me throughout the playthrough. Also anything related to Yoshi is bad. Feed him, immovable egg, respawn place, death in water and i think he will just explode when his fruit meter runs out? To be honest I don't understand why they brought him into the game in the first place. at high tide it is simply superfluous, he jumps a little higher and splashes with water. Cold. The galaxy is strange. Glitter collecting sucks and it has the worst camera ever, the touchscreen sucks, the button prompts are big wobbly joysticks and the launch is awful. But once I started crawling on the giant bee it got a lot better. I might like that, not sure yet
