PSA: Super Mario 3D All-Stars will no longer be available on Nintendo Switch
Super Mario 3D All-Stars for Nintendo Switch includes ports of Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario Galaxy, and Super Mario 64 in one fun package. However, if you haven't purchased Super Mario 3D All-Stars yet, but still want to, you'll need to move extremely quickly. After March 31, these games will be removed from the Nintendo Switch eShop, while no additional physical copies of the game will be produced. Super Mario 3D All-Stars isn't the only title to miss out on either. Super Mario Bros. 35 is also being removed from the Nintendo Switch eShop, you might want to grab it before it's gone forever.

Why are they disappearing? Good question

If you're looking for a solid explanation for why this is happening... there really isn't one. Nintendo's comments were limited to saying that it was a limited-time celebration of Mario's 35th birthday. As a result, the internet began jokingly referring to March 31 as the day Mario died. It should be noted that if you purchased the game digitally, you will be able to continue downloading it again even after March 31. Looking ahead, later in the year, more Nintendo remasters are on the way, with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword confirmed with a release date of July 16, 2021. Meanwhile, credible rumors indicate that Wind Waker and Twilight Sword will also be ported to Nintendo Switch later this year. Our Super Mario 3D All-Stars review revealed that while this is a nice collection of titles, the games certainly could have used more polish and refinement to make them more enjoyable on a modern platform.
