Anyone else been seeing the the memes about how Nintendo didn't improve anything in Super Mario 64?
I find it funny how people don't seem to understand the difference between a remaster and a compilation.
it isn't about it being the same
if where talking crash and spyro, not only are these a collection of 3 games each like mario, it's price is 40$ each with updated visuals aka an actual reason for original owners to get this compilation
In mario's case
It's price is 60$ for 3 ports
People understand the difference but they expected a lower price because these are 3 old games with barely and differences applied to them, people expected a lower price for just 3 ports. especially if you compare it to spyro and crash collection wich have the same amount of games while all 3 are with updated visuals and for a lower price.
The Grass looks pretty green on the other side.
I will say though them 3d mario games are a few tiers above spyro and crash, but The people do have a point old games overall and 60$ that's a pretty high price Mario galaxy is 20 or 10$ in the wii u eshop, mario 64 was 10$ it's only sunshine really.
The removal of the backwards longjump and the gay (supposdely king) bowser quote are just the icing on the cake with the newer japanese version of the game, Mario sunshine also laggs analgue gamecube controller support wich means fludd might be trash to control compared to the original.
3 times in a row that nintendo dropped gamecube controller support for notable games. seriously. first windwaker, than twilight princess and now sunshine in wich it at least is partially working. anologue triggers will be a massive issue for sunshine and it will make speedrunning way less fun
Sunshine is the most fun game in the series for speedruns. shame really.
The only main advantage is wide screen for sunshine because it's grapics are barely an improvement, logical since these are ports. but they could have at least kept the glitches in plus wide screen mario 64. wich is pretty normal in emulation days for not only mario 64 but also ocarina of time and such.
If you already own the originals, for most not a reason to get these. the grapical differences are small aside from widescreen for sunshine and some really minor texture upgrades.
Portability is also nice, but the removal of some iconic stuff + gamecube controller support and analogue triggers just doesn't feel right.
Again if you look at the other examples for less money it does seem a bit dissapointing, spyro and crash are definitely lower quality games but the people do have a point.
