Nintendo has finally announced Super Mario 3D All-Stars to celebrate Mario's 35th Anniversary.

And one of the big games arriving with it is the 2007 classic Super Mario Galaxy.

Nintendo took the familiar Mario format and took it to a different planet - literally.

With enhanced graphics, we're hoping this fan favourite will live up to its memory.

A release date is set for September 18th 2020!

The game will be available on the Nintendo Switch only.

The game is only available for a limited time and will expire in March 2021.

Original Report

Back during the beginning of April, a report surfaced from VGC and a follow-up report from Eurogamer, which outlined some details regarding the remakes of certain Nintendo games. 

According to the official report which can be found here, VGC claims that:

"these remasters will include 1997’s Super Mario 64, 2002’s Super Mario Sunshine and 2007’s Super Mario Galaxy."

So it appears Nintendo is going all out for their 35 birthday, and this may also be in large part due to the on-going global pandemic. Perhaps Nintendo is filling the void that they originally had with other first-party titles, but are being forced to delay them.
