There is, but it's fairly unfulfilling. Not terrible like the Wii U one, but the single player leaves a lot to be desired. GH and GBA versions were the best.

FYI Carrion pre-orders close on 08/21 12PM central. It's $40 but you also get a code for USA eshop as well.

It totally gives off a NES Advantage vibe.

Edit: Speaking of Nintendo, Someone pointed out to me that with the annoucment of Pikmin 3 for the Switch, Nintendo pulled the digital version of the game off the Wii U eshop at around the same time it was announced. They apparently did this for Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze as well. Both games on the Wii U eshop were twenty bucks each so I guess Nintendo didn't want people buying those older games at a much lower price.

That's the kinda crap I wish Nintendo would stop doing. It's not like many people own a Wii U compared to the Switch's install base.

that would make a good retropi stick if there was an analog toggle.

Calling it now that Shroom is gonna get that Game & Watch unit before any of us.

Edit: Just finished watching it. Holy shit Nintendo just whipped their dicks out with all this. I admit it, I'll buy the Super Mario 3D Allstars. The fact they're optimizing Mario 64, Sunshine and Galaxy for the Switch is a no brainer.

This will be the 1st time Sunshine has had an official release since the Gamecube version right?

Collection is redundant unless you like playing on the go. When I first heard the rumor of this I thought they would've added new content much like in Super Mario 64 DS. Instead it is just low hanging fruit ports.

-Mario 64 has been ported to the PC in widescreen, HD upgrade, 60 fps, and even has online capabilities.
-Mario Sunshine/Galaxy same shit except on Dolphin
-No Mario Galaxy 2 lol
-limited release

The mario kart live seems pretty cool. The mario 35 battle is literally their version of Super Mario Bros Battle Royale which they DMCA'd. Very original.

I'm into this. I'll get that Game & Watch for sure. And I've always wanted to play that Mario Cat game but didn't want to buy a Wii U. The 3D All-Stars collection...I wish it had Galaxy 2 for completeness' sake. But I've never even played Sunshine, so I'll probably get it.

a limited release for a mario title?

Yeah, very strange and pretty annoying, too. I'd rather wait until I have time to play this before I buy it. But I guess I'll have to buy it at launch. It could be Nintendo trying to hype up the releases and get on the "drop" bandwagon of 2010.
