Yeh I havent got to the town hall stage yet either, so hopefully the games picks up a bit from that point. I just am finding it a bit grindy atm, being forced to craft certain items to progress in the game.
Same, I'm especially annoyed at the low durability of the second tier tools. I'm starting to think, when chopping for wood, to buy two or three flimsy axes, rather than waste an iron on the stone axe.

Mario 64, Sunshine and Galaxy is coming to Switch in one package! Also Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury! And a new 35-player battle royale Mario game. Yeah. Of course. And... Game & Watch Mario? And RC Mario Kart which is also an AR GAME? Look, just watch the video, there's too much crazy shit for me to cover here.

I'm pretty unhappy with the Mario 64/Sunshine/Galaxy release being time-limited even digitally. They really want to force people to get it at full price by manufacturing scarcity.

Time-limited? Really? FFS Nintendo

The whole time limited thing really puts a damper on the whole affair.
Still, SUPER MARIO 3D WORLD! I've never played it before, and it looks fun enough to buy at full price.
...is it fun enough to buy at full price?

It is a great game that I've been enjoying a lot on cemu and that I will probably buy.
But damn, every time that Nintendo show a tiny amount of goodwill towards something that everyone was clamoring for, they do it in the most contrived and hostile way possible. Not having a true virtual console on the Switch is a shitty move that enables them to sell a full-price bundle of random games. It's not really "all-stars" without galaxy 2 or 3D land now is it? They may be part of another bundle or more likely just forgotten.
I really wanted to play older Mario games on the Switch, especially Sunshine, but I will not be buying this.

I really don't get the "time limited" thing. Sure, they'll gain some sales by people rushing out to buy it full price, but aren't they losing so much more by not having it available for more than 6 months?
Maybe they just mean the games packaged together is a limited time thing, and then after that you can buy them individually. I don't know, it's just kind of weird.

In the long term? Maybe. The artificial scarcity of NES Mini and the Amiibo plastic shit toys created a huge demand for them from panic buyers a few years back. It's a strategy that clearly works for them.

Mario Golf looks good. I'm replaying Golf Story right now, so I might be in the mood for a meatier 3D golfing experience.
Stubbs the Zombie? Whoa. I never actually played it back then, only the demo, so I might be up for this. I hope they still have the rights to all the great songs on the soundtrack. :)
Ninja Gaiden Trilogy, eh? MmmmMMM!
Zelda: Skyward Sword! Yes, I might be into that. Glad to hear it's playable with regular gamepad controls as well.
