Here is the game that had fans scratching their heads, not because of the choice of video games, in fact, fans have been requesting for either a sequel of Super Mario Sunshine or at least a port of the game, now they have a chance to play it again in Super Mario 3D All-Stars, the games included are Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy. The Game Collection will be available physically and digitally for a limited time (that is the one that caused confusion,) on September 18th and available until the end of March 2021.
