I really, really hope you're right.
I wish I believed, but they never even made Four Swords Anniversary a commercial release. It was free for a little while, then that was it. So there's precedent here.

I really, really hope you're right.
I'm hoping it'll be like Tetris 99 which was only available for NSO subscribers for a while until a retail version was released a couple of months later. The limited availability for 3D All Stars is weird, but I've never played 64 or Sunshine so I'm grabbing that collection as soon as I can.Wait, the Mario Battle Royale is a limited release? As in, after March, we won't be able to play it anymore? Whut
I've just realized that I'm probably lying to myself here. If there's any chance that these games actually disappear after the window to buy the collection is gone then I'll be super mad, so I'm probably going to pony up while I have the chance. God damn it, Nintendo.I won't get the collection at launch
The English text there says "compatible with 2 Joy-Cons controllers" which could mean either "must play with detached Joy-Cons" or "can also play with detached Joy-Cons." But the Japanese text for the same portion would definitely only mean "can also play with detached Joy-Cons," so presumably the latter interpretation is correct.
They're just emphasizing the ability to play it in a way that approximates Wiimotes, not saying it's the only way to play.
In any case, I'll be buying this. There's also apparently a Super Mario Bros Game & Watch which I also want because I'm fucking stupid.
Yeah, the more I think about this, the more I have to admit it's a real possibility that the games won't ever be available again on Switch after March 2021. And that really pisses me off! It's a shitty way to treat Mario and it's a shitty way to treat their fans and I'm almost certainly going to fall for it.I think it's a little funny that even after announcing that there is a limited window during which Nintendo will deign to allow you to buy this collection that people are still speculating that Nintendo couldn't possibly do some other thing that seems weird to them.
Maybe Galaxy 2 will also come out, and maybe they will sell these as singles later. I have no idea. But yesterday if someone told you that the collection would only be available for a limited time even digitally you would probably think that was absurd too.
Oh I hope they don't have a billion hoops to get the Game & Watch.
They damn well better, but because this is Nintendo, it's not something we can count on.Put me on team "they're gonna sell these individually on the eShop for more than $20 after next March."
And yeah, hope they add Galaxy 2 in some capacity eventually, but I'm stoked on it as-is.
