  • Gaming anniversaries are really important when it comes to celebrating the legacy of a video game whether big or small. Brandon checks out two of Nintendo’s biggest anniversary collections, Super Mario All Stars for Mario’s 25th anniversary and Kirby’s Dream Collection for Kirby’s 20th anniversary. Both were released very close to one another and were made to celebrate gaming's biggest franchises. One of them is the best anniversary collection ever put forth by a gaming company and one of them is one of the worst. Find out which one is the best and which one is the worst...okay its Super Mario All Stars....that’s the worst.

    My theory as to why Dream Collection completely avoids the Nintendo anniversary curse is that HAL Labs (the devs behind the Kirby games) are a seperate company from Nintendo. They are not forced to follow the same business decisions and thus can put genuine effort in making good anniversary stuff.

    >Why was Mario's celebration half-baked versus Kirby's being one of the best?
    Simple: Kirby isn't in-house. Kirby is handled by HAL, which isn't Nintendo proper. That, and Nintendo has been slowly ironing out the wrinkles of Mario's character over the years, whereas HAL has embraced fanservice to a massive extent.

    That statement on how Kirby’s Dream Collection that not only does it show you what fans love, but that it makes you a fan; truer words couldn’t be said! When I first got the collection; I got it simply because of Kirby’s inclusion in Smash. I wasn’t all too familiar with the little guy and so after buying KDC and Kirby’s Return to Dreamland a week later; I was insanely hooked and became a Kirby fan BECAUSE of Kirby’s Dream Collection. It’s still the pinnacle of any complication of games I’ve seen in a long time

      Yes i remember getting home from summer camp in 2014, my mom, my older brother and my sister-in-law wanted to take me out to eat and to get some games. I was at GameStop that night and I saw Kirby's dream collection, now my older brother tries to dissuade me from getting the game by offering me other games like donkey Kong and Zelda, but I made up my mind got the game and I never regretted it since. The dream collection was awesome. I lost the original game but I have all six games on an emulator now.

Super Mario Galaxy, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 3D Land, New Super Mario Bros. 2, New Super Mario Bros.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 came out in 2010, and so did Mario vs Donkey Kong for the DS. In 2015 there was Mario Party Wii, and especially in 2020, Super Mario All-Stars 3D Which was THE BEST anniversary game YET, and that JUST happened two years ago. So there was no good reason for you to forget that one especially.

      It doesn’t help either that Nintendo, even without her stereotypically feminine voice of the early 21st Century (1999 with Mario Golf 64 - onwards) present didn’t give give Peach more personality than just a (pretend) helpless damsel in distress.

    There is one advantage the Mario All Stars Wii port has over Kirby's Dream Collection... the Mario collection actually came out in PAL territories. I'm still bitter that I couldn't get the Kirby's Dream Collection; was super looking forward to it and I love the in-game history museum you show off at 11:32. It also came as quite a shock to me when Magolor was suddenly a 'redeemed' character given that part of Kirby's story is covered in Kirby's Dream Collection.
    Great jokes and coverage by the way. I never knew that the Mario CD included included just a bunch of sound effects. So much of that Mario collection was truly baffling.

  • @CloudySkies17695
    @CloudySkies17695 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I think the main discrepency between the Kirby and Mario collections is that HAL is very consistent with quality when it comes to their games. Kirby's already no stranger to looking at things in the past, especially in modern titles. Kirby is a franchise that oozes loves and dedication, and the Dream Collection shows this in absolute spades. Mario's just Mario. Being what is basically the face of Nintendo, just having his name slapped on something is going to make it sell. It's honestly disappointing, especially because I know they can do better. And yet, here we are. It's just that extra bit of effort that could turn a collection from a somewhat convient package to play older games, to something more than that.

    12:46 - Nintendo didn't work on Kirby's Dream Collection, it's Hal Laboratory who are a known developer for making Kirby, Mother and also other games, just like GameFreak with Pokemon (and sometimes there would be third party devs like Bandai Namco that make games like New Pokemon Snap or Star Fox Assault.)

Some bio history. Some cool clips. All in one beautiful package. The issue is that they got the ROM from a SNES game .... Put it on a Wii disc ... And sold it for full price. Bro. It's not about the games. That's just lazy. SNES games "themselves" is not the problem. Nintendo had an opportunity to make a nice legit collection .... But they didn't. That's the point bro.

    This was a great video! Really unfortunate how nintendo chooses to celebrate mario's major anniversaries, with the only cool one in recent memory being the release of the first Super Mario Maker. Also, I think a big reason as to the difference in quality between the two collections is the developers. Super Mario Allstars was cobbled together inhouse at nintendo. Meanwhile, Kirby's Dream Collection was made (with love) by the people over at HAL. Maybe nintendo didn't have a team to handle doing a full collection, or they were just lazy, but evidently HAL cares a lot for Kirby and went all out for his collection.

    This is the first video I watched on your channel, and I really like it a lot! I agree with all of your points, and your humor was perfect! I wouldn't have agreed with you back in 2010, as I had never played Super Mario All-Stars, having never owned an SNES, so it was very much like a "new collection," but after playing Kirby's Dream Collection, I can never go back to the Mario collections.
    Personally, I'm really glad that 3D All-Stars came with the soundtracks of the games, as it lets me show them to my friends without needing the Internet, but I would still agree that Nintendo could have done far better!
    Keep up the great work!

    Honestly, I appreciate the fact that the Wii port of Super Mario All-Stars exists. Is it a cheap cop-out? Sure. Is it a MASSIVE waste of unutilized disc space for it to contain an SNES emulator running a single ROM and literally nothing else? Definitely. However, I was in anticipation of Super Mario All-Stars eventually getting released on the Virtual Console. Over the years, it seemed like this (actually pretty fantastic) remake collection was being forgotten in favor of the 8-bit originals seeing more re-releases (also, god knows All-Stars itself could use an update to at least bring it out of the realm of battery back-ups). It may be ridiculously over-priced compared to an average Virtual Console release, but I finally got to have it on an (at the time) modern console, so I can't fully hate it. Also, in retrospect, giving this thing a physical release may've turned out to be a blessing in disguise when you consider that this game can still be easily gotten secondhand. This is especially crucial now that we're living in an era where the Wii Shopping Channel has shut down (and WiiU and 3DS are soon to lose their eShops as well). All-Stars may be available on Switch Online, but that glorified rental service just isn't the same as Virtual Console.

    super mario all stars wii is what game companies sell as "preservation", while Kirby's Dream Collection is what preservation actually is. Mega Man Legacy Collection and SNK 40th Anniversary Collection are others that hold up and preserve gaming history while celebrating their series. A game isn't JUST a ROM slapped into a just okay emulator, it's also the art and the magazine articles and the manual and the advertising.

    To me the best collection Nintendo has done was either the Zelda Collection on GameCube (which had a SUPER limited release but came with Zelda 1 and 2 with fixed translations, and also included Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and a 30 minute Demo for Wind Waker and some promo videos. At the time if you had this collection it basically made it so that you could now play every Zelda game in existence to that point on the GameCube in some way. ) or Super Mario All-Stars on SNES which at the time was just such an awesome amount of content for one cartridge.

    My idea for a Mario collection. Super Mario 2D Legacy:
    Mario's Super Arcade(Games):

    -New Super Mario Bros.
    Features:
    -8 classic games.
    -Classic Mode and Modern Mode. Classic mode is the same game with the 4:3 stuff, but modern mode is a remastered version of the classics with no lives, the ability to save anywhere, and a 16:9 aspect ratio.
    -A rewind feature only in classic mode.
    -Save states.
    -Some tweaking on Mario Vs Luigi and Minigames from NSMB to make them optimized for this collection(And hopefully new stuff like 4 player and about a few new stages in Mario Vs Luigi.
    Mario's Movie Theatre(Videos):
    -5 episodes from Super Mario Bros Super Show(Examples: The Bird, The Bird, Toad Warrior, Robo Koopa).
    -5 episodes from Adventures Of Super Mario Bros 3(Examples: Sneaky Giant Lying Ninja Koopas, Crimes R Us, Super Koopa).
    -5 episodes from Super Mario World(Examples: Fire Sale, Rock TV, Mama Luigi).
    -Commercials(American and Japanese).
    -How to draw Mario.
    -History of Mario.
    Museum Of Mario(Art Gallery, Music And Information):
    -Box Art(American and Japanese)
    -Sprites.
    -Concept Art.
    -Character Summaries.
    -Game Manuals.
    -Listen to music of the games, as well as some special remastered versions of the music.
    Mario's Options Lab(Settings):
    -Crt filters.
    -Option for DS screen placement in NSMB.
    -Optional borders based off the characters, console or games.
    -You can choose to have a rewind feature or not.
    -Mappable controls.
    Mario's Mission Mania(Missions):
    -Various missions based on the Games.
    -Each mission is categorized in games(Missions based off NSMB are in NSMB genre, and SMB3 missions are in SMB3 genre).
    -There's a boss rush mission for every game.
    -Missions include time trial, enemy rush, and more.
    -Missions can maybe unlock content.

    As a Kirby fan who, even at 12, played all but one of the games present in Dream Collection, the Copy Ability Challenges was actually where I spent the most time. The game kind of undersells that it's not content completely lifted from Kirby's Return to Dream Land: though it's on the same engine, all the challenges are brand new, and there's even a returning ability that wasn't in Return to Dream Land! I really appreciate how HAL went the extra mile to create something unique to the collection for existing fans, who likely would've bought it anyway because of everything *else* it included. I certainly would have.
    Though I have unfortunately haven't kept track of that art book in the ten years that have passed, I really loved that reading that thing as a kid, and to this day I think there's information in there that still hasn't been documented online (aside from scans, I suppose).

    The great thing about modern gaming hardware is that you can play games from 1993 but with added loading times since cartridges didn't have loading times. The most beautiful era of gaming was 2000-2015 when nobody knew how to make 3D graphics look good, we forgot that games used to run at 60fps and started playing at 10fps, and had those amazing loading times too. If you think we got an old-fashioned gaming experience in the 80's and 90's, those 2000's kids got an even more outdated experience.

    Super Mario All-Stars was fantastic back when it was originally released for the SNES. Remastered compilations for Nintendo consoles weren't really a thing back then and then here's one that had every game in the main Super Mario Bros. series at the time except for Super Mario World (which it didn't really need since that one came with the SNES) with updated graphics, sound and quality of life features like the ability to save. Moreover, it had a game that never got a US release at a time when something like that was hard to come by and it all cost as much as a single new game. I can see why it wouldn't be as exciting in 2010, though.

  • @lucaslucas2933

    What probably happened with the Mario 25th anniversary was that the main controller they probably assumed at least everyone would have is the Wii remote and maybe the nunchuck. So they probably released it with that in mind, to try and make the game playable to as many people as possible.
    That said that’s terrible mental coping. I seriously wonder who in their right mind said: “hey this guy’s our mascot, why not spend little to no effort and port over a game from the 1990’s. The fans will love us.”

    On the other hand, HAL mostly cares about giving player's a good experience. They're more into growing and keeping their fandom, so their quality control is top-notch. Even their worst games aren't abysmal.

    while with the 25th anniversary all stars would say it could've been more and had no excuse not using super mario world/maker being a better anniversary title i hate 3d all stars and think it's way worse with how much it could've added like interviews,sketches/artwork,animated shorts or just more to celebrate mario better outside twitter and an awesome theme.
    as it was a extremely lazy cashgrab,had a stupid deadline only good for memes and kinda showed how outside odyssey/mario party superstars/luigi's mansion 3 how lacking mario's in a few areas of the switch compared to other nintendo collections with it just being sad it's twitter celebrates mario's 35th way better.(& makes me wish we saw collections with the spinoff's,party,kart,rpg's & sports games instead or even a rerelease of the old anime movie with the games actors.:3)
