What We Know About Super Mario Galaxy and Galaxy 2 on Nintendo Switch
Today’s Nintendo Direct revealed our first glimpse of the upcoming combined pack for Nintendo Switch, which includes Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. While Super Mario Galaxy was previously part of the Super Mario 3D All-Stars compilation, it is now being offered as a separate purchase on the Nintendo eShop. This standalone version will also be included in a bundle with the newly released Nintendo Switch port of Super Mario Galaxy 2. Interestingly, these games are designed to work not just on the original Nintendo Switch but also on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
The updated edition of “Super Mario Galaxy 2” includes fresh chapters from Rosalina’s storybook as part of the game’s release. Additionally, two new Amiibo figures based on characters from the original “Super Mario Galaxy” – namely Mario and Rosalina – will become available. These toys are set to debut on April 2nd. Alongside these new Amiibo, a tangible, real-world version of Rosalina’s storybook can be purchased separately as well.
Starting October 2nd, you’ll also have the option to buy each game separately from the Nintendo eShop: Super Mario Galaxy 2 and the new Switch version of Super Mario Galaxy. However, as of now, the price for the two-game bundle hasn’t been disclosed yet.
