Super Mario 3D All-Stars, the bundled Switch collection of Nintendo’s first three 3D Mario games, is finally getting inverted camera controls. According to a tweet from Nintendo of America, an update on November 16 will add camera customisation to all three rereleases: Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy.

According to the announcement, you’ll be to tweak these settings on a per-game basis. For all of them, you’ll be able to flip the horizontal camera in addition to the horizontal and vertical Mario cameras. Sunshine will have the most granular options of the bunch, with a setting that even tweaks Mario’s snazzy F.L.U.D.D. backpack. It’s unclear if you’ll be able to set the standard, game-agnostic camera controls universally from, say, the main menu. (Kotaku has reached out to Nintendo for clarification.)
Super Mario 3D All-Stars will be on sale via the Nintendo eShop until March 31, 2021. No word yet on if Super Mario Galaxy 2 will join the collection in the 11th hour.
Finally, sanity has come to the Mario galaxy.
I bought Mario All stars on day one, but refused to play it till the inverted controls option was available. Now that date is in the middle of New console launches and won’t be able to play Mario’s for another 1-2 months.
Did they add GameCube controller support for Sunshine?
