2001: A Mario Odyssey

They're not porting 3D World.

It's the Wii U's flagship 3D Mario, they're not gonna do it.

Nintendo products certainly can compete with each other. If you get a copy of a Nintendo game, you don't automatically get the other one as well.

True, but Nintendo doesn't care. Either way, they earn money. So it doesn't really affect Nintendo at all if their games compete against each other.

Super Mario 64 DS exists.
 
You know... to begin with, Super Mario 64 was the first 3D Mario... and it did somewhat lack content, maybe, so maybe for that they ported it? I know that they did add some stuff in the DS version...

And... umm...

But wait, my entire argument falls flat in front of my previous statement here...

Still, I don't think they are porting it, I just have that feeling.

They'd have to put some serious elbow grease into it (defeating the whole purpose of the ports in the first place). GamePad Assist would have to be removed, and new control schemes for GamePad levels (like Puffprod Peaks and Hands-On Hall) would have to be created. Obviously, removing precise touch controls for the Switch was not a smart move.
 
Captain Toad Treasure Tracker has that motion controlled cursor though, for those "touch" levels. Maybe they could do something like that.

Hey look, I made it look easier to make a port now!

They do care. They're still being choosy to show certain games on their E3 just so other games won't get overshadowed. I don't think Nintendo as a company gets all its share of money too. Nintendo has many different teams as well as third party developers, it's not like they get the money if a game they didn't develop gets sales.

Super Mario 64 DS is a remake, not a port. It had a timespan of June 1996 - November 2004, so ~7.5-8 years. Super Mario 3D World has been out since November 2013. We're not quite there yet in terms of timespan.

I agree. Every console have its "flagship Mario" as you call it. For the Wii it's Galaxy, for the Wii U it's SM3W, and for the Switch it's Odyssey. It will be foolish to port these games.
 
If they don't care about how their IP does if Nintendo products theoretically didn't compete with each other, then we might have a new F-Zero by now...
 
I’m gonna say this...that ending is up there with Assassin’s Creed 3, Bubsy 3D, Mass Effect 3, and No Man’s Sky as one of my least favorite endings to a video game. I HATED that ending! I mean for a Mario game with such high production value, and incredible visuals, I’d expect the ending to be sweet and heartfelt...then it gives you the middle finger and it turns into a fucking Popeye cartoon!
 
Tbh I wouldnt mind ports if they didnt cost 60 dlls.
I wish that Nintendo started doing Virtual Console but on their favor.

Sell 10 dlls the Wii version Super Mario All Stars + SMW.
Sell at 20 dlls Paper Mario + Paper Mario TTYD
Sell at 30 dlls Super Mario 64 + Super Mario Sunshine
Sell at 80 dlls Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2

That way almost every Mario game would be on the Switch, and that way Nintendo would earn more money on it.

(The reason of the high price on the Galaxy is because they would need to rework the Cursor/Motion Controls, making an excuse to make us pay more)
