Nah, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy are all in the contest already, and I don't think the new game changes anything about them too dramatically.

Not to mention SM3DA is a poor and utterly lazy collection.

I would say it's a very good lazy collection.

The games themselves are good. The presentation and effort is bad.
Nintendo don't deserve credit for simply dumping three roms on a cart and running them in HD/16:9. They also don't deserve credit for charging $60 or releasing it for a limited run of 6 months, even digitally wtf.

I agree with all that, just to me a bad collection would be games that were not well optimized or didn't play well in the collection. These games all play and control great. I also like the presentation - the little graphics as a game loads, the classy font on the main menu.

It's just so barebones. No wide screen in 64 is a bummer, and no galaxy 2 is a bummer. Would have also been nice for them to adjust the way blue coins work in sunshine and other QOL stuff.
