Nintendo already turned Tetris into a Battle Royale with Tetris 99 when Switch Online first launched. Super Mario Bros. 35 turns the original game into an all-out battle with 35 players competing to be the last Mario standing. Everyone plays their own level, but when you defeat an enemy, you send the koopas and goombas to the other players’ game. There is a catch though, the game is only going to be playable as long as the celebration lasts. After March 31st, 2021, you won’t be able to play so jump on it on October 1st when the game launches.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars 232e
The sequel to one of the best game compilations of all time. Super Mario 3D All-Stars packs Super Mario 64, Mario Sunshine, and Mario Galaxy in one package, some of the best 3D platformers ever made. The games will be playable at a high resolution, and silky smooth for 2020. There is a big catch though. Like the other All-Star collections before it, you can only grab this set before March 31st, 2021. What the plan is for fans who want to get their hands on these games after that has not been announced. It is a strange move for an otherwise stellar package.
