This isn’t much of a surprise, but Nintendo has confirmed Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 icons for Switch Online.

After it was just announced a few days ago, Nintendo has come out with a lengthy trailer for Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2. The seven-minute video covers both games specifically before covering new additions for the Nintendo Switch release. Note that the video is in Japanese, but an English version will likely come in later.
Here’s an overview of the game:

September 12: Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 are returning in a new collection. This launches on October 2, 2025.
The two titles will be sold together as a physical bundle. Both of these titles will be available individually on the Nintendo eShop as well.
These are largely the same games as they were on Wii. There are some extra bells and whistles though, including enhanced resolution, improved UI, Assist Mode, and new Storybook content.
On top of the above, new amiibo are coming in April. Here’s a look:

After it was announced yesterday, we have more details about Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 details. Information was posted on the official Japanese website.
Something that Nintendo initially mentioned is that new storybook content is in the works. We now know that new stories will be added to the book as you progress. Super Mario Galaxy contains a new chapter that continues the story from the Wii version. Meanwhile, Super Mario Galaxy 2 introduces a completely new picture book which has four chapters.

Nintendo has revealed the price for the just-announced Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2, and it turns out it’ll be quite a bit of cash. Fans will need to dole out $70 for the collection.
This is a bit surprising given what we saw with Super Mario 3D All-Stars. That package launched at $60, and included three games. You can argue that we’re now getting two Wii games instead of one, but it’s a tough sell.

Super Mario Galaxy can be purchased and downloaded straight onto a Wii U console via its internal memory or external hard drive. For some unknown reason, a small amount of those who opt for the latter option are experiencing issues with the game. Users on Nintendo’s tech support forums have reported problems with a black screen and crashing.
I can’t say why an external hard drive would cause such issues. On the bright side, downloading Galaxy 2 internally works perfectly.
