So chances are we'll get it in the Americas in December before christmas.

So, no price for Europe? That would give us an idea of the price here. My guess is $29.99-39.99.

@Canyarion: Why not both?

I have this cartridge for my SNES. It is pretty dope, but is well lame in this context. Mario deserved so much better for his 25th.

They could have easily added Super Mario World or Super Mario 64 to this collection...kind of a wasted opportunity. But I'll get it for the special stuff and because I don't have them on VC anyways.

I wonder if The Legend of Zelda will get something like this too for its 25th birthday next year.

No Super Mario World..? But, I remember that being on SMA? Smilie

SICK!!! Me want!! I hope this gets a US release. Smilie

After checking out the screens, I noticed Ninty added widescreen support for the SMC port, which is awesome. Smilie

I simply HAVE to have the epic extra goodies that are included, but I can't help but wish Ninty would release SMAS on VC instead, and the extra goodies separately (say as part of Club Nintendo). SMAS being on a disc while all the other Mario classics being on VC is going to drive my OCD NUTS!

Chance favors the prepared mind.

Look, I own all the games in a separate cart (except, of course, for SMB2: Lost Levels) AND own Super Mario All-Stars for the SNES and I'd still buy this for the soundtrack, packaging and booklet. That by itself is worth $20.

Sadly, Mario World never appeared on All Stars, at least, not in the version I had on the SNES. Price needs to be available, and like Irfy said, where to pre order

Why did my version have SMW in it then? Smilie Unless I got some special/limited edition version.

Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World was part of a limited Super NES bundle released after Super Mario All-Stars was released. The version of Super Mario World included was virtually identical to the previous stand alone version save for the sprites and animations for Luigi was changed to actually resemble Luigi and not a green colored Mario. Interestingly, Japan did not get this version. Which is odd.

Ah, thanks for the clear up mate. Knew I wasn't going mad. But yeah, Nintendo should've added SMW to the bundle too.. shame they didn't. :/
EDIT: I didn't actually get my copy of SMA+SMW with my SNES, must've got given it by someone or something.
Oh and once again, my quotes are fucked up. FML.
