If mario 64 received a revamped modern visual, I bet the collection would sell less.
People want to recreate low poly experience they had in M64, remembering this was part of mario trajectory in his 35 years.
This selling point is greater than a remake from scratch, IMO.
Their effortless product (under right timing and conditions) has more value than a full remake that would take many man years work.

Nintendo's minimum effort and maximum profit approach along with the moratorium on this game has worked for them. I won't be surprised at all if we get a similar Zelda compilation next year for $60. Maybe Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess all in one. No remade versions of them included though. except perhaps the Master Quest of OOT.

Wonder if we will get a similar thing with Metroid and Zelda next year with their 35 years anniversary... holy hell imagine the possibilities

Just moved up to #12 with ten days to go before release.

I hope it will have enough stock on Amazon

I read somewhere that stores have been cancelling some preorders because they won't be getting enough stock...

If this is true, man... There is just no defending this. This is stupid and only benefits scalpers.

It's sold out on Amazon, so it'll hang at #12 for now.

I would be shocked if there wasn't another printing sooner rather than later.

I'll have to see what it looks when I get it next Friday...but I'm not sure how much extra work was put into Rare Replay, but those N64 and Xbox games look awesome in hd

So far, the only store I know that ended up canceling preorders due to this is GAME. Still disappointing, though.

Also hope they'll get more physical copies during this limited run. 

Here in Netherlands/Belgium most places did not even do preorders for it.
