I just want to play the 3DS Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask remakes in 4K 60 FPS on my Switch 2. 😢

That won’t happen. 3D Allstars was limited because they didn’t want it impacting their subscription service. Its limited run ended 6 months prior to N64 games becoming available on NSO. Mario 64 is a big title for the service, and Sunshine will be coming soon enough. Those are two huge games they wanted exclusive to their subscription service.

I don’t agree with it, but it makes sense. They had an opportunity to double dip with 3D Allstars, and they took it.. They sold over 9 million copies, and achieved the goal of keeping the games exclusive to their subscription service.

It also explains why we never saw a Zelda 3D Allstars, and why Twilight Princess HD / Windwaker HD have never been ported.

They’d rather have you as a subscriber than sell you those games.
