When Super Mario Bros. 35 and Super Mario 3D All-Stars were released, they were criticized for being preemptively planned to be pulled from digital storefronts on March 31, 2021. This, along with the DIC Mario cartoons coincidentally being moved from Netflix to Paramount+ on the same day, spawned an internet meme depicting Mario as receiving a medieval public execution by Nintendo on that date.

If you compare that to other games released for anniversaries, they weren't playable for only a limited amount of time, although Kirby's Dream Collection was released towards the end of the Wii's life span.
Can't believe there's still no permanent edition of the game, and that Super Mario Galaxy 2 hasn't been updated into the collection, so I never did get to play it myself due me getting hold of a Switch for the first time after it's limited release ended.
