You can still do the Long Jump to cover long distances, though. This is basically the sad news for some Mario fans about the Backward Long Jump in Super Mario 64 3D All Stars. Especially in areas of slopes, stairs and moving platforms, speedrunners have made the most of the Backward Long-Jumping technique. Its removal, although good for a majority of players, is unfortunate news for all those who were hoping to speedrun through it. It is one of the most well-known glitches and exploits in the gaming world. So to answer your question, Nintendo has removed the BLJ in Super Mario 64 on Switch because it was actually a glitch that was exploited. There are a few changes though and one of them involves the Backwards Long Jump.
In this collection of three classic Mario games namely Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy, you will see retouched versions of the original games.
