Is there anyway to set mget in smbclient to not ask me for a
confirmation on every file it tries to download?

For instance.
smb: \> mget *.txt
Get file 1.txt? y
Get file 2.txt? y
etc...

Id rather it just grabs them all, and doesnt ask for a confirmation,
sort of like the -i switch on the shell ftp client does. I've looked
throught he man page, cant find anything about it.

Any help would be great. Thanks!

In ftp sessions, you type 'prompt,' and it turns on/off those prompts
(on by default)

Same as ftp; "prompt", which is clearly defined in the man page.
