The title successfully proved that the famously polished, tried-and-true 2D play mechanics of the Super Mario Bros. series could be translated to 3D and, indeed, even in some cases improved upon. It also simultaneously helped define 3D gaming as a whole and pushed Nintendo's plumber mascot even further into the spotlight as one of the most recognizable figures in the games industry. Mario explores Princess Peach's castle and hunts for stars in a variety of differently themed stages. The platformer remains, even by today's harsh standards, a true masterpiece.

Top Reviews Review created: 08/09/06 by: 23 of 28 people found this review helpful. Super Mario 64 was not only one of the two games released at the launch of the N64, but it also was the game that changed many minds about 3-Dimensional gaming. Much criticism faced the idea of bringing a Mario game to 3D, but it was pulled off perfectly. In this game, Mario has to fight his way through 15 giant courses in order to collect Power Stars to rescue Princess Peach. There are 120 different Power Stars in this game, and Mario is required to complete a puzzle or some sort of task to get each Power Star. When you have enough Power Stars, you can fight Bowser in a beautifully rendered 64 bit world. This game has become quite a legend, and truly is a "Must Have" title for any Nintendo 64 collection. Pick up a copy of this game ASAP if you don't already own it. Review ID: 10000000001571187 Was this review helpful? Report this review 14 of 21 people found this review helpful. Super Mario 64 was in my mind an excellent Mario game. They put so much stuff in to this game. There are about 120 stars that Mario needs to collet in order to clear everything but he only needs 100 to save the princess. During his journey, he can put on different caps: a Metal Mario cap, a Flying Mario cap, and an Invisible Mario cap. If you are a Mario Lover then you really need to grab this game and never let go of it because it is a classic and will always be wanted by gamers.

If you have never played this game, you really are missing a TRUE CLASSIC!! I won't take up to much space about this game because I could use pages and pages about all the good aspects and features of this game. I think I will sum it up with: STILL TO THIS DAY, REGARDLESS OF CONSOLE - BEST GAME MADE TO DATE...PERIOD!!! Review ID: 10000000003052836 Was this review helpful?

With the debut of the analog control stick, the world of video games was transformed instantly with Mario 64. Perfectly fitted soundtrack, memorable levels, and cute one-liners from Mario make this game a must have. Review ID: 10000000000723031 Was this review helpful?
