Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen the game was still new and popular, rumors persisted that Luigi and Wario were in the game. These rumors have long been proven false, although those characters did appear in the later port, Super Mario 64 DS (2004). But in 2020, deep in the code someone found Luigi. He is not used or accessible in the game, but he exists in the code.
- GoofsWhen the player talks to Yoshi on the roof of the castle in the courtyard, a spelling error can be seen in Yoshi's dialogue, with the first line of text reading "Mario!!! It that really you???" It should be "Mario!!! Is that really you???"
- Crazy creditsAfter the end credits, Mario and the crew are in front of the castle waving goodbye to the viewers
- Alternate versionsRemade the Nintendo DS under the fitting title of "Super Mario 64 DS". Released as a launch title in 2004, this game is a complete retooling of "Super Mario 64" from the ground-up, adding 30 new Power Stars to the original game and featuring 4 playable characters (Mario, Yoshi, Luigi and Wario) each with unique abilities and gameplay attributes. Character movement is done with either the D-Pad or the DS's touch screen, and a "run button" is included to make up for the lack of analog control. In addition to a number of new stages being added, most of the pre-existing ones have been retooled in some way with layout changes or new mechanics, and a number of stage missions have been remixed or completely removed in some cases. Other changes include new items and stage obstacles, modified text/dialogue, different camera controls, a detailed map screen for each part of the game, a four-player competitive multiplayer mode, and a collection if minigames made to showcase the DS's touch screen and microphone capabilities.
- ConnectionsEdited into Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis (2006)
Featured review
THE best video game of all time.
Yes, that's right, it is. I firmly believe that the N64 and the weird looking controller were both designed just so this game could be made. It was amazing the first time I saw it, with its huge environments and colorful characters, and its amazing now. The play control is perfect, the graphics are beautiful, and it has that Nintendo charm that is always so intangible but undeniably there. A must have for any N64 owner, and a reason to get an N64 for everyone else.
