I remember my first getting into the infinite stairs to the last level. Me and my brother ran up the stairs for 10 minutes, as the music made us more and more nervous. I started saying that was no way we could get to the top and that we had to go back, but my brother didn't want to look back because he was afraid of the stairs being infinite to the way down too. He asked me to go down the stair for him, but I didn't want neither because I also was afraid of that possibility. After running up the stair a bit more, we decided to head back, and when we saw that we didn't have moved nothing our minds were blown away... and also relieved that we were not forever trapped in the staircase.

But mario 64 doesnt give you a get out of jail free card and it makes every jump feel earned. But i also understand that it can make 64 hard to get into
@Mike14264
2 жыл бұрын
I played through the entirety of SM64DS, and yeah, you have to think quite well about the jumps you have to make. I remember not varying my jumps all that much in Mario Galaxy 2, though maybe that was because I was younger, but even still, the controls in there feel snappier, the there isn't any dumb knockback from bad landings, and the SPEEN is a good save. Despite Galaxy 2 having a lot of death pits, it's still less stressful than 64... But I still had a really pleasant time with the game, way more than I expected in some stages. I expected Lethal Lava Land to kick my ass, Hazy Maze Cave to be exhausting to explore, and Shifting Sand Land to be unpleasant. But no! LLL was pretty fun, especially with the Koopa Shell riding, that was super fun! HMC was quite exciting to explore! SSL... ok yeah, still not a fan of the death sand pits, or the fact you can't leave the pyramid, but even still, it was all way more fun than I anticipated! Tall Tall Mountain? Way less taxing than I expected, didn't die from falling nearly as much as I expected, and I didn't even need to climb the whole thing every time! Tick Tock Clock was fun to experiment with, even if I had to climb it more times, one too many times I'd say. Really, even Tiny-Huge Island, with stupid Klepto, and the stupid bottomless pits where there should be water, and those stupid tiny ramps that make you slide off the whole thing to your death instead of water, and the stupid tiny enemy knockback... it still wasn't as painful as I expected. Some of the stuff I did made me feel tense and stressed, as I wasn't all too confident on the controls, but I still did it nonetheless without any issues! Screw Rainbow Ride tho. Not bad, I still enjoyed it, but way too overkill with the death by falling, for an entire Course nonethless.

As a kid I though there was a secret outside the castle. I never knew how to unlock the cannon by the little lake, but when I found the secret slide behind the Peach panting and how it was the same one as on the front of the castle. I though that by unlocking that cannon and launching into the Peach picture on the front of the castle was how you saved her and unlocked her as a playable character. Forget L is Real, I say P is real!

I was a dumb kid. I never had that moment of "Wait, it's Mario in 3D?!" I got the game along with the 64 and all I knew was that it's a video game and it's Mario. Whether it was 2D or 3D didn't matter to me. But I spent countless hours playing it. I would explore the castle thoroughly and every level trying to find any secrets. I would go to the Metal Cap switch room and really explore it. For some reason, I felt like there was something special about that room, other than the metal cap switch. I always found it cool how you get there by entering Hazy Maze Cave and if you let the water current take you, you end up outside the castle. The interconnected world in the game always amazed me. It's been years since I played it. The Switch needs a Virtual Console. I want to replay this!

I completely agree with everything. I love this game, but it has problems. I thought I was the only one dying a lot in Super Mario 64 although I’m very good at the game. I really like how you don’t have to have a double jump to have good platforming, but I do like what they did in Super Mario Odyssey, how you can use Cappy to either stop momentum or give you an extra action after you jump on him, but it’s not easy to use at first and how it’s not necessarily, but it helps to do some really cool stuff. I love power ups, although people usually hate them in this game due to them being very situational, but I really like them, Metal Mario being my favorite. I like how the metal suit was brought back in Super Mario Odyssey.

I want to make my own game based around the "every painting/picture tells 100 words" phrase, but with real life paintings, but like... if they were interpreted by an imaginative child. Like, the Mona Lisa would have a rennaissance era level, but instead of being realistic it would play off stereotypes and romanticisation the rennaissance. So, for example, there would be fantastical wooden steam punk-esque machines designed by ol' Leonardo da Vinci and they would each have their own gameplay elements. There's so much potential in this concept because there's so much art. You could visit the medieval era and fight knights dragons and save the princess, you could visit the wild west and blow up gold mines on dusty cliffsides, you could take to the seas and explore massive fleets, you could go to a Victorian era neighborhood and solve murder mysteries with Sherlock Holmes and the list goes on as long as there's new art concepts to explore. You could even subvert expectations and go off the wall by having a level look very average, but then when you enter the stage you'd realize there was some hidden element right out of the field of view of the painting, for example, maybe some Norman Rockwell painting looks super average 1950s American suburbia, but then you realize it's in a post apocalypse and that on idealic scene was the only one remaining. If any coders are reading this and are interested in helping me make this please find me 😐

The N64 was my second console after the GASP. I had Mario 64, Donkey Kong 64, Glover, all of the 64 Bomberman games, and of course Banjo Kazooie and Tooie. Kirby Crystal Shards, and Pokemon Snap... I never knew how good I had it with games when I first played it because my brother gave them all to me. I honestly cherish the memories this console brought me, and the groundings that resulted playing these games a bit too much. I remember when I was in high school, I had a boyfriend, and we would frequently play games together. Like, it was our go to to spend time with each other. He had never played Banjo Kazooie. I freaked out, and we took turns getting puzzle pieces and had a blast. It was genuinely magical seeing him react to the game for the first time, especially on our huge, modern living room tv. Modern day games are fun, but it's always important to look back at the past to see how far we've come. Even though I was a bit late to the party, I still got to experience the genuine charm of these old games and I'm incredibly thankful for it. Keep up the great work Nitro Rad, and don't ever forget to look back on things that for you where you are today.

11:00 Yeah I gotcha, moving around with momentum like Mario (displayed here) is like parkour. Although it’s sorta unrealistic with the somersault job because it’s too high and the dive to suddenly push you forward, you would treat every other move set as a good flowing motion. Double jump kinda throws everything off because it’s not physically realistically possible. *edit:* guess it also relies on the level design too. I guess Mario 64 is really is considered the most revolutionary game. And deserves every love and reward that it has received.

And here you are saying, "the camera and controls do work... most of the time." With those other guys, you might get the sense that Mario 64 is near unplayable in this current day, when it's just not. It's a good balance, more representative of the game, and I'm glad you did it, Nitro.

Kind of funny to see another person not being afraid of the piano but instead being afraid of all the same stuff I was. Also, "Tiny, huge island" has great level design. It's like every time you get in to it to get a new star you've learned how to get it or spotted a possible way to find it thanks to getting the last star.

Every time I play a classic title on the N64 the control stick is so stiff that it eventually breaks. I grew up with Playstation’s full 360 degree control stick so I guess this is bound to happen eventually.

Stiff? the N64 stick is anything but stiff. That's what I don't really like about it. Since it's so lose and quick and doesn't have as much resistance as modern controllers I very often overshoot targets and precision is very difficult since I can't really push the stick halfway.

Okay, so from what I can gather, the reason it says you can defeat the mad piano in the guide book is because the guide book was made during an earlier build of the game, meaning that at one point, you actually *were* able to defeat the mad piano. However, as development went on, this feature, along with a few others, were removed, but the guide book was not updated to compensate for this.

Mario 64 probably still has my favorite 3D Mario movement system ever. Odyssey has real smooth Mario controls, but Mario 64's gimmick free system is still very versatile and just feels great. It's just pure 3D platforming!
@MrMarinus18

I think it's why Mario made the transition to 3D so much smoother than Sonic did. Mario 64 is extremely basic and generic. They focused on just making Mario good to control and then made stages to use that control. No multiple characters, no gimmicks, no expensive cutscene's and the powerups were just changing Mario's properties and not even the physics. They don't change his weight, feel or give him any new moves. I think if Sega had made Sonic adventure in a similar way it would have gone over way better. Maybe something similar to secret rings but with tighter controls.

I think with each full 3D Mario game since this came out, starting with Sunshine, conintuing through Galaxy 1 and 2, and finally with Super Mario Odyssey, Nintendo has been trying to render SM64 obsolete. And with each attempt, they come ever closer. In a lot of ways it's really hard to go back after playing Odyssey, but even still, the core of SM64 is so strong that I think it'll be enjoyed for many more years.

By "beat the piano", they didn't mean "defeat the piano". It's obvious to assume that 'beat' is being used as a synonym for 'defeat', as in to "beat in combat", but the book is trying to say that you can "beat" it in the sense that you can sneak around it and collect the coin that it guards. It's obvious that this really wasn't worded in the best sense. Clearly the immediate assumption is that you can defeat the piano, so they really should have said something like "out-manoeuvre the piano" or "conquer the piano" - something that doesn't have connotations of a combative encounter.

9:24 You could actually just do a kick to change direction so that you'll land in the drop zone. Also, 19:12 any time Lakitu is difficult, you can press R to switch to the Mario Camera and Lakitu will move the camera to whatever angle you want, and even automatically move behind you if you stay still (albeit slowly). Make sure to zoom it out, though, because when zoomed in, the camera is right behind Mario, so you often can't see enough of the area to do any platforming anyway.

(you could take this with a grain of salt, I probably might just be nostalgic here) I totally get why people don't like getting booted out of a level when they're used to other collect-a-thons just letting you go on. I liked Mario Odyssey a good deal, but I didn't love it. Most of the time when I got a Power Moon, it just felt like "okay, you beat that objective, let's move on." In Mario 64, most of the objectives were level-wide, and they felt like huge accomplishments, so it only made sense to be booted out of the level. I only started playing Banjo-Kazooie recently, so Mario 64's style of collect-a-thon just... made a lot of sense to me. When I first heard people complaining about this aspect, I was like "why? That's just how it's supposed to be!" But I totally get the complaint.

in the red coin missions for this game, SGB (The Super Gaming Brothers) did them and the 100 coin stars in one mission for the most part. their channel name is also a bit of a misnomer. only two of them (Johnny and Elliot) are brothers, or half brothers (maybe step brothers at the furthest) the third guy (Matt) is just their friend who was an occasional guest but then became a mainstay of the channel. Covid-19 sucks BTW. Apologies for the unrelated tangent in your comments, James. I just needed somewhere to say that last bit.
