    This game was absolutely mindblowing and revolutionary for 1996. The graphics might have aged but they still look nice for the eye because they are so cheerful and colorful. But what's best is that gameplay and controls haven't aged and they are still perfectly fluid and responsive, even for modern standards. You can still play this game in 2020 and have lots of fun.

    The best 3D perspective platforms of the 90's generation and probably the best platforms to date. Easy to play hard to master. Great variety of worlds and enemies. Waste of imagination and creativity. Unforgettable soundtrack. Nothing bad to say about this game. 10/10.

    This game isn't pefect. The controls are garbage, we all know that. But some stages are really bad, but most are good. Shifting sand land, wet dry world, dire dire docks, snowman's land, everything above tall tall mountain, are horrible! Other stages make up for it though.

    Super Mario 64 is the first mainstream analog game and it shows clunky and outdated controls just play on ds or emulator . The level design is amazing and the speed run tech save this game from a lower score it’s infinitely replayable .The emulated version is much better and you can add mods ,make sure you buy the game from Eshop before you mod so that games can be continued to be made .

Mario wird von Prinzessin Peach zum Schloss eingeladen, als der böse Bowser sie - wer hätte das gedacht - entführt, und Mario herausfordert, die Power-Sterne zu finden, die er innerhalb der Gemälde im Schloss versteckt hat. Durch die Oberfläche dieser Gemälde gelangt Mario in die verschiedenen Welten des Spiels. Diese reichen von Wiesenlandschaft, über Eis- und Wasserwelten, bis hin zu wärmeren Orten wie Wüsten und Vulkanen, und decken damit die klassische Mario-Palette ab. Die Jump&Run-Mechaniken, die mit wenigen Knöpfen eine Vielzahl von Möglichkeiten eröffnen, sind intuitiv und lassen sich so flüssig und reaktiv aneinander reihen, dass es eine Freude ist, die verschiedenen Hindernisse auf der Suche nach den Sternen zu überwinden. Die offene Gestaltung der Spielwelt und die vielen versteckten Geheimnisse sorgen für große Spielerfreiheit und Erkundungsdrang. Super Mario 64 zählt zu den absoluten Meilensteinen der Videospielgeschichte und ist auch heute noch absolut zu empfehlen.… Expand

    The controls are fine, but there's WAY too many glitches that can either break the game or make the game way too easy (looking at the backwards long jump).

    People get on Sonic '06 for having tons of glitches, yet in a playthrough of that game, I haven't experienced more than 2 unless I went out of my way to find them. Mario 64? You can run into these glitches on the fly, and often at that.

    And the plot is just another "Bowser kidnapped the princess" scenario. It doesn't need to be a huge plot, just, I don't know, try to be unique? Mario Galaxy has a much more interesting story to tell, and even in 64 DS it at least mixes it up with Bowser simultaneously kidnapping Mario, Wario, and Luigi alongside Peach

    Speaking of 64 DS, I feel no more need to review this ****** game. Quit idolizing it, it isn't that good. Go play 64 DS instead. More content, better graphics.    … Expand

    The world is amazing and blew my childhood mind away not to mention the perfect and precise handling of Mario. Nintendo took a risk by bringing Mario to the 3D world and wow did it pay off.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay, I understand this game was a revolutionary back in 1996, but this isn’t 1996, this is 2019, so the first thing I can say is that this game did NOT age well, like, at all. Controlling the game feels like riding a Big Wheel. Also, the stars can be so confusing at times that I have to look up a guide. The story is the same Mario story as almost every other Mario game, which is boring. The melee moves do literally nothing since you can just jump on or dive at enemies. Also, this game is very unpolished, even for a 1996 game. But, I can say I like the music, despite the same few tracks being reheard throughout the game. In conclusion, Mario 64 might’ve been a good game at the time, but it’s really lost it’s impact and gotten slightly worse with each new Mario game being so far ahead of it and having much better controls. I do feel like the game could be done justice with a proper Switch remake, though.… Expand

    Super Mario 64 was released on the Nintendo 64 in September of 1996. I will be reviewing this game by looking at the game and it’s contemporaries when it came out 23 years ago.

    Story: 7/10 At this point, the same Mario story had been repeated three times (SMB, SMB3, SMW). Luckily, SM64 changes it up a bit with Peach being locked away within her own castle. Bowser has kidnapped Peach and    Super Mario 64 was released on the Nintendo 64 in September of 1996. I will be reviewing this game by looking at the game and it’s contemporaries when it came out 23 years ago.

    Story: 7/10

    At this point, the same Mario story had been repeated three times (SMB, SMB3, SMW). Luckily, SM64 changes it up a bit with Peach being locked away within her own castle. Bowser has kidnapped Peach and you must collect power stars to unlock more of the castle rooms. Overall, a decent story for the time, but nothing special.

    Level Design: 8/10

    This game’s level design is mostly pretty good. Bomb-Omb Battlefield is a great first level to mess around in, and Whomp’s Fortress is my favorite level in the game. Even though the game is held together by a thread, as you can use glitches and exploits to beat the game with 0 stars, you most likely will have a stable experience if you don’t have knowledge of these game-breaking strategies. Some of the later levels like Jolly Roger Bay and Rainbow Ride are slow and tedious. SM64 should be about constant action, as you move around these sandboxes. But these levels are slow and monotonous to play, which goes against this game’s design philosophy.

    Control: 9/10

    Contrary to the majority opinion, I still think SM64 controls beautifully. I rarely have problems with the camera and the N64 controller was made for this game. Diving and long jumping helps make this game just that much more fun to run around in and allows for some sick movement through levels.

    Completion: 10/10

    This game has 120 stars, and that’s about it. The only other “collectibles” are coins and red coins, which are used to get more stars. But in my opinion that’s all the game needs. There are 105 stars spread across 15 stages with seven each. The remaining 15 stars are found in secret stages that are usually the linear segments of the game. Super Mario 64 will only last you around ten hours on your first play through, but this game has so much replay-ability. Case and point-

    Speedrunning: 10/10

    Speedrunning SM64 is a wild ride, no matter what category your running.

    0 Star - Constant glitches through walls and barriers, as well as highly optimized movement.

    1 Star - Same as 0 Star but you complete the Bowser 2 requirement of getting one star in Dire, Dire Docks.

    16 Star - BLJ’s, optimized movement and clipping through walls in around a quarter of an hour if your the best.

    70 Star - Pick which stars are the quickest and use only a few glitches to beat the game.

    120 Star - Complete the entire game.

    If you have a mild interest in Speedrunning and you like this game, give it a try.

    Final Score: 8.8/10

    Super Mario 64 has aged very well compared to other games at the time and deserves being regarded as a 90’s classic. A must play if you haven’t tried it.    … Expand

    This Game is overrated. I mean, it can be fun, but it aged rather poorly, the camera is probably the worse i have ever seen in a 3D platformer, the Gameplay is pretty stiff and clunky, and it can get pretty repetitive. I'd recommend later Mario Games that improved on the formula rather than this one.

    ``Espectacular´´
    Probablemente este ha sido el título que ha marcado la diferencia total en la historia de los juegos de Nintendo, se trata de la primera entrega en utilizar texturas 3D para la consola de Nintendo 64 en el año 1996.

    Probablemente este ha sido el título que ha marcado la diferencia total en la historia de los juegos de Nintendo, se trata de la primera entrega en utilizar texturas 3D para la consola de Nintendo 64 en el año 1996.

    La historia en sí es muy sencilla, un fontanero de baja estatura, pelo castaño y bigote de color negro. Debe salvar a una princesa que fue secuestrada en su propio castillo, siendo raptada por el típico antagonista de la saga: Bowser. Ya con el hecho de saber que la sinopsis es casi igual al ´Debut´ de Super Mario en 1985, y además que ella se encuentra encerrada en su propio castillo, no presenta gran amenaza y tampoco es la gran cosa, así que. ¿Por qué este juego es tan desafiante y exitoso en ello?

    Porque es honesto, el juego sabe que tiene una premisa simple, así que la explota, transforma y evoluciona de maneras inimaginables. Haciendo a nuestro protagonista casi imposible la tarea de encontrar a la princesa de una forma rápida y sencilla.
    La dificultad siempre está en un nivel desafiante tanto para jóvenes como mayores, tanto para jugadores con experiencia, como para aquellos que utilizan por primera vez una videoconsola, y esto representa el gran trabajo llevado a cabo en la construcción de los controles y la jugabilidad balanceada.

    El Castillo, el cual es el escenario principal donde se desarrolla todo el juego. Se presenta como un universo entero, el cual está plagado de mundos, cientos de estrellas, misiones, y jamás se te da la oportunidad de quedarte ahí sin nada que hacer, siempre surge algo nuevo que explorar y descubrir.
    Para aquellos que jueguen este título por primera vez probablemente les parecerá casi infinita la exploración. Recuerda mucho al castillo de ´Hogwards´ de la saga Harry Potter, el cual está lleno de pasajes secretos, trampas, monstruos y misterios, algo muy similar al castillo de este juego, el cual posee un diseño arquitectónico totalmente perfecto.

    La banda sonora, probablemente una de las más icónicas y memorables en la industria de los videojuegos. Cuenta con distintos temas aplicados para cada nivel, pero el mejor sin dudas es el del escenario principal, el cual suena como una orquesta sinfónica de sintetizador que refleja a la perfección la paz y comodidad que ofrece el ambiente. Probablemente el único problema que encuentro con el juego es el manejo de la cámara, el cual a veces resulta un verdadero obstáculo para poder llevar a cabo las acciones de el personaje, pero nada que arruine la experiencia en general.

    En resumen, me atrevo a decir que Super Mario 64 es uno de los juegos más espectaculares, fantásticos e imaginativos que se hayan creado, todo esto con una dirección perfectamente sublime. Aún para la fecha sigue cautivando con su maravillosa estructura, mecánica, musicalización, gráficos y esplendida jugabilidad, todo esto lo que lo ha convertido en una figura icónica y ejemplar para los diseños de entregas posteriores. Además de ser uno de esos títulos que logran transportar al jugador en su totalidad, a su hermoso y perfectamente construido mundo. Una autentica e indudable obra maestra.

One of the things I love about this game is the controls and the movement, which if you are a fast player you can take shortcuts around the level such as surfing on a turtles shell, etc.

    Simply, one of the best game i've ever played. It's so satisfying to control Mario. Level designs are great. Every level designed for Mario's platforming abilities.But camera control is so weird and annoying. Sadly you can't see the boss fights in every course. That's a bit disapointing.

    This game is perhaps the greatest I've ever played. One of the most masterful platformers with a wide array of fun levels and powerups that kept me engaged for hours on end. This is a game you need to play once in your lifetime.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I rarely give a 10 to any kind of merchandise I'm going to review at. This merchandise is relating to a film, sound, food, restaurant, or a game.

    This game deserves a very rare "perfect" score from me. An ultimate game classic, that's what I would call Super Mario 64 is!

    Super Mario 64 has strong visuals that is unexpected on the year 1996, to which the year it was released. The concept of the game, in garnering "stars" as tokens in proceeding to various sections of the game, is unique and fantastic.

    The soundtrack of the game is decent and enjoyable which adds tension and motivation in finishing this quite long-played game; by long-played, in a sense, of it's terms on difficulty in acquiring stars and other game tokens such as keys and milestones.

    What I like about this game is not the generic story but rather on how it was very enjoyable in acquiring and capturing those plentiful stars in the game. Every stars I manage to earn adds even more enthusiasm in obtaining all of them. AND THAT! is the way a classic game should have an impact to it's users.

    Congratulations on the creators and all the people who are involved in making this wonderful and classic game. This really develops my fantastic childhood. Every time I see this game and watch people play it, the moments I remember while playing it is a nostalgic memory that I will recall from the rest of my life.

    Rating: 10/10 -> 5/5 stars (a very rare perfect score from me).    … Expand

Everything about it is creative and new, the story, the mechanics, the 3D platforming, the objectives, how open the world is, the cartoon-like style we know and love, the incredible music and inspiring world crafting. I love this game, always have. And I have little to no complaints about it. For example I hate the way the controls work, though this is mainly due to my hatred for N64 controllers. Anyway this game is an incredible achievement, the mere fact it was made in 1996 makes it astonishing, and the fact that it is so good makes this unbelievable. Haven't played this game? Try it.

    This game was a milestone due to its 3D environment.

    The level design was unique back in the times and the controls with the N64 stick were precise.

    Still the game felt a little empty. No story as usual and the sound effects were a bit cheap. The same boss used over and over again.

    Шикарный и очень интересный платформер, Когда садишься за него, оторваться очень сложно. В этом вся нинтендо.

    Mario 64 has aged incredibly well. This game revolutionised gaming: the first Mario 3d platformer. And what a good game it was! I really enjoyed getting all 120 stars (twice because I loved the game so much). Despite the n64's controller (remember it?) The controls were actually good, and the different levels are varied have just the right difficulty. Although I prefer Super Mario GalaxyMario 64 has aged incredibly well.

    El juego es increíble y divertido, el diseño de los niveles es asombroso, lo único malo sería el manejo del personaje, el cual muchas veces es un problema.

    Best Nintendo game I have ever played. Open world exploration in the amazing locations this game provides is easily the highlight. It revolutionised gaming, and is still a lot of fun to this day. Glad to see Nintendo are going back to this game's style with Super Mario Odyssey on the Switch. Can't wait! Thank you Super Mario 64 for being so great and inspiring us all to this day!

    oque falar de Super Mario 64, um jogo incrivel, grafico muito bons, temos o Mario que é personagem espetacular, muitas mapas, um diferente do outro, alguns sao dificeis, a trilha sonora é incrivel, temos personagens classico no game tambem, a verdade é que Mario raramente decepciona, jogo incrivel, classico, vale a pena demais jogar, baixem um emulador no pc e joguem esse classico. Nota 10

    O jogo eh ótimo, desde seu lançamento eu me supre endo, ate hoje eu jogo e eh um jogo incrível, com ótimos gráficos (para a época) e com ótimos comando, mesmo com aquele controle de N64 meio bagunçado rs, mas esse jogo é ótimo 10/10!

    gráfico ok (pra época) história nada de mais isso é mario!! nao tem nada haver com mario, eu daria a ele um titulo de spin off e bom... a JOGABILIDADE É HORRIVEL os pulos nao sao nem um pouco precisos é dificil controlar o mario em plataformas finas (não encontrei palavra melhor) e esse é o maior problema desse jogo e de muitos do N64 a e a camera tambem é muito ruim menos um ponto.

    This game, even 20 years later, is still fantastic. Although not the best 3D Mario game in my opinion, that goes to SMG 2, this is still my favorite, great graphics for a launch N64 game, controls that still hold well even today, this game is still a joy to play today. Buy it on the VC on the Wii or Wii U, HIGHLY recommended.

    Super Mario 64 is revolutionary game and best selling game on N64, I think this game much better than Ocarina of Time . Graphics for 1996 is ideal and N64 is revolutionary console and in this game very good storyline, gameplay is very amazing, Very awesome game, best game on N64 and one of the best Mario Games .

    My 2nd favorite Mario game is this one. The controls feels so free. Not in the bad way. The levels are awesome and the bosses are too. This has to be the 3rd best nintendo 64 game. I recommend everyone play it. It's 100% awesome!

    the concept of colect stars can sound very boring, but when you play it you will love this game. with mario 64 you have a lot of hours to play. you have a lot of things to do and the levels are very varied.

    The distribution of power stars in the levels is horrendous. I think 7 stars in one level is more than enough, don't you think? I understand that there are memory constraints, but there either could have been less stars overall, or 1 (maybe 2) more level(s). Definately a problem.
