This game is amazing. Really, you should get it if you don't have it. Although it is ancient now it was amazing when it came out. I believe that this game will always be a classic. It's just as good a Super Mario World or so. When I was young, my friend and I would sit and play this game for hours trying to beat it which we eventually did. It's not nearly as advanced as Super Mario Galaxy, but if you are a fellow Mario fan it is essential. It's fun entertaining and challenging. Everything you could want out of a fantasy game except for good graphics, (well it did come out in 1996.) ROCK ON 4EVA MARIO LUIGI AND YOSHI!!! Nintendo is the best!

I enjoyed this game. I did not own it, but it is one of those fun games you can play if you lobe it. The game had good graphics, interesting story, gun levels, and so on. The game does its best to make you have a memorable experience. Even reviews show love for this gem. The levels are creative in their own way and prove you will enjoy yourself against anyone you face. Mario is your man in this game, like always. The controls play put smoothly. The enemies you meet are wimps or require some dexterity. Have fun, you will not be disappointed. Super Mario 64 is jam packed fun and will make you have a lot of fun no matter how problematic things may get.

I never actually owned a Nintendo 64 but I have played one many times.In my opinion along with Conkers Bad Fur Day, Super Mario 64 is one of the best video games for the Nintendo 64 system.I have played this game plenty of times and its good every time.If you have an N64 and don't have this game you should try to find it.The original Super Mario Bros games were side scrolling video games but Super Mario 64 has a 3D Mario in a nice 3D environment.The game is sort of weird but there is plenty of things you can do in the game.You play as Super Mario and once again you must rescue Princess and the 120 power stars from Bowzer.Now you can do it in a 3D environment.Super Mario 64 is a very fun and good N64 game and I recommend it.

When Nintendo 64 came out Christmas of '96, I remember the hype and anticipation and was surprised to receive one as a present for Christmas the very year news programs were alerting viewers that stores were being raided in search of the systems. It was worse then than now -- remember the Tickle Me Elmo fury? N64 was bigger, and worse.
Anyway, along with the platform was included the essential and unarguably most popular N64 game, "Super Mario 64." This was a breakthrough at the time. Nowadays, it's old-fashioned and the game has been adapted for a hand-held system. Back in 1996 (less than ten years ago mind you) it took a huge system to play the game.
It was breathtaking, then. The three-dimensional, fully-immersible world was amazing and unseen. As a result much of this game is kind of "showy" -- it does attempt to wow and amaze. But it only enriches the game play because Nintendo poured EVERYTHING into making this the most overwhelming game ever at that point in time -- it was awesome.
The game is still a classic and one of the best you'll ever play. Technically speaking it's not your standard Mario game because it's three-dimensional and features more of a plot and more options etc. -- but I like that for what it is. The two-dimensions has its qualities, and so does this.
"Mario 64" is a great game and still one of the best you can ever play. If you have never had a chance to play this, go to Ebay and spend thirty bucks and get an N64 and this game. It's worth it.

Super Mario 64 is the first game of Nintendo 64, and certainly one of the best games of that console. The graphics are very good for the beginning of the console.The environment is very beautiful, and the characters are very well-made. The game has cool musics.Despite Mario's idiot voice, the game's sound is perfect. The gameplay is good.Mario had many abilities, specially jumping abilities, such as double jump, triple jump, backward jump, wall kick and backward somersault. And the game is one of the N64 games with the most perfect fun factor.Simply COOL! The overalls are:
GRAPHICS:10/10. SOUND:9/10. GAMEPLAY:9/10. FUN FACTOR:10/10.
My overall for this jewel is 9.5/10.

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.
