Released in 1996 for the Nintendo 64, Mario 64 was the first 3D entry in Nintendo’s popular Mario franchise. Many consider the game to be one of the most influential and best games ever created. The game was recently re-released as part of the limited Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection for the Nintendo Switch. Here’s what we wrote about Mario 64 as part of that collection:
“As soon as I turned Super Mario 3D All-Stars on I started up Super Mario 64 and begun playing that one. I blinked, and I had 8 stars. I blinked again, 32. Before I knew it, I’d been completing each stage with all available stars, just blazing through the game, without the time to even stop and consider what I was looking at. Super Mario 64 is like glorious muscle memory and flow given digital life – if alchemists could bottle a feeling like this we would all be addicts. Super Mario 64 just feels natural, after starting the game you’re in the first level within less than a minute, and a few minutes later you can be several stars deep if you know what you’re doing. Super Mario 64, more than 20 years later, is still close to being perfect to play.”
