For every goodie, there needs to be a baddie, and in the world of Nintendo they don't get much bigger than King Bowser - or King Koopa if you prefer. He's been around just as long as Super Mario and changed just as much, but because of his evil doings, we suppose, he doesn't get anywhere near the same amount of attention.
It's time to get properly acquainted. Let Nintendic take you on a trip down memory lane, documenting some of the antagonist's most famous exploits and seeing just how much he has grown and developed as a character since he first captured the Princess over two decades ago.
Super Mario 64 DS was offered as a launch title for the Nintendo DS, a remake of the classic platform game with a few original tricks.
Needs more appreciation. I never had an N64 so this was what I played. Sure the Yoshi hat mechanic at first is a slog but you unlock Mario and the others for real and then it takes off. Personally I never had an issue with the controls. Can't forget the mini games and the 4 player rumble over download play.
Indeed, as stated in the article there were tonnes of control options and very much a 'take whatever you like, leave the rest' attitude to most of the game's extras.
These groundbreaking video games changed gaming forever and drew in scores of fans in the process.

My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.
I main Bowser in Super Smash Melee, and may I say, he is indeed...
a bad ass.
