Reddit’s member ‘varietygamer‘ has experimented with its source code and released a new overhauled version of it. This new version packs improved lighting and shadows, HDR + Depth of Field + Edge Shading, Volumetric Clouds, Specular Bump mapping on most textures and high resolution landscape textures."
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.
Releasing the Nintendo Switch 2 with a Super Mario 64 remake would be the perfect way to unleash the console to the world.
If they ever did I hope they would add onto it, there's so much you could do with Princess Peach's castle alone
Or just make the Mario 128... the cancelled sequel that sounded amazing (or was it just an amazing tale).
Funny that after all these years, we still use 64 bit CPUs, so it wouldn't make sense to call it that.
Each level is pretty small today in the original game, I don't like huge levels but I think they could be at least 2x bigger, or close to it and more of them, with more things to do.
They could do a mix of having open levels and more linear ones like in 3D World or Land, I doubt they will do that but it would make a change.
I mean Odyssey's levels weren't massive, but requiring you to do different things in each world is what made the levels feel bigger than they were.
I'd prefer a Oydessey 2 or Galaxy 3. Besides the DS
game was a Mario 64 remake complete with more playable characters, stages, bosses and muti player content.
I did not like Odyssey i found the idea of ot lame.. i find it boring to just look for moons instead of exploring and enjoying the levels. Let’s not talk about the extremely repetitive and ridiculously easy bosses. Level design is so meh most of the time. Galaxy 2 is a far better game so Galaxy 3 anytime!!!
Agreed. I enjoyed Odyssey for a while, but it quickly became very formulaic where each level felt like a checklist of things to do with WAY too many moons to find. The Galaxy series were the best, as they took some of what made 64 great and juiced it up perfectly.
Yes! Let's release an almost 30 year old game to kick off the next generation for Nintendo...
I'm over re-releases...FEED ME NEW MARIO!
A huge Super Mario 64 speedrun trick has been discovered that could prove to wholly change the speedrunning scene in the ecosystem.
Horrible. Even this many years later, trying to top Nintendo - stand on the shoulders of giants, BAD idea. SM3DW beats this attempt at a HD example of Mario badly.
It doesn't have that Nintendo look. It's almost like someone took Borderlands, and rendered it with realistic graphics. It just doesn't have the same charm or fluffy bright colors.
