Slashgamer Writes: "Orioto has created what I think could be the greatest picture I've ever seen that was made from someone outside the gaming industry. The painting is a "re-imagining of what the Mario world is like. And it's more beautiful than anything I would have thought up.
Ladies and Gentlemen; I'm calling this the Mona Lisa of video game art! I would love to own a print of this and hang it up on my wall."
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.
Cool, but far from greatest.
/I would love to see a MArio game with such art style =0...
Just like they did with SMW2:Yoshi's Island, O and the music of course lets not forget good music.
to bad we will never see such artstyle. =(...or will we?
Looks awesome, I haven't seen that many game artworks that good.
That is actually an amazing piece of art
a sidescroller 2.5D mario game with this art style would kill anyother game on the generation this got released...
i would love to see this game becoming reality...
