"I'm not much of a fan of the Mario series, except for maybe Super Mario 64 [Editors Note: Chu Boi's mistaken opinions about Mario in no way reflect the opinions of PushingPlay], but I have to admit: this shirt is the bee's knees. It's more action-packed than if Solid Snake, Dante, Steven Segal, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Roadhouse Partrick Swayze all got in a bar fight. Ok, wait, I take that back. Nothing is as intense as that.
Koopa Paratroopas are trying to hate on Mario's parade but he serves them with a fireball facial. Yoshi's all hopped-up on whatever got those raptors mad in Jurassic Park and is totally beasting on Goombas. Luigi's knocking the stuffing out of Petey Piranha like he owes him money. Dude, just buy it already."
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.
