Meh, as much as I liked the game when it first came out, it hasn't aged well because of its repetitive collect-a-thon gameplay, and the level design is bland and uninspiring. Easily the weakest of the major 3D platformers on N64 when compared to Mario and the Banjo games. Even Conker is more enjoyable because, although its short, there's virtually no backtracking, which makes replaying the game all the more fun each time.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Fuck remakes, we need new IPs or New games or else the wiiU will be like the Vita

Vita has and will have more new IPS than Wii u. But yeah, both will sell like crap at the end.

I didn't like the game much when it came out. Traversing each area 5 times over gets boring after a while. It just didn't live up to the DK Country games for me.

I think that the collect-a-thon platformers have aged terribly. I liked Banjo at the time, but going back now it is not very good.

 If you look at it like that, then literally everything Ninendo is doing right now is bad, because everything they're doing now has been done to death. They've lost their touch of genuinely recreating their series with each gen, and are now just banking on creating things that are cost effective and they know will sell.

What?  How so?  Did Nintendo suddenly make a bunch of collect-a-thon platformers while I wasn't looking?

Did you respond to the wrong post?  This makes no sense in regards to what I said.

 No, you were complaining about collect-a-thon platformers not ageing well. Neither are modern platformers, yet Nintendo keeps pumping them out.

Since when are modern platformers not aging well?  The Wii is home to several of the best platformers ever made, and that is within just the last few years.

Yeah. I am done with half ass 3d and nostalgic 2d games.

Yes. Galaxy and .sm3dw are half assed 3d

Mario 64. Sunshine. Were not.
.dk64 definitely was not . So much...too much content!

Does that mean you didn't like Mario Galaxy 1&2 or SM3DW?


that means I want real exploration in the next mario.

 

Banjo kazooie for example and even mario 64.- even the overworlds had layers upon layers to discover, then you had the levels as well. Not even skyward sword can boast that I think. It all seems like a path I am forced down. Give me free roam like the n64 did! visuals be damned!

Maybe a sequel to either Mario 64 or Mario Sunshine is in the works, or maybe a new and fresh installment to the 3D Mario Series.

Well im looking forward to Tropical freeze on Friday, it looks sweeeet and judging by a lot of reviews the media seem to like it too. I think it will give NSMBU and Rayman a run for their money. If Ninty are gonna do a HD remake again it has to be Mario Sunshine..those tropical locations would look gorgeous, do it already!!!!

I have TF pre-ordered and am looking forward to it....if they were to announce Donkey Kong 64 HD, I'd buy another Wii U...

Yep, one of my favorite N64 games, never understood why it was "bad". People call it a "collectathon"...yet a LOT of games are like this and aren't called as such (and are even praised).
