It sucks dick. Use a gamepad for anything platform-like.

I did finish Mario 64 with keyboard only :D But the fact that it's an amazing game helps, of course. It's also a different kind of platforming than the Prince of Persia games, I guess.

My biggest complaint has always been the fact  I can't make a precise enough movement with the directional key. It infuriates me when I am near a ledge and I need to face a different direction, say 45 degrees to my left,  that isn't at a 90 degree to me. I played the original sands of time, and it really was not that bad either, but I played it on my Gamecube a bit later and it was a big improvement.

Basically, playing platformers on a keyboard is like playing Shooters with dual analogs. It sucks big dick, but it can be shoehorned to "passable" levels.
