Yeah I would definitely say SMG is as hard as SM64 the differences being the platforming in SMG was more complex and compared to SM64 much harder what has happened in the years though has been the skill of the gamer (the ones that did 100% SM64) has become better also the reason for a lot of deaths in SM64 is the camera (most of the time) and controls (rarely but needs to be thrown in there) which was all fixed in SMG, then add in all the 1ups of SMG, 1ups don't make a game easier IF YOU DIE THATS A DEATH it just feels less significant with all the 1ups I mean if you got game over where would you start from? basically the same spot that you would with a 1up it just keeps you from going through the process of restarting going back to the world ONLY to die again, that would get annoying, in fact I played SMG where I wouldn't grab any coins or 1ups and got game over many times it finally got on my nerves and I went back to having actual fun and grabbing anything shiny I could find.
