Super Mario 64 without a single doubt.
An average to good 3D platformer in a gen filled with way, way better options and coming from an exceptional 2D platformer masterpiece as Super Mario World, is exalted as one of and as the very best game by a lot of people not only from its genre or gen but of all time.
There is not a single game that comes remotely close to being as overrated as it is.

It's a matter of timing: SM64 heralded the industry's transition from 2d to 3d gaming and what better franchise than Mario, an icon of 2d gaming, to do this? Also cemented the need for thumbsticks in future controllers thereafter. 3d gaming to this day needs them.
