It's neither the pionner much less the creator of anything, just what made it well known. Sony PS1 was what made CDs popular on gaming and set an standard, but it didnt pioneered or created it, as a similar example. Seriously, people think Nintendo invented so many things that they didn't. Anyway, if it that was the case, which it isn't, the point would still be the same, even on its own generation it had games leaps and bounds better than it, and calling it one of or the very best game of all time is just absurd, IMO of course. The exaggeration around it is huge. As another example, a good 2D platformer as Rayman got and even better 3D game with Rayman 2 that was and still is a joy to play, that's one 5th gen 3D platformer that should be placing higher that Mario 64 on people's list and a true gem of that generation, it was also on the N64 as Banjo and Conker and it drives me sad to see N64 onwers ignore them so much compared to Mario 64. |
