I played super Mario 64 at my friends house, but I didn't own a N64

I hated SUper MArio Sunshine

maybe thats why SMG is my favorite

but I can't imagine how Super Mario 64 could be better

SMg is simply the best 3D platformer ever made with allt he types of things you cand o in it

That's the thing, though. SMG has loads of awesome features and nice controls, but doesn't use them properly (in my opinion) by not giving you enough freedom. All you do is walk from point A to point B. Now, that can be said about a lot of games, but in Mario 64, I could walk like 8 different ways from point A to point B - It was up to me. In Galaxy there's just the one way. I have no choice. That's how I feel anyway.

But yeah, Galaxy is an absolutely fantastic game and any gamer would be lucky to have it. It's just not as epic as 64, in my opinion.

hmm I see what you mean in terms of freedom. I heard the castle was like an open world in Super Mario 64, so the spaceship thingy we were on didn't do it for you as a base setting?

For me the motion controls were used perfectly & they worked really well. One thing I will agree with, freedom in terms of power suits was low, the read flying mario suit was AMAZING & great music played when you sued it, but you couldn't really use it much at all!

Also remember SMG is the easiest 3D mario....maybe you didn't like that either?

I guess to understand your love for SUper Mario 64 I may have had to play it "back in that time".....which I didn't ofcourse

Do you think your complaints will be dealt with in Super Mario Galaxy 2?

Yeah, notice how none of my complaints are related to controls or stuff like that :) Because there's just nothing to complain about.

And yes, thankfully, Super Mario Galaxy 2 looks like it's going to deal with every single one of my problems. It's like they monitored me, went "Right, so this is what Nicholas doesn't like - Let's fix it in the sequel" and then they did. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is my most hyped game right now, because it's the first game in a very, very long time which has a genuine shot at beating Super Mario 64 and overtaking the position of my best game of the forever.


Not only do I feel the same as you do in this post, but we also have the same name!!! WHAT ARE THE ODDS!?

EDIT: I also wish SMG2 has a steeper learning curve. I don't think it's too easy at the end, but it stays easy for too long. I liked the daredevil challenges A LOT.

Hah, that's pretty great :D



I enjoyed SM64 more but it's a very close second.



Pixel Art can be fun.

Super Mario Galaxy, because the music was simply brilliant and the gameplay is nearly unparalleled compared to past 3D Mario games. It was very refreshing when I played the game.



Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix! 

 

Like everyone, I loved Super Mario 64, a true masterpiece. Unlike some, I also love Sunshine, despite its "story". The gameplay was still top-notch, especially the parts without the DEVICE (cant remeber how it's named). Super Mario Galaxy was, and is still IMO, the best game on the WII. This is the game that justifies the code name Revolution for the wii. For me, it's the best 3D Mario ever.

So... is it better than Mario64?

The music is better, the graphics are better... and I think I like the levels a bit better...

But Mario64 was just so ground breaking, that I have to give it to Mario 64. It's still a great game to play today, but back in 1996, it was just amazing.



i love nintendos plan for each of their mario games, they made each game special. i wouldnt mind going back to mario 1, mario 2, mario 3, mario world, mario 64, mario sunshine, mario galaxy, new super mario bros ds/wii

i dont think any are better than the other. the only reason mario sunshine didnt do as well, is because what's the most unwanted part in a mario game? THE WATER LEVELS. but if you play more of it, you'll realize there is a lot of ground platforming in it :P

THEYRE ALL GREAT!!!

but the game that did open my eyes to an amazing new 3d environment was Mario 64. ^.-



It doesn't have a hub as good as Princess Peach's Castle or Delfino Plaza.
