Super Mario 64 fan-topic

[nedostizni]

i know that this kind of topic has been a milion times here and on similar forums but it deserves to be here numerous times - cause this is the one of the best advanture (if i can call it like that) games i played.
So ll you Mario lovers let`s hear you, how many times have you finnished it, what are the interesting parts, stages, if you need any kind of help...

Long live Mario

finished it 3 times on uhle with my old trusty k6-2 450 and a voodoo2, for some reason never on my n64 if i had to choose this would probably be my top-rated mario game. imo the best stage is the clock on the 2nd floor in the castle or maybe the sunken ship (jolly roger bay or something like that i think). theres so much to explore you never really get tired of it

Indeed.. so many memories there.

Still the best 3D platformer in my opinion. Finished it twice as I recall; collected all 120 stars each time. I've been thinking of buying a used N64 so I can play it again, sans emulation.

yep the "sence" pf playing is a lot more better on good old N64, and it`s good old joypad. But for those wich whant to enjoy in N64 joypd at PC, here is something interesting: http://www.emulatronia.com/reportaje.../n64/index.htm

hm i got stucked on collecting the fifth star at the Whomp`s Fortress level. The name of the star is: Blast away the wall. I don`t know how to colect that star anyone knows.

P.S.

and hey what is this? Where are ll this people? Super Mario was in his time twice popular as C.S. is today, so don`t tell me that there are no Super Mario, and especialy
Super Mario 64 fans here. So let`s hear y`a all!!!

I love Mario 64, it irks me that Mario Sunshine was it's successor. (Although the levels without the water pack were brilliant).

[ScottJC]

I think the only game that can contend with Mario 64 is Banjo Kazooie (or tooie) in the 3d platformer department.

Personally I prefer Banjo-Kazooie; I also can't see the fuss with Sunshine.. what's wrong with the water pack...? Gameplay is a lot like Mario 64 was, only thing that really disappointed me was the boss's, they were absolutely pathetic.

The levels without the water pack mostly got on my nerves more than anything else.

i love banjo kazooie! flying is so much easier than in mario.

as for mario64, beat that a long time ago (sweet uhle), but never did get full stars (at 116/120). all my missing stars are castle secret stars. except the game doesn't actually tell you <i>which</i> of those you've already completed, so i'd end up having to get every castle secret again. boo.

any help with this please

Also i don`t get is Mario Sunshine better than 64 one? And what about the latest Mario i saw i think on Game Cube? What is it like?

oh ma gawd, dude, that was the easiest fucking star to get!
just get in the cannon, and if you look closely at the right wall, you can see a cut that leaves you with a triangle part of the wall that is loose. just shoot mario at it, it'll break off, and then, boom, star 4 u
