    Super Mario 64 is a Nintendo classic and having played it quite a bit and reviewing it before, I didn't think there was much more you could do with this game. But then this DS game remake came out and blew me away. I was able to play and be nostalgic for parts of this game, and then pleasantly surprised with the new additions. To me, Super Mario 64 DS is the definitive way to play this game.

      @@jasonbrown467 You’re not wrong that “smart” phones existed before that but they weren’t in the modern form we see today. They didn’t have the same blueprints that the iPhone gave us to kickstart actual smartphones. They had resistive touch needing a stylus, really underpowered CPUs, installing apps wasn’t as centralised and easy because there was no App Store. Plus the UI wasn’t intuitive and easy for the average consumer to use. The foundations were definitely there but it wasn’t enough to be considered a smart phone yet. Sure you could browse the internet, play games, and call people but its still very limited.

    This was the first video game I ever played, ever. It took me years to complete 100%, since I not only had to learn how to play and get good at the game, but games in general. I took it with me EVERYWHERE, and it took the help of all my friends to finally beat the game. It’s still one of my most treasured childhood moments. When my little brother turned about four or five (the age I was when I started playing), I reluctantly gave him my copy of the game, along with my original grey DS, so he could make some of the same memories I had made. It was a really touching Toy Story 3-like moment, until four days later he flushed it and the DS down his school’s toilet.

    This is the definitive edition of Mario 64. In my opinion: the only edge the original has is the speed running community, as well as being the origin of 3D Mario. DS absolutely updated it in every way possible.
    Small critique: all characters can use the hats and the wing. The only exception here for the first one is that no other character is yoshi besides Yoshi. The wing can be used by everybody tho.

It brings back memories, one thing you didn't touch on was the battle game you play with friends, a thing most overlooked but brings back memories of me and my seventh grade friends playing it in the school library.

    Surprised you didn’t talk about the controls more considering there is less analogue movement due to the way it’s programmed. Since it was programmed with a dpad in mind the game makes you snap to 8 directions instead of the 360 movement of the original. Even if you use a circle pad on 3ds or wii u it is still not programmed for 360 movement. That never bothered me but I do realise it’s a valid complaint. Great video Jirard!

    I ended up growing up with both the n64 version and the ds version. My sister had the n64 version that I played and eventually completed at a pretty young age. Once the ds came around, I no longer had access to the n64 version by normal means, but I was super excited for it. Because I got a limited amount of games, I played it a lot. After school, on car rides, whenever I could really. I enjoyed it a lot to the point where I ended up completing the game not once, not twice, but over ELEVEN times.
    All that said, I really enjoy both versions for their own reasons. I personally prefer the ds version just because it's more polished, but I occasionally would go back and complete mario 64 in a day just because its overall movement just felt special.

Being able to burn those 40 minute bus journeys with your friends was great.
