- Super Mario 64 has a large variety of different stages, some of which being some of the most unique in the entire series. However, due to this being the first 3D Mario game, a few themes had to be repeated. This includes the snow theme which is seen in Cool Cool Mountain and Snowman’s Land. So in today’s episode of Level By Level we are going to compare CCM and SL together to see which is Mario 64’s BEST Snow stage? We’ll also be putting each of these level’s stars into a tier list!

The Greatest Video Ever Made: • Cool Bowser Dances to ... - Hry
Missed opportunity to say something like "I think Cool, Cool Mountain is the cooler stage, but it's not cooler than Cool Bowser *cue Cool Bowser dancing to Elctrodrome*"
Cool Bowsers dead. Did you not go to the funeral?
Rip
and then everyone clapped
@@abokoblin2156 why would anyone not clap ?
👏 💀 👏 💀 👏
@@Nokyyyyywhy not?
Odyssey central once again proving he is a professional at yapping and can't make videos under 20 minutes
I mean at least the 200K special is finished
@@BrianCannan-em1nk its not finished, only the script is done he still needs to make the actual vid
@@EvanGd555 that’s what I meant, at least he’s done with the script so he’s not taking away time on writing it for 20 minute videos
If you gave me the time to yap about the games I would have made like an hour long video already.
Nah this Level By Level is Cold 💀
ice pun you got there buddy

Brrr im so cold ❄🥶🥶 i wish i had an 8 hour ranking every 2d mario level to warm me up..
patience :)

I'll be honest, It took me a while as a kid to realize they where completely different levels, since the painting you jump trough in the mirror's reflection is the same as cool cool mountain's painting
random fact you probably already know: the background music for the snow levels and slider follow the motif of bob-omb battlefield
Holy shit how have I never made that connection?
same with slider
Mario 64 basically had like three songs remixed over and over
Th intro and file select too
As Cool as Cool Cool Mountain is, I just don’t think the coolness of Cool Cool Mountain is as Cool as the Coolness of my Cool boy, Cool Bowser who was dancing to the cool music
Cool Cool Bowser
7:40 I thought it was a nice touch to have Dedede's theme playing on the level centered around penguins :)
If only Bowser was in one of these, it would be a canon "cool" Bowser appearance
I always love his Mario64 thumbnails because they always look so funny, like what is Mario doing next to that penguin? He looks so scared! What did the penguin do to him?!?!
Both of these levels are cool
Pun indeed
Both by cold and by cool bowser
ya mean cold son?
very cool comment
yeah.
The streak of having Creator in every single video continues!
I’m partial towards Cool Cool Mountain as it has a better atmosphere and has more memorable elements. CCM feels both barren and cozy, has a slide, and has cute penguins (you’re a monster if you throw them off the edge), whilst Snow Man’s Land has the giant snowman, the igloo, and the underrated Chill Bully.
yo what the penguin doin in the thumbnail💀
TCNICK3
I remember Snowmans Land was one of the stages I didn't find until after beating the game, along with Shifting Sand Land. Also, Big Penguin Race was one of the last stars I completed cuz I couldn't beat the slide without the shortcut for a while.
One thing you didn't mention about Whirl from the Freezing Pond; If you are in the water while jumping on the Spindrifts, the Spindrifts will instantly die for some reason. Idk if this is a glitch, but it made the star much more frustrating.
i NEVER knew that the penguin “gains weight” after you get all 120 stars. it’s so wild to learn new things about a game i played as a kid over 20 years ago 😭
Fun fact for 12:17: for "snowman lost his head" just punch, kick or bump into the head and the body will automatically recognize and connect with it.
12:06 The snowman wants head? Relatable
Sadly, none of them have Batman 😔
nintendo really should've done this
NINTENDO ADD BATMAN
Mfw no The Man who Cools😔😔😔
fun fact:
The snowman enemies are called Mr. Blizzards
This is a great video! Great job on this
I just played through Super Mario 64 for the first time a couple weeks ago... it was peak.
Excellent video, I have never seen such in-depth analysis of the Mario level. Basically agree with everything said in this video.
Funny enough, on my very 1st play through of super mario 64 in 3D all stars, for cool cool mountain's 6 star "wall kicks for work" i found it and got it early by complete accident. I was going for the 8 red coins star when i accidently fall off the mountain to what i thought was certain death, but i somehow managed to land on the platform leading up to the star. That was some serious luck on my side!
This levels are so chill. They’re really cool.
Good luck on the 200k special
Am I the only person that got to the bottom of Cool Cool Mountain by jumping on a Spindrift and hovering down? I honestly didn't know there was another way to get there until I was an adult
I think most people did this
Cool Cool Mountain will always be SSS tier for me because it taught child me the important lesson of manipulation, grief, and sacrifice (aka throwing the baby penguin off the cliff in front of his mother)
Idk anything about Mario 64 I just like hearing you talk
you need to touch two checkpoints along the snowman’s route in order to get the star, which I bet is why you the snowman sometimes misses you at the end
I was kind of distracted while watching the video but when I heard Creator I instantly put my full focus on it
coolest level by level yet, odyssey!
Kaze emanuar uploaded a video as to why the snowman's body just ignores you sometimes
Finally, a level by level set in Canada
I really love and hate you for not mentioning the *2* in Snowman's Land
idk if its already been said buuuuuut:
another youtuber actually explains the wonkiness of the snowman head star. its the hitbox thats extremely off center. u can't just go infront of or right behind the head. u have to be standing a bit a bit to the...right? of the body for it to trigger the head to go the the body. if u dont go into the hitbox, the head wont go to the body. i suck at explaining things so just look up the snowhead head star and u should find it. he explains it way better than i ever could XD
Pretty cool video 🧊
For someone whose favourite games are Mario and Minecraft, I can't believe you haven't talked about the Mario mash-up pack on Nintendo versions of Minecraft.
I feel you would rant about about every aspect of the map, skins,textures etc.
Why would you buy Minecraft on an underpowered console? Other than for the toad skin.
For the snowman head star you are supposed to let the big head follow you. That means go down in front of it within its "vision" the whole time. If it "loses sight of you" then it won't follow you at the end and you will lose the chance for the star. The fact the game does not communicate this concept to the player well at all makes this well deserving of the F-tier that you gave it in the video as many don't even know about these mechanics.
Just punch, kick or bump into the head and the body will automically follow and connect with it, yes it's not explained but he also gave "lil penguin lost" an S for a risky shortcut most people wouldn't do on their first playtroughs.
Next: comparing every bowser stage in Mario 64
"Cool Cool Mountain has higher peaks"
I see what you did there
Bro likes juxtaposing his regular voice with his deep voice for comedic effect 😆
When I was a kid, I would always go into the CCM-slide first when I wanted to get the 100 coin star, but I get that it's a genuine complaint for some.
Snowman's land is just fun for me and idk why , its kinds like lethal lava land where it's a big open stage and I think that makes it fun , CCM is great too
level by level by level by level by level by level by level
super mario
Even if you don't really like the galaxy games, i think a comparison of the fire and levels in galaxy 1 vs 2 would be a cool video
11:33 The music and footage timing was perfect!
15:29 ackshually there's a very good reason watch the invisible wall video
Did you know that the snowman star checks if you collected the coins in the slide I discover this after wasting several hours trying to complete that level
Odyssey really has no chill after making this 🥶🥶🥶
Hi i know your last one didnt perform well but could you consider making another totk video? It doesnt need to be anything big. Thanks for making vids btw they make my day
16:22 you can WHAT?!?!
now that Peach and Zelda have their own games, I hope Nintendo gives Mario his own game 😔
I forgot Snowman's Land existed. I guess ot didn't have a strong gimmick that made me remember it after all these years.
Average CaseOh workout: 10:24
Merging these two levels would be awesome plus you could create another star by sending the other baby penguin to the other penguin on the bridge.
cool video 👍
Cool Cool Mountain is my favorite stage in SM64, an easy S-tier for me. Even though, yes, it does have one bad star, but on the plus side, it"s a short one that you can restart quickly if you fail.
I love watching people react to the penguin mission for the first time and seeing their hatred for the baby penguin evolve as the level goes on 😂
I love this channel you should rank every mario enemy for 300k special
20:25 - 20.29
The cannon is useful for getting the star on the Snowman's head. Try it out if you don't believe me.
Do all three bowser stage ranking next!
I’M FREAKING FREEZING OUT HERE MAN🥶☃️⛄️
Out of the two stages in this game, I'm personally on team CCM. I think the slide is pretty fun and the missions are pretty solid. (except for star 5, I'm glad we can agree that star sucks) Star 6 is my personal favorite from CCM, I like how it makes you have to search through the level thoroughly to find a remote area that you're not likely to find on a first playthrough. It also rewards you with teaching you about wall jumps, which is something I doubt most players are gonna think to do on their first playthrough.
also wtf happened to mario at 16:22
I have so much nostalgia for the Mario 64 OST but it had nothing to do with the actual game it's just because they used it in Minecraft Wii U edition
Odyssey should be hired by Nintendo!😀
Notifications turned on is cool 😎, you get to watch odyssey central’s newest videos as soon as they’re out
Please do Shifting Sand Land vs Lethal Lava Land 🔥🔥🔥
Mr.Odessey you should have mentioned the extra star in these stages in Super Mario 64 DS.
I guess you could say cool cool mountain is pretty... cool
* Cool Bowser Plays *
15:32 What would Mario 64 be without random walls that can kill you, because they actually are OOB
I think Cool (Bowser) Cool (Bowser) Mountain looks really Cool (Bowser)
I like cool cool mt just because of the slide section which is my second favourite behind tall tall mt and the lost penguin mission
3:50 Nice jab at that guy
Cool cool mountain is better cause I like throwing baby penguins off cliffs.
I would be interested in a shorter comparison of the three bowser stages :)
What about the two wingcap stages? Or LLL and fire sea? Those could be interesting discussions.
The snowman sabotaged Cool Cool Mountain with Snowman's Lost His Head, and that's just a theory, A GAME-
Odyssey central video 11 of asking odyssey central to rank every set of wheels in Mario kart 8 deluxe
Fun fact: Tork drift from mario odyssey is meant to be based on the spindrifts, as tork is a a stronger for spinning
Cool Cool Mountain is too cool
You can also shoot to the top of the snowman if you unlock the cannon.
The SNES Super Mario games didn’t have very many snow-themed courses, so I don’t mind that the main Super Mario game on the following console had two of them.
Nice cool mountains
Also, proposal for 250 or 300 thousand subscribers: ranking every spirit battle in smash ultimate, maybe? 🤔 🤔🤔
It's like the last one, but the levels are actually good
3:50 that CZcamsr is a big Meme
for Snowman’s Land first star I normally just skip the climbing and just use the canon
Odyssey For 300k can you rank every Minecraft block
Nintendo try not to use double adjectives naming their levels challenge
CCM reds is probably in my top 3 red coin stars in the game
You better say the- Oh wait, this isn’t a ranking video
That red coin on that unconnected platform - literally just jump off the warp at the start. As for the snowman star, you cannot skip any parts of the slide, or it will break.
You can just punch, kick or bump into the head and the body will automically connect with it.
@@mrpiccionedivino5598 I was trying to punch the body into the head.
Oops.
@@mrpiccionedivino5598I thought i knew everything about 64 until I read this.
You said lava like a thousand flipping times! Not cool dude
😎🐢
Day about 180 of asking odyssey to rank every building part in smm2
Keep grinding 💀
I got mario oddessey recently. My second game on the switch.
Im with you on star 5 of cool cool mountain. I always found getting ut very inconsistent
Just punch, kick or bump the head before the body reaches it and it will recognize and connect with it in most cases.
If you want a short Level by Level video or just a short video, then do the Aquarium.
