> Even on today's high performance CPUs, which are far more sophisticated than the primitive 5-stage scalar in-order R4300 (not sure it even had any branch prediction actually). Be it official or not, I crave for SM64DS with the original controls. I hope we’ll today be able to play a newer version of this game. But this version hugely benefited from the evolution of the Mario universe and the technical superiority of the DS so I’m not even sure it could have been done in the 90’s. I miss this game, it really deserve to have its remake.
The better would have been the enemy of the good.īut in the meantime you are also right because Mario 64 DS was a really good extension. I don’t think the game could have been really better than it is without breaking something and I’m pretty sure that the engineers at Nintendo considered the game as « finished » and liked the result themselves. But, the 6yo me, the player me, they have nothing to criticize about this game.įor me it is still a perfect masterpiece given its era and technical context. For me it’s an amazing proof that they made amazing tradeoffs.īecause, yes, we now have plenty of time to analyse the thing and find issues with the game.

So, like any software with ever, they had to make tradeoffs.Īnd, well, here we are talking passionately about this game 26 years after. Given it was a launching title, they had to stop somewhere and ship the thing. Mario 64 was already pioneering basically everything in the 3D platformers, and maybe even 3D games as a whole.
Is it only a techno limitation concerning the size and details of the levels ?
