Images or even videos from this development do not exist, it is not even clear whether a working prototype was ever implemented for the intended game. Miyamoto was enthusiastic about the technology and decided that the next Mario adventure after the acclaimed Super Mario World should use the same technology. Around 19, Nintendo was working on Star Fox, which used the new Super FX chip to display 3D effects. What we now know as Super Mario 64 started much earlier on Super Nintendo. A Plumber’s Early YearsĮverything could have turned out differently. Super Mario 64 wasn’t the first 3D game, not even the first 3D jump and run.īut in contrast to the competition, it showed at the first attempt how it was done correctly and brought with it numerous other “firsts”: The first blockbuster game that relied on analog stick control the first to offer a real, freely rotating camera the first to establish how Collectathons work, a subgenre that should dominate both the N64 and PS1 portfolios in the years to come after the release. Where the chubby Italian previously only moved from left to right, a whole world was suddenly open to us to explore.
The first 3D excursion by the world’s most famous plumber is still considered an absolute milestone not only in the jumping game genre, but in the video game world itself.
Super Mario 64: Just say the title of the adventure and many players fall into sweet raptures. On the occasion of the 35th birthday of the most famous plumber in the world and the resurrection of the adventure as part of Super Mario 3D Allstars, we look back on his first 3D appearance and thus on perhaps the most important video game of all time. Milestone, revolution, trailblazer, turning point: there are not enough grandiose terms to put the relevance of the N64 adventure Super Mario 64 into words. With all these unique mods being released for retro games, it will be interesting to see what other games will be modded or turned into potential VR experiences in the future.Super Mario 64: Perhaps the most important video game of all time Although the video only went up to the boss within the Great Deku Tree, the mod was still able to demonstrate how the game could function and perform in VR. In the past, the modder released a video demonstrating The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in VR mode. For example, Kaze Emanuar managed to recreate Super Mario 64's Shifting Sand Land level in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, thus recreating the entire interior and exterior locations while incorporating puzzles that are native to The Legend of Zelda game.Īside from recreating games within other games, Kaze Emanuar's other works include Virtual Reality (VR) mods for retro games. If Kaze Emanuar's name sounds familiar, that is because he is the same person who created a lot of retro mods and ROM hacks for games like Super Mario 64 in the past.
