    I never played the DS version, and I grew up with the N64 version. But from what I've seen of it, it just has more content, more characters, etc. So I'd say that alone just makes it better, regardless of the simpler controller and whatnot.

    As somebody who played the ds version religiously as a kid and fully completed it more times than I could count, I prefer the original. I will always appreciate the ds version for being the first 3d Mario game I played, but the original is just so much easier to control and the new characters are cool, but having to go all the way to the slide room every time to switch characters really slows down the gameplay at times. However, there is certainly more to do in the ds version and it’s still a ton of fun.

      A lot of thrift stores and second hand have to put higher prices. the problem is that people started a trend of buying items at the thrift store and then selling it online. I know people who run these kind of stores and they would like to lower the price or give things away, but all the local drug addicts who don't work come in and take everything. Then when a desperate person or family in need come, all the good stuff is gone. So they are forced to mark the prices up high. Especially when rich kids started to do it for fun, when they see other people vlogging about their new business ripping of thrift stores and selling on ebay.

    • @mortemomnia
      @mortemomnia 14 дней назад

      @ I’m definitely not saying you’re wrong, but their logic is absolutely moronic and only causes further problems. To start, GoodWill specifically is selling these types of items at scalping price comparative to the same people who sell on places like FB Marketplace and EBay. They’re just as bad as the people you pointed out who are already problematic for the entire economy of these items. Secondly, if the argument is “we have to keep higher prices to keep the crackheads from clearing us out!” then by definition they’re artificially inflating the price, and are creating an unreasonable barrier to entry for less well off individuals anyways. They’re essentially taking the meat and leaving table scraps for the rest of us, and they’re massively profiting off of it, not being altruistic to look out for the average consumer. Goodwill use to honor their namesake, which was to allow people to have access to nice and gently used items who may otherwise not have had a means to do so, but now they’re definitively worse than your average scalper. This isn’t one jackass making a quick buck, it’s a government funded multi-billion dollar corporation profiting off of other’s generosity.

    The fact Nintendo hasn't capitalized on a remaster of this version is actually insane. Nintendo just keeps sleeping on extra money. They are apparently working with third party companies though to ramp up remasters though it's just a rumor if I remember correctly. These rumors are from shaky third rate news sources though and go against Nintendo's tight grip it's had on their IP. Third party developers worked a lot with Nintendo pre-2000 but since Iwata their protectiveness has been extreme. It needs to stop.

    • @legoboy7107
      @legoboy7107 19 дней назад

      Only on a modded 3DS with a specific patch, on a regular 3DS it still maps the circle pad to the 8-directional D-pad controls and keeps the run button, so it doesn't actually improve anything on its own.

  • @SuperJM9
    @SuperJM9 20 дней назад

    The original DS came with the thumb stylus. If you play Super Mario 64 DS using touch mode, you can use the thumb stylus to move Mario with your left thumb with full analog control, no run button required. X and Y move the camera. It's not as good as the N64 analog stick, but it's far better than the dpad or the regular stylus. Even better, with a modded 3DS you can install a patch that enables the use of the circle pad with full analog control, instead of emulating the dpad as it normally does. With a New 3DS ZL/ZR or the c stick can control the camera. Aside from this, there are advantages to both. The camera is far superior in DS, fixing what is probably the biggest issue of the original. Though in standard and dual hand modes camera control is mapped to the touch screen, so it's awkward to use, this isn't a problem in touch mode or with the 3DS analog patch. DS uses the far better wall jump from Sunshine. However, the side jump requires you to run too far to do, making it all but useless. In standard mode (the analog patch works in all modes) you can build up speed by holding B and then wall jump quickly, but that's far more awkward to do than just doing it normally on the N64. So from a control perspective there are advantages to both. The N64 version is definitely still better than DS without the patch. If you want to play DS the best way is, in order: 1. New 3DS with the analog patch in standard mode 2. Regular 3DS with the analog patch in touch mode 3. Any system with the thumb stylus in touch mode Any other control method is a considerable downgrade from that.

    I definitely need to get this game, and mod my 3DS. There’s this plugin that lets you swap out the circle pad and touch screen inputs to give you full 360 degree movement. Your speed is also tied to how far you move the circle stick, like the analog stick for the original. It’s too bad there’s no ROM hacks for the DS game. It would be cool to have custom levels in this. I also agree that it would be awesome to have a ROM back that puts this game into the original.

A couple off the top of my head that I can think of are "Another Super Mario 3D" by the Newer Team (same folks behind the Newer Super Mario Bros. games), and Skelux's Super Mario Star Road (which only has a couple demos but they're quite good themselves), and there's also a hack that demakes Super Mario Sunshine that has had at least one demo.

      @shreksnow1918 22 дня назад

      If you have a modded 3DS there’s either a cheat code or external program that allows you to have the circle stick register as a touch pad. This gives you full 360 movement, and you can change your speed based on how far you’re moving the stick. Haven’t tried that out since I’d need to mod my 3DS, and I’ll also need Mario 64 DS.

      Yeah I was gonna say this too. The DS version is just simply superior in every way; except the dpad control screen on the original DS version. Other than that, it's an incredibly faithful remaster of SM64, with plenty of new stages and stars to collect, all the new playable characters, features, etc... If you play it on the 3DS it's amazing.

    Nintendo remakes of their own games are typically just supplemental content. Things like Mario RPG or TTYD remakes of course no, as they serve to just remove content and replace the original. But stuff like Mario 64DS and 3D World + Bowser's Fury is basically a DLC release that includes the full game. I think in this particular case, 64DS should only really be played after playing the real thing. And not back to back either, it's meant to be 64 through a different lens after nostalgia kicks in.
