Same here man. Brings back fond memories trying to beat this game with my older sister when we were kids. Hope they play the same ending song in the new Mario movie.
3:59 is the part that gets to me the most with the tone of the music used there. In the world of Super Mario 64, Koopa The Quick was like your best friend.
Love this theme. Sometimes I can almost envision this song being played at a graduation ceremony or farewell party or something like that. Idk why but that just seems like that's the tone it evokes.
No DLC, no continuation, no achievements, no special prizes for doing certain things; just a small adventure with a wonderful ending and a feeling of nostalgia that shall last a lifetime.
While some people say that this game hasn't age as well, I'd argue that, on the contrary, it's amazing how well it has aged. The minor camera issues are only apparent when you compared to games that were made years latter. Try finding 3d platformers from the era that play as well as SM64 and I can tell you won't find that many. Off the top of my head, I can only think of Bajo Kazooie and Tooie, the Spyro games and Rayman 2. Still, none of those games would have been made without Mario 64 serving as a template. Mario 64 laid the foundations for 3d gaiming, and it's pretty much as good as you remember.
He's just the producer and director. I find the course designers, graphicians and programmers more important. Shigeru is just the 1 who love being in the spotlight.

@@AidentheTechBoy-lv9gl Thanks but I'm fully aware of that. It wasn't listed like that because the scene from that world was already shown or not in order. 3:59 is the true view for Tiny Huge Island because of the order before and after it.
I think I really can say that this gives me some feelings and nostalgia. Though I'm relatively young, I had the opportunity to play this game on Project64 when I was 8 or so. It was glorious moment when me and one of my friends finished the game!
Esta melodía es en definitiva la más nostalgica para mi, me traé mil sentimientos felices ❤❤❤ esta y la intro de Ocarina, esa me eriza la piel con tan solo las primeras notas
something about just seeing the little man look at me in the end like he knows i'm there, and the final scene with him is just so... i can't describe it, but it makes me tear up
When I watch this ending, I remember when I was a little kid and my mom were playing until finish the game just to hear the ending song because she likes it a lot. I love you mom.
THE best looking game that came out before April 15, 1997. Period. In the pre-4/15/1997 era, it seemed Playstation or Saturn didn't have anything that could hold a candle to this technically. Of course, the PS would eventually come out with games that looked better than this, such as Final Fantasy IX (11/13/00) and Tekken 3 (4/29/98), but the N64 still remained competitive especially after the memory expansion pack came out in 1999.

If I had to make a list of my favorite video game endings, this would most likely be #1. Mainly because this ending does what other games either don't do or attempt to do: make the player feel like they accomplished something. Everything from the visuals, the dialogue, and of course the beautiful song all culminating to the line "thank you so much for playing my game" from mario will always bring a smile not only to my face but to others as well. It's an ending that truly feels like the celebration of the hero saving the day and the way mario looks up at the sky right at the player before entering the castle lets us know that we helped him do it, it's his own way of saying thank you without even speaking. This ending is what makes this game so replayable to me and I'll gladly get all 120 stars just to get to this point again and again
When I hear Princess Peach say "let's make a delicious cake... for Mario" and the song starts playing, something in my heart breaks and I start crying a lot,Without a doubt, Mario 64 was an important part of my childhood.
That part with the wiggler is definitely the shot I remember most in the credits sequence. But my favourite shot is the one starting at 4:15. Such a viewtiful song.
When I beat this game I was so happy. I freakin’ loved the music. I beat the game with 64 Stars. I only cheating the “Endless” Stairs. Don’t judge me. I had trouble.
:D this game reminds me being 7-8 years old, coming home fast and play it for hours :P.. This tune is a very worth prize for any good player and will forever be with me as a symbol of my childhood!
I'm 36 years old, and I've played a lot of games in my years but nothing has felt quite the same as when we beat this game. That time in our lives, the world wasn't complete shit. I'd love to go back..
This song making me imagining of the retirement of Charles Martinet and I cried a lot. Thank You for voicing as Mario, Luigi, Wario and Waluigi, Charles Martinet. You are the true legend of Super Mario. Good luck as a Super Mario ambassador
I am currently 12, I grew up with a N64 and a GameCube, I always played games such as Super Mario 64 and Sunshine, i'm glad it wasn't something like Call of duty...this song is so happy but so sad...
It seems not even Nintendo understands the profound brilliance of this game. I've been waiting for almost 20 years for a spiritual successor and I'm still waiting.
Flop inator not the switch. This asshole doesn't know what he's talking about. Its a good console but you'll never relive such an amazing experience in this life time. I mean oddysee was great but no where near 64 and its not Nintendo's fault in a way Mario 64 ushered in a new era for video games and that only happens so many times in one life time.
how come this made me almost tear up but endings of games i actually played and hold a special place in my heart never did??? kirby return to dreamland is my favourite videogame OF ALL TIME and was a huge part of my childhood and shaping up my love for the Kirby series, so its ending is the closest i ever got to this, but EVEN THEN it doesn't even come close to the ending of this game i barely ever played because i never even knew i owned an N64 for most of my life?? what???? that's how good this ending is. it is just wonderful and makes me wanna buy a copy of Mario 64, pop it into my recently discovered N64, and play through all of it. and i will. OH YEAH I WILL. Let's just hope the day will come soon.
Best. Console Ever.IMB. they may not be as popular as Playstation or X-Box, But over the Years they've made some very good stuff. this one of the best ever. Long Live Miyamoto-Sensei

This hits really hard after all this years. Mario was a big part of my childhood, even now that I'm 24 years old. Listening to this song brought a tear to my eyes, I remembered when I used to spend hours playing. So fun. I got sentimental here! Help! Ps: I really, REALLY hope that in the film the credits being like this video (or similar) that after the first song, comes this credit song, and hearing Mario at the end say "thank you so much for to watching my movie". That'd make me cry xDdDdD
I can't figure this out- Ocarina of Time had a much more deep, emotional plot than this game and a bittersweet, coming of age ending but at end you feel accomplished and proud, ready for your next adventure. As the credits roll you know you've done well. This game had a simple, cartoonish plot and a cheerful, happy ending. But as the music plays and the credits roll, it feels so nostalgic and sad. It's like you're saying goodbye and leaving a part of you behind.
Am I the only one who can't help crying whenever I see the credits for this game?
no, i cry too c,:
Not at all
This + MarioKart64 and Super Mario World always make cry.
Same here man. Brings back fond memories trying to beat this game with my older sister when we were kids. Hope they play the same ending song in the new Mario movie.

The credits theme gave me goosebumps. ITS SO GOOD!
Me too
I was hoping Mario Odyssey's ending was going to live up to this ending.
DrawStuff Odyssey was pretty lackluster. I was really hoping they put the 64 into peaches castle world too
heckin' main overworld themes as ending themes... I'mma blame Sunshine for that.
Heck even Peach attempts to accept Bowser when he proposes
La escena del festival en Nueva Donk está a a la altura, ya qué la canción de Jump up super Star y toda la estética del nivel es increíble ✨

When the character you play as thanks you for playing their game, that’s how you know you played a video game that changed the entire industry.
Now it hits even harder knowing that Charles Martinet is no longer voicing Mario.
