The original soulless demake.

It's retroactively soulful because it could never be made today. Just Wario being playable in a mainline game alone makes it an anomaly.

I'd always take this game to church with me when I was a kid and play it on my DS. I'm american and the Church was full of Evangelical boomers so they didn't care that I wasn't listening to the goy propaganda as long as I had the volume muted

>>717153963
that and it also has a mini game where you play blackjack with Luigi inside a casino. that sort of shit can't be shown on games anymore

>>717153318 (OP)
64DS still has a Lot more soul than Sunshine.

>>717154505
Galaxy kiddies will say the most retarded shit

>>717153318 (OP)
you're a soulless demake, fucking retarded faggot.

You know what they say, all penises cum on OP

The controls are fucking garbage.

>>717157478
you could use the touch screen if you needed to make precise movements.

>>717153318 (OP)
Actually better than the original. Only faggots who don't know how to use D-pads properly complain.

>>717157478
Just like this thread

>>717157532
> touch screen for movement
Yeah like I said, fucking garbage.

>>717157573
you don't use need to use it throughout the entire game, just certain parts. it's not a big deal.

It’s not so bad with the circle pad hack or whatever it was if you modded your 3DS. I think it also removes the need to hold the button down to sprint too.

>>717157754
i really wanna try that soon. it looks so cool.

Wario being playable in a 3d Mario game makes it soulful, current Nintendo would never do that

>>717153318 (OP)
The new stars were shit and the new characters didn't work, but I respect the effort. I'd rather they try to improve the game and fail than just do a straight port.

>>717157605
Either way its still garbage, especially the camera controls compared to n64.

>>717153963
>M-muh Wario! MUH Goomba King!

SM64DS is the start of the proto Mario Mandate. All enemies got modern soulless redesigns.

>>717153318 (OP)
after growing up i have to admit its a demake but it is certainly not soulless.

>>717157532
i did this when i played it on release with the little plastic thumb strap they give you to use the touch screen.
ended up scratching the shit out of it within a week and taking it back for a replacement

me and a friend skipped school, we went into some apartment building and just sat in it playing the find luigi mini game

was kino

>>717159394
Kind of. Goomboss was basically ripped straight from Paper Mario 64, which is pretty soulful.

>>717153318 (OP)
>demake
How?

>>717157478
How the fuck are you getting filtered by up-down-left-right

I preferred it over the original

>>717154505
>Sunshine
Why people hate this game again?

>>717161528
because it's not mario 64

>>717161528
>blue coins
>secret shines are pretty shitty

At least the movement is good.

>>717161030
Worse art direction, using the bland, homogenised designs of the mid-2000s
Worse level design
Worse stars
Adding advertisements for other games
Needlessly inhibiting the abilities of Mario in order to justify the inclusion of new playable characters

>>717161528
Shit level design and soulless art style.

>>717160737
Where is Luigi?

>>717161592
Only the last one is valid. The graphics were better and barely anything was changed with the levels. More stars were added, not removed.

>>717161707
>The graphics were better
They were utterly soulless even if you ignore the horrible artstyle

>>717161707
>The graphics were better
The graphics are almost always better in demakes, though even that is debatable with 64DS. It's the art direction that is much worse. Replacing the original designs with the nu-Nintendo designs was a mistake.
>More stars were added, not removed.
And the game is worse for their inclusion, especially since most simply revolve around beating a timer or using one of the shoehorned new abilities.

Playing through it now. 64 stars in. It's alright, but the camera is fucking with me in some of the later levels

>>717162115
>Touches Wario

You know, with how much I see Mario 64 being modded over the years, I'm surprised I've never seen someone try to demake 64DS in it's entirety into the original games engine.

Blew my mind to see that the broken Luigi propeller jump was actually planned for the N64 version.

>>717153318 (OP)
it was maybe a little too ambitious for its own good, but it still managed to have some soul to it

i fell for this shit

>>717153318 (OP)
Nope. DQ3 saw multiple soulless remakes even before the modern soulless remake came out.

>>717161528
I hate the physics so goddamn much. If you're just playing the game and doing the bare minimum to beat the game, its fine. If you're going for 100% it's a goddamn nightmare

>>717160737
>we went into some apartment building and just sat in it playing
And afterwards you guys sucked each other off, right?

>>717169046
what made you gay?

>>717161528
The game itself isn't bad but there is literally zero point to any of the secret shines because none of them contribute towards anything or to beating the game. In 64 and Galaxy, ever star you collected mattered. In Sunshine, you just need to do the first 6 (I think) episodes of each level to beat the game, rather than a star count like 64 and Galaxy. And if you decide to go for all stars, you don't unlock a new character like you do in Galaxy. It makes doing everything that isn't the main story feel very pointless, especially when 99% of the secret shines are not fun at all.

>Today is an important day. This is the first time that you, Kurt, shall 90 to the castle

>>717153318 (OP)
That game would be fun if they fixed the controls though. The minigames did have soul. The main problem with that game is the controls

>>717153318 (OP)
It wasn't really a remake.

I can't remember if I owned that game as a kid or not and it's the biggest Mandela effect of my life. I mean, I still have my DS and all the games but that one is missing. Maybe I sold it since I remember selling Pokemon Diamond and Mario Kart DS.

>>717153318 (OP)
zoomers will say that mario 64 had bad controls and then claim this is the superior version

>>717154350
the gambling games had good odds so they probably made a few thousand kids into gambling addicts

it's actually soulful as fuck if you're not a nostalgia blind 40 year old

>>717172365
Someone stole it dork

I used to have a copy

>>717153318 (OP)
Thats not Super Mario All-Stars for the SNES

>>717172786
Played this on Wii U, not a bad way to play it.

>>717153318 (OP)
It's actually soulful because it looks like a ps1 game

>>717153318 (OP)
>An attempt to crunch 64 on a handheld, with added content and even co-op
The Soul vs. Soulless thread trend started with the Crash N.Sane Trilogy and the Spyro Reginited Trilogy

>>717173901
bluepoint sotc came out before either of those

>>717174007
Yeah but soul/soulless wasn't an established meta-posting trend at that time.

>>717169552
sitting alone in some apartment building with a friend playing the find luigi mini game

DS version is objectively better than the N64 one

I'm sure you can find examples even earlier than this, even if kids didn't give a fuck because getting 4 or 5 Mario games to play on their SNES was fucking awesome.

>>717153318 (OP)

i wanted to try this like a decade ago when the first hack for this came out but i forgot, gonna bite the bullet now
i liked sm64ds somewhat but it's definitely a dumbed down retard-core version of sm64 and the controls are awful
