I don't think I've ever gotten as angry playing a puzzle game as I did with Dr. Mario 64.

This whole game confounds me. Why are the CPU players so frustratingly difficult to fight? What is even going on with the bizarre "plot" in the story mode? Why is it full of C-list Wario Land characters instead of more typical Mario characters? I'm just so mystified. Couldn't you have just done a roster of characters more akin to the Mario Kart or Party games of the era?

At the end of the day, Dr. Mario 64 plays fine and looks decent... but I don't know if I would ever want to go back.
