If it wasn't for it's horrible controls, this would be my favorite 3D Mario game.
And where is Waluigi?! Come on, Nintendo. Give our purple plumber boy a chance.

My 3DS says 46 minutes... I definitely played a ton of this. I'm not sure that I made much progress, but it was awesome to just roam around and play the minigames on road trips. I don't think there's ever been a better minigame collection.

Werid DS update that have a lot of quality of life like new stars and new playable character (Yoshi and Luigi being great) that limit to a d-pad but I still play this over based 64

This is an excellent remake of the original. I love the concept of taking old classics and adding new content to them. This adds 30 new stars, a handful of new levels, four new playable characters, and fun minigames. This is mandatory playing for all owners of the Nintendo DS.

does anyone else think its insane that this came out only eight years after the original? thats like if Mario Odyssey got a handheld remake literally next year and it somehow had better graphics

only thing holding this back from being earnestly better than the original is the tank controls. however. im extremely attached to this one

Used to play this all the time, pretty fun but not the best way to play SM64
