The added levels are all good (Sunshine Isles is a cute nod to SMS), different characters are nice (Luigi is absolutely goated in this game), the minigames are awesome, the updated graphics are visually pleasing, and, most obviously, 64 itself is a great game. However, the controls are… fucking awful. Even playing using the 3DS circle pad just doesn’t feel right compared to analog control in the older versions. Having to walk all the way to that one little room just to switch characters is a chore. Wario is practically useless and is vastly inferior to the other three. Basically, the original is better.
