As revolutionary as this game clearly was and is still fun today; games from this generation haven't aged the best. Mostly in the way of camera control before we figured out dual sticks. It feels like the camera is actively trying obscure where you want to jump at every turn. Perhaps there is some mod that could introduce modern camera control if I was using less official means of emulation but I was just using the official emulator on the Switch. I also found Mario could be quite awkward to control at times. His movement could be quite slippy at times and he often did a big dramatic turn when I just wanted to turn right around with a micro movement. Also getting caught hanging onto ledges. I can admit this may be a skill issue as I've watched enough Games Done Quick to know how fluid the movement can be. Still, my problems aside, it still is fun to play and tracking down stars is very satisfying. I did enjoy it more once I swallowed my pride and embraced using save states in the emulator to make my own checkpoints. Video games owes a lot to Super Mario 64 even if my patience for it these days doesn't stretch too far.
