Pro SM64 speedrunner tries DS version for the first time

Watching one of the best Mario 64 players in the world struggle so hard on the DS version of the same game is so great

Behind the mirror is my favorite secret star in this. I really like some of the things they added

The DS version of 64 means a lot to me, it's like one of the first ds games I remember playing. I can't remember much about the content besides the glass spheres (which you showed in the video) but I still don't think i've completed the game yet. My cartridge went missing a few years ago and I just never saw it again. Funnily enough I have 100% normal mario 64

Holy fuck this video was a nostalgia trip. I vividly remember me unironically using this shitty she loves me game to determine if my crush is gonna like me or not good old times

my stem grew when i saw this upload

10:25 “they couldn’t fix cannonless so they did that” That is the fix, my guy

I always appreciated how much imagination was in this game. It wasn't ever trying to replace the original, but be a completely insane version of it. I always enjoyed having the other characters even if they were a little busted. The DS controls really hold it back especially with the d pad instead of analog controls, and that's honestly a shame because I think it would be tremendously more fun with better controls. Overall, I was always surprised by this game because I thought it would be a lazy port, but it's really so much more than that

"The movement is so bad. I just get locked into angles." Because Mario 64 for the N64 is so much better about not locking you into angles. lmao

I played this game a lot as a kid and I remember when there was a rumor that Waluigi was secretly in the game somewhere. I was a very gullible child and kept stubbornly trying to find his door way longer than I’d like to admit

Fun fact, the Wii U version's got a mod made by the homebrew community which remaps the control stick to the pseudo-joystick touch screen controls.

Mario 64 DS was the first and only version of Mario 64 I've personally played. I absolutely adore it.

I wish they would re-release the DS version with actual good controls. It added so many cool things, but the controls just suck so bad that it's not fun to play.

Ah, good old times when kids could gamble without spending money on games.

Never thought I'd see the day where I'd see a speedrunner legitimately lose the race against koopa the quick.

DS is still the only version ive played. The minigames are fire. As a kid, this shit was mindblowing.

They should’ve released a HD version of the DS game for the switch with all the playable characters. They missed one there

the DS version was my first actual game i’d ever played. On my first console.

I forgot how absolutely broken luigi was in this version!

I dunno why but something about hearing "speedrun Mario 64 for 10 years" and "entire career" makes me wanna laugh and cry at the same time

The DS version is so great, wished Nintendo would re-release it on the Switch.
