Today i decided to take it easy now that my Week is starting to lay off. I decided to Celebrate both 150 days and All my Finals finishing up, by playing a game important to me. I ended up playing Super Mario 64.

I have very fond memories of playing this on the Wii with the virtual console. The lagoon specifically seen in this image used to terrify me. When i was younger i guess i didn't understand where the water ended so it looked like a endless plane of water. I was terrified something was out there in the water. Swimming in it was a scar experience. I also have really vivid memories of the Grate nearby purely because i spent so much time here:

Another fond Memory of this game i have is King Bombomb. Something about his boss fight is so memorable to me. I don't know if it's because it's simple but fun, or just that i've played it so many times. I wouldn't mind if he came back in a new Mario game though like with Whomp's Fortress in Galaxy 2

If you notice the icons on the bottom left, that's emuchievments from decky. I wanted to try and get an achievement with it, so i did one where i have to walk to the top of the mountain. I ended up clipping it because something about it stood out to me. I think it's surreal to see mario walking around when usually he's jumping.

I only ended up doing Bombomb battlefield, but i cleared all Stars Except the 100 coin one

I definitely understand the eel lol. It wasn't super terrifying to me but the first time I saw that level it creeped me out. Jolly Roger bay is still one of my favorite levels though
