Day 169 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (pixelfed.social)

Today's game is Super Mario 64. I've done the First and got too the second bowser level. I took this screenshot while climbing up the stairs to the first battle. There's something i love about these stairs and the bowser levels at large.

I also went to Jolly Roger Bay and tried to get that damn eel. I ended up drowning while trying to get to the surface and where i died was right before the top. It ended up looking like he was choking himself or drowning on air:

I also did the Penguin on the Snowy mountain. I think i can say i made everyone proud dropping it off the mountain (Though i took myself with it)

I also caught Mips and got this screenshot of him looking like his day was ruined. I surprisingly did it in record time and it only took me three attempts to catch the damn thing. I took him into Lethal Lava land with me shortly after this picture. I lost him while there but i imagine he's still there.

All I can think of is Nintendo trying to sue this post or something.

Happy New Year! Love the content.

One of my all time favorites. There's something special about the N64, these games were magical as a kid and a lot of them still hold up today.

I used to play through Ocarina almost every year but it's been about a decade and I started a playthrough last week. People have made some incredible progress on updating textures and such to make the game look more modern 👌

I stopped playing consoles after my first Sega Mega Drive (most of the games I like work better on M+KB), but I've been meaning to try and play some N64 games in an emulator. And HD texture and quality mods would be a nice addition.

People say this game has not aged well, I only partially agree with that. Ps2 was my first 3d game console and I played this game on the wii virtual console, and I was just amazed by it. So much so that I thought I should try other n64 games too, but was disappointed at how awfully all of them controlled. This game really did set the bar.

Tagging onto this. Has anyone tried to play Glover recently? That used to be one of my favorites as a kid and I keep thinking about emulating it.

I think the controls are one of the few things impacting its age. They’re difficult to get right on modern hardware with the One Stick design. Especially the Wii U gamepad. I played that version and Mario just did not control well for me. I don’t know what it was
