Super Mario 64, released in 1996 for the Nintendo 64, wasn't just a game; it was a revolution. It took the beloved side-scrolling plumber and thrust him into a glorious, perplexing, and utterly captivating 3D world.
This wasn't just a cosmetic change. Super Mario 64 introduced a freedom of movement that was unheard of at the time. Players could explore expansive environments, filled with secrets and challenges, at their own pace. Jumping, a core mechanic of the franchise, became a full-fledged art form with the introduction of the wall jump, long jump, and triple jump.
