and the non-linearity give a great sense of freedom and the cart is loaded with secrets. The bad thing is that there are only 15 courses, but there are so many secret levels, stars, and areas, (infact in one case there is a whole NEW part to the level). Sometimes, the control can be a hassle, but Overall, a classic made portable, with 4 unique characters, amazingly clever puzzles, and being the best looking and LONGEST DS game yet, this is truly A MUST have version to get, whether you have the original or not. I have played THE original version of Super Mario 64 (ok, not mine, a friend's copy) and I don't remember if the control was any better, but I remember it wasn't so hard to ground pound a frickin stake.What's new -A slightly altered intro, and you start off as Yoshi, and unlock Mario, and optionally Luigi and Wario, with each having a special ability after gaining the power flower. -Improved Visuals -30 new stars -Mini Games (not to mention a bunch of rabbits holding keys which allow you to unlock more) -New multiplayer "battle mode" So the new stars add some value and a few minutes for grabbing rabbits.So far I have logged around 23 hours and have 71 stars.
I guess I just expected really different levels as well. It takes a little while to get used to the handling, but then so did the original. If you enjoyed the original, you'll enjoy this version. You get to use other characters with different abilities.
Really enjoyed playing. Having the different characters to play adds a new dynamic. Overall, great game. I didn't read much about this game, but I remember really liking the orginal Super Mario 64. When I started I was a little surprised to be playing Yoshi, but I've played through and I have to say, the changes are definitely good changes that make the game more fun and interesting.
The controls are clunky and hurt your fingers.Don't Buy it new. This game is disappointing.
Tons of fun, my kids (2.5 and 5 yrs) love playing the mini games and trying to play the real game (watching the characters run around
