That just tells you that how high up you were when you entered the painting directly correlated to how high the stage’s water level was; i.e. entering at the lowest possible point would set the water level to be just about ground level, and entering at nearly the highest possible would essentially flood the entire stage.

My brothers told me rumors about several of the game's levels and terrifying monsters that could supposedly show up in them. In some cases, they were real (like the piano, unagi, and the shark). But they also warned me about terrifying elemental spiders that would show up if you spent too much time in Wet Dry World's Town, or that the center of the Dire Dire Docks Whirl pool housed a piranha that you could free and that would chase you. I avoided Jolly Roger Bay entirely in my childhood playthrough, only ever visiting it one time after watching one of them do the cavern star, thus I never got to even see the world's main attraction in the floating/sunken ship.

I feel like what helps make SM64 feel scary is that this is one of the first times many gamers felt immersed into a world beyond their own. It was not at all like the world that these gamers have experienced before, being fairly empty feeling and imposing at times. Furthermore, you did mention how Wet Dry Land has this mysterious aura surrounding it, however, I believe that can apply many, if not all levels in Super Mario 64. The world is immersive after all, seeing such abstract environments in this world can be very uneasy. These paintings also pose several questions about the Mario universe, sure, Mario games often never made sense, but this is the first time we are seeing this in a 3D environment, where everything looks different. It's like there's a story here much deeper than what meets the eye. The game is often very atmospheric, even to this day. That, combined with the world looking unfinished, where there is clearly a void beyond the outer edges of the world and the low poly characters, give a sorta suffocating feeling. I think another thing that's worth mentioning are all of the hidden secrets throughout the whole game, giving the impression that this world is practically endless in terms of potential hiding behind it. Anything can appear, whether it's a giant sea monster under a swamp, a toxic gas maze, a living piano creature, etc.

I've always loved the unsettling factor this game had on 4 year old me. Compared to the more lively games I played at the time (Mario Party, Banjo-Kazooie, OOT) SM64 had this loneliness to it but in a way that felt like someone was here before. Mario Party was something I played with my brother and sisters and it was always playing cheery music and Bowser was just screwing with you, in Banjo you played as a duo character while often bantering with Bottles and other random animals, whenever you saw a town or building in Zelda people were living there. By comparison in Mario 64 music was often cheery yes but also was often sinister and Bowser genuinely wanted to kill you and wanted Peach for more then "lol I'm an incel" that newer games make him out to be, you are completely alone on the journey, there were buildings and signs that suggested stuff goes on around here but you rarely saw anyone. Bob-omb Battlefield had the most NPCs in it but they were at war with each other

Of all the things you mentioned, Mario's drowning animation is the one that stuck with me the most as a kid. One you kind of touched on was the "sky" box in the first Bowser stage. I remember looking down over the edge of one of the floating platforms and being chilled by the appearance of an infinite vastness below, and nothing but a relatively thin platform (held up by nothing) separating me from an endless darkness. By comparison, the second and third stages felt a lot safer since a floor of lave still felt like a "floor" of sorts, and the the third one implied that the stage took place in the "sky" so I felt like there was land down there, eventually. But that first stage is underground, and I thought I could almost feel the void "inviting" me to jump down, just to see. *shudder*

And that game has a massive amount of death animations just like Mario 64.

In KC Mario he also injured (and possibly killed one member) of this Monty Mole family with the metal form. Mario downright maliciously grinned when doing this to the Monty Mole family who was not even attacking him).

It's just that Mario 64 feels more of a dream than an actual thing that happened in the Mario lore. The levels are so dream core and out of place that It doesn't even make sense sometimes. For me It's just that when I was a kid playing 64 DS was kind off weird, because there is this endless pits and voids in some levels that you think "where does this go" or "Why there are 4 towers in the Sky" or "why there is a giant aquarium which It looks like in the middle of the Sky" or "why there is a house in the sky with no one inside" "why there are no actual rooms like the throne, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, sites, atleast there is the playroom from where Peach was a kid and the backyard which It isn't connected to the exterior at all". Idk, the Castle was so misterious that I was trying to find something that It wasn't there. Hazy Maze Cave was weird to me as a kid, like It was mostly Dark and I didn't even know where I was going, that giant thing on the lake just made me nope, I'm not going there, and just leave the course.

While a lot of the creepypasta and similar things are obviously fake, there's something to be said about people getting unsettled or get nightmares from early 3d games, simply because the world seems uncanny and mysterious.

Actually, Super Mario 3D Land was the first mainline 3D Mario game to feature a death animation resembling the 2D games, unless you were just counting the “open-world” games. Also, I think it’s pretty interesting how it took them until Odyssey to localize the eel’s name from “Unagi” to “Maw-Ray” (a pun on “moray”, I’m guessing), and how they also brought back the creepy, cloudy pupils they removed in Mario 64 DS. What contributed the most to the Secret Aquarium’s creep factor for me was the really blown-up wall, floor, and ceiling textures. Really added to the feeling of being in a huge, enclosed room you can’t stay in very long before drowning more than, say, the Eely-Mouth boss room from Sunshine. One thing that sorta bugs me (by which I mean “annoys me” and not “creeps me out) about the Endless Stairs, is that in the Mario 3D All-Stars release, either because of the increased resolution or because they accidentally made the room a little less foggy, you can kind of see the point where the game warps you back down the stairs to create the illusion the endlessness if you look closely at the top of the screen.

I also wouldn’t be surprised if some of the creepy stuff people have experienced in Mario 64 where actually 100% real. It was just that instead of the game being cursed or haunted it was just a faulty cartridge or dirty connection that could cause visual and audio bugs and glitches. I mean think about it. If you were a 5-7 year old kid in the 90s and your Mario 64 game suddenly started glitching and making strange sounds you would probably be pretty freaked out by it. And it wouldn’t be that hard to imagine this happening. We already know that Mario 64 can glitch in strange ways when the cartridge isn’t connected properly and some dust or corrosion could easily cause those types of problems. If someone experienced that type of glitch when they were younger but never experienced it again when they got older it’s not too hard to believe when people would say 20-30 years later that there game was cursed or haunted or some kind of secret version that should never have been released. Remember that the internet didn’t exist in the form it does today so it wasn’t really possible to just google the issue online to see what was really happening. Especially if you were a kid at the time you most likely had no or limited computer skills and access witch meant that you were unlikely to search for those types of things in the first place.

imo, it's largely the visual and audio design of the game that makes it scary. At the time, Nintendo designers were pioneering a new way to represent a fictional world in 3D space, so some decisions, such as making realistic death animations, could be seen as attention to detail and world-building. As if to make Mario feel like he really exists in this more "realistic" graphical setting than any of his games previously leading up to this point. The low-quality textures are taken straight from graphics packs and are actually just edited, color-shifted, stretched and cropped images of simple real-life objects like peanut butter or the side of a rock. This creates an incredibly bizarre atmosphere that seems made up of imagery that is largely left up to the player's imagination to fill in the details that aren't really there (which is why people usually feel as though the game looked much better as a kid than it does to us now today) However, with this room for imagination, can instead be a sense of uneasiness or mystery, as us kids had to use our imaginations, something that adults today don't really have the same ability to do. So, what we instead see is what the game really is, a primitive time-capsule of a different time period in video game development.

To be honest, it's the combination of the isolated environments and irregular models of the game that make me uneasy with this game

I’ve been thinking of getting SM64 on the Wii U Eshop. I already have it on the N64, but do y’all think I should get it or the DS remake?
@ThaneGaming2 жыл бұрын
I'd say since you already have it on N64, it might be a good idea to pick up the DS remake (I just bought it myself), if only because I think it's going to be a looong time before DS ports are going to be officially available again. There are lots of different screen configurations so it plays pretty well on Wii U! I will say though, if you've never played the DS version, be wary of the controls--it isn't true analog, so even if you use the control stick it's not seamless as there are only 8 directions to move around in. With that said, I did get used to it, so if you can too there's lots of new content to enjoy. The game is remixed in a cool way; I think it's definetely worth checking out!

Someone NEEDS to make a M64 hack, in which, Marios's death animations are overly gruesome (Like flesh melting when in lava, blood and organs splattered on ground when stomped, burnt flesh when electrocuted etc)

7:09 how do metal coins provide Mario with oxygen anyways? I get it as a game mechanic, but how would it work lore-wise?

I got a new microphone, and changed my recording setup quite a bit, so that's probably why it sounds different! Thank you 😁
