'''''Super Mario 64''''' (スーパーマリオ64, Sūpā Mario Rokujūyon) is one of the first three dimensional (3D) platform games. ''Super Mario 64'' features free-roaming analog degrees of freedom, large open-ended areas, and true 3D polygons as opposed to two-dimensional (2D) sprites. It established a new archetype for the genre, much as Super Mario Bros. did for 2D sidescrolling platformers. Hailed as "revolutionary", the game left a lasting impression on 3D game design, particularly notable for its use of a dynamic camera system and the implementation of its analog control. | '''''Super Mario 64''''' ('''''スーパーマリオ64''''', '''''Sūpā Mario Rokujūyon''''') is one of the first three dimensional (3D) platform games.

In going from two to three dimensions, ''Super Mario 64'' placed an emphasis on exploration within vast worlds that require the player to complete multiple diverse missions, replacing the linear obstacle courses of traditional platform games. While doing so, it managed to preserve many gameplay elements and characters of earlier Mario games. The title is acclaimed by many critics and fans as one of the greatest and most revolutionary video games of all time. | In going from two to three dimensions, ''Super Mario 64'' placed an emphasis on exploration within vast worlds that require the player to complete multiple diverse missions, replacing the linear obstacle courses of traditional platform games.
