Talk:Super Mario 64 DS

Shouldn't we merge this article with Super Mario 64? It's simply a remake w/ some newly created challenges, more characters and a slightly different storyline. The powers and levels are still the same, with improved graphics. Wayoshi 20:57, 3 July 2006 (EDT)


 * I'm not sure. There are enough chages to Super Mario 64 DS its own article. More playable characters, more levels, more stars, different power-ups, including the Power Flower. It's much more than a simple remake. However, the two pages should be linked together. --Son of Suns 02:03, 5 July 2006 (EDT)

Canon?
Is this really a canon game, or a Spinoff? I mean even Bowser's not stupid enough to try the same thing two times! (oh wait, he did in NSMB, sorry)

Also, the Japaense Super Mario Bros. 2 (Lost Levels for us) was nearly identical to his plan in the first. So yes, it's feasible that he'd repeat his original plan. ChrisAlassal 03:02, 4 March 2007 (EST)

Man, Bowser needs better ideas. I mean, if it failed once, it will again.

Remake
This isn't a remake. It has new characters, new levels, and a slightly different plot. True, Super Mario Advance 3 had extra levels, but remakes don't include new plots. That isn't saying since Super Mario Advance 3 has extra levels, it should be two different games. It's saying that there are too many differences between 64 and 64 DS.


 * They are two different games, but SM64 DS is still a remake of SM64. -- Son of Suns

But how?


 * Using the same title and the same base environs. -- Son of Suns

Since this is a remake, how come I keep seeing it referred to in this Wiki as either non-canonical or a separate incident from Super Mario 64? I must admit, I am confused... 13:54, 1 July 2007 (EDT)

Isn't this an FA
Isn't this an FA?


 * I don't know, but it sure looks like it should be.


 * WarioLoaf and I rewrote it; WL did the code and I wrote an entire walkthrough. It got nominated; didn't make it.

Mini-game instructions
Are the in-game instructions for the mini-games identical to those in New Super Mario Bros.? I only have the latter and would like to add the instructions to the articles. 15:17, 3 January 2008 (EST)
 * No one here who has both games and can compare the instructions? 07:32, 22 January 2008 (EST)
