Various power-ups can help Mario on his adventure. [[Koopa Shell]]s can be ridden on land, water, or [[lava]] to provide temporary invincibility, and by hitting [[Cap Switch]]es found in the secret courses, Mario can activate [[block]]s containing the [[Wing Cap]], [[Vanish Cap]], and [[Metal Cap]], whose powers are necessary to complete many of the missions. As the game is a showcase title for a new console and the first 3D ''Super Mario'' game, many aspects of the game showcase the [[Nintendo 64]]'s features. Multiple sections take advantage of the analog stick's precision requiring Mario to walk slowly over narrow passageways or tiptoe to sneak up on enemies. Some bridges and platforms sway under Mario's weight.

''Super Mario 64'' takes place within the walls of the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle ]] in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. It is the first ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' game to explicitly include the Mushroom Kingdom as a location since ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. The game's [[level]]s, called "courses," are not naturally occurring places but were created by [[Bowser]] using the [[Power Star]]s he stole from [[Princess Peach]]. Most of them are accessed through [[painting]]s that hang in the castle's walls, but some are more cryptically hidden or require the player to accomplish a task in the castle before becoming accessible. Some [[:File:SM64 globe artwork.png|paratextual material]] and [[Throwback Galaxy|subsequent titles]] present the courses introduced in this game as visitable places outside the paintings.

Generally, a course is a sprawling location with interactive environmental elements and several levels of elevation. Courses often have subareas and collectibles obscured in the landscape that passively encourage the player to rotate the camera and explore. Most courses feature prominent landmarks, such as the mountain on the [[Bob-omb Battlefield]] and the volcano in [[Lethal Lava Land]], that provide the player with a consistent point of reference that mitigates their chance of getting lost.<ref name=montreal>[[Yoshiaki Koizumi]].

*'''Main courses'''<ref name=booklet>''Super Mario 64 Instruction Booklet''.

Some of the dedicated missions build off each other environmentally or narratively. (This means the events that transpire in the completion of one mission are reflected in the events of the subsequent mission.) However, some Power Stars can be encountered before the mission-dedicated one and can be collected, resulting in some instances where the Stars are obtained out of the intended "order." These courses are the most intricate levels in the game. Most include objects that can enable quick traversal between areas, such as cannons and [[Warp|Warp Points]]. Some courses include accessible subareas, such as the volcano in Lethal Lava Land and the pyramid in Shifting Sand Land. There are 15 main courses in the game, and they are the only levels explicitly numbered and listed on the pause menu.

**'''Bowser courses'''<ref>Upchurch, p. 30</ref> lead to an arena where Mario must defeat [[Bowser]]. Each Bowser course features a Power Star obtained by collecting eight [[Red Coin]]s, but this does not complete the level. In the first two courses, defeating Bowser awards Mario a [[Key#Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS|Big Key]], a different kind of token that completes the level when touched. The Big Key is used to permanently unlock the [[Key Door]] to another floor in the castle. In [[Bowser in the Sky]], the final course, defeating Bowser releases the [[Jumbo Star]]. Collecting it does not contribute to the player's Power Star total, instead freeing Princess Peach. There are three Bowser courses in the whole game, one for each floor.

**"'''Switch courses'''" are where Mario is under the effect of a power-up immediately upon entering a course and is needed to reach a Cap Switch. When one is [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]ed, it causes the power-up to permanently become accessible within the main courses. They are analogous to the [[Switch Palace]]s in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', though unlike in them, striking the switch does not make Mario exit the course. These are the only courses in the game where Mario can fall down a [[pit]] without losing a life; he is instead brought back to the castle.

Using a well-timed [[Triple Jump]] on the slope near the castle, Mario can climb the castle without the [[cannon]]. Also, when he reaches a corner, he can fall down slightly and grab on to a ledge. Mario can then pull himself back up onto the roof, at which point he loses a life. For unknown reasons, he also loses his cap. This occurs because when Mario grabs the ledge, he is out of bounds, but the game waits until he pulls himself back up before causing him to lose a life. Something similar can happen if a door leads out of bounds or into a wall, but that can happen only through modding or glitches.

===Angled Dive===
===Angled dive===
When Mario enters the water, the angle he was facing before entering is preserved in a datum; therefore, when he jumps and lands on dry land, the next dive he performs starts with this angle. A few frames afterward, the angle fixes itself and the dive is completed correctly. Several things "reset" the angle, including grabbing a ledge, shooting from a cannon, changing areas, and jumping while facing a slope. This glitch does not affect the dive itself, just the animation.
