If you want to support or oppose, go here.

Template:Infobox Super Mario 64 DS for the Nintendo DS is a remake of Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64. In it you can play as Yoshi, Mario, Luigi, and Wario, compared to the Nintendo 64's version, which only allows you to play as Mario.


Story

Peach writes a letter to Mario, which is apparently seen by both Wario and Luigi, who come in Warp Pipes along with Mario to Peach's Castle to get some cake. The two brothers were surprised to see Wario there and the three brave plumbers scuffled in the fields in front of the castle. The three stopped an raced into the castle, to be ambushed and taken prisoner by Bowser and his fellow cronies.

Yoshi was asleep the entire time, only to be awaken by Lakitu , who realized the green, yellow, and red plumbers haven't returned to the pipes to leave and instructed Yoshi to get them.

Gameplay

As in Super Mario 64, the courses are accessed by the different paintings on the castle's walls, but in the DS game, the player can collect 150 power stars, 30 more than the original game.

Character Selection

Yoshi in the room with selectable characters.
Picking a character.

To switch between there are three doors each symbolizing the character's first letter of their name. To Use them, go through the door and out will pop the character who's door he compliments. Switching to Yoshi will mean reentering the door that complements your character once more.

Flat Caps

File:FlatHats.png
The essential headgear.

When entering a world, hats are visible on your screen. When put on, the character will turn into the corresponding character who owns the flat hat. They are found on Goombas most of the time or randomly place in water or on land.

When hit by an enemy, the cap topples off and the character and will need to retrieve it in limited time.

When Yoshi, a player can select the cap when selecting a star, right after jumping into a painting. If a cap is selected, Yoshi will put it on after entering the course.

  • Mario's Hat - a Red cap that allows you to turn into Mario
  • Luigi's Hat - a Green cap that allows you to turn into Luigi
  • Wario's Hat - a Yellow cap that allows you to turn into Wario

Character Unlocking

To have more of a chance beating the game, you need to unlock the three plumbers trapped by Bowser:

  • Mario - use Yoshi, from the starting point in the castle, go up the stairs and to the right. Go straight to the next door, go through the 8 star door and hop into the Mario painting. Fight Goomba King for the M key by jumping into a spot marked "X" on the map.
  • Luigi - Go to the top floor of Boo's mansion with Mario. THis level is very tricky, as some doors lead nowhere. Watch that footing!
  • Wario - Once the large door right at the head of the stairs is unlocked, go inside, then get past another door leading to Snowman's Land. There's two Power Flowers, so use Luigi to go transparent into the mirror by the Snowman's Land wall, fight Chief Chilly for the W key.

Power Flower Power!

Each of the four characters has a special power from the power Flower in the ? box. Only Mario can get something other than a powerflower from the ? box and that would be a feather to help him fly. These forms last for a VERY short time.

  • Mario: Floating Power
The ability to float in a puffed out formation of the stomach to reach high places.
  • Luigi: Transparency
The ability to become transparent and go through solid matter
  • Wario: Metal
The ability to become metal and be invincible.
  • Yoshi: Breath Fire
The ability to melt ice and such with fire blasts.

Rabbits

Each character has a certain amount of rabbits to catch (they are color coded) , plus the sparkled white ones. The Rabbits will give up keys to drawers in the room behind the W , L , and M doors that open mini games.
