I remember trying to play this on a friend's ds as a kid. You're right the controls suck.

The thing that got me at the time is that I heard that you don’t play as Mario on your first playthrough, you play as Yoshi.
I'm biased, because I hate Yoshi (His design), but that seems like a bad decision.

I didn't really mind the controls back in the day. On the wrist strap for the DS there was a plastic pad you could place on your thumb and secure it there so your thumb would glide across the touch screen. Was a lot better than using the Dpad.
I really enjoyed the DS version back then and it was actually my first full playthrough of the game as I only got to play Mario at a friend's house since he had a 64.

I wish Nintendo re-released the game for the 3DS but like some others they choose not to acknowledge its existence.
He's an acquired taste for sure, but I like his videos.

Yeah right, you shouldn't like a person production because of generation/age difference, can we do a more stereotipical generalization?
Thanks.
Im pretty sure there is, I looked into it once.

Scott's an acquired taste, I do like his stuff, he has a second channel where he talks about stuff in his collection as well, it can be a fun thing to have on in the background
On to Super Mario 64 DS, the controls are fucking horrible, the game does look better than 64 and as he says, the point of the new characters is if you wanna play as them I guess? Limiting the powers Mario could get and piecing it out to the others was braindead though, its worth checking out but I'd rather just play 64 again

No hack needed if you play the ds game on a 3ds it lets you use the circle pad. Although it’s still not true analogue but still a bit better than the regular ds cintrols.

Not everyone can be ironic & cool like Game Sack Joe.
Suppose his YT analytics shows a majority of his viewers are kids, so he plays the role.

I know, but what I'm talking about is a hack allowing you to have true analog and 360° movements with the circle pad.

Yeah, there’s a mod from maybe a year-ish ago. It adds true analog support, widescreen, and right stick camera controls.
I still haven’t tried it myself because I’m lazy, but here’s a good overview of it. It’s definitely on my todo list.
