I'd agree that Sunshine has better controls (especially wall jumps and the beautiful secret levels) if it wasn't for the long jump. Oh lord the long jump was, is, and will remain control genius. I mean run, slightest tap on the z trigger, press A and wahooo. So smooth it brings tears to the eyes. Plus it invented the side flip and thankfully SMS retained it. That move just makes so much sense it's crazy.
Mario 64 had more wonder to it then any other game I've played. When I found the secret room from the first water level room and ended up in a tower filled with water I was just flabbergasted. Such an amazing idea. The secret level hidden in sun painting on the ceiling, meeting the penguin in the ice cottage. how you enter the ghost level, hanging on the owl, riding the loch ness monster, surfing on lava via turtle shell.
Mario 64 also has the best piece of midi composition in Dry Dry Docks.
