Mario 64 is arguably the most influential game in history.

It was the very first game to use a free roaming camera.


On May 5, 2011, Super Mario 64 was selected as one of the 80 games that will be displayed at the Smithsonian American Art Museum as part of "The Art of Video Games" exhibit that opened on March 16, 2012.[69][70]

In an interview with The New York Times, Rockstar Games head writer and VP of creativity Dan Houser, when asked about influence from other games stated, "Anyone who makes 3D games who says they've not borrowed something from Mario or [The Legend of Zelda] [on the Nintendo 64] is lying."

I DARE YOU TO FIND A BEST GAMES OF ALL TIME LIST THAT DOESNT HAVE MARIO 64 IN ITS TOP 10

So is anyone going to come in here and rationally explain why Mario 64 wasn't an overrated game with clunky controls/boring star quest/bad camera angles or are we just going to goose steep like sheeps?

Key word there. What other games borrow concepts from Mario 64 other then generic first 3D platformer? All modern FPS are influenced by Halo. All open word sandbox shooters are influenced by GTA. Can't say the same for Mario 64
Platforms aren't that popular anymore. Outside Mario the genre is mostly extinct.
