As ''Super Mario 64'' was [[Nintendo]]'s first title for the [[Nintendo 64]], an interactive Mario face served to familiarize the player to the [[Nintendo 64#Controller|Nintendo 64 Controller]] without worrying about actual gameplay. Additionally, on the [[Game Over]] screen, Mario's head will appear dazed and worn out. | ||
In the remake ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Mario | In the remake ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the Mario head appears along with a [[Yoshi]] head. In this game, Mario's face is able to turn into an ink outline version of itself, which can be distorted with the [[Nintendo DS#Stylus|stylus]] or various buttons. The player can also erase the face and draw their own creations. | ||
Mario's face is also a feature in some of the [[minigame]]s in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. When the player opens a [[treasure chest]] in [[Boom Box (minigame)|Boom Box]], the chest makes a sound, astonishing Mario's face on the top screen. If the player makes a mistake, Mario's face frowns, while if the player succeeds, Mario's face beams joyously at the player. | Mario's face is also a feature in some of the [[minigame]]s in ''Super Mario 64 DS''.

If the player gets a Game Over in any minigame, Mario's face yells and looks dazed. When the player clears any minigame round or beats a high score, Mario's face is astonished, then bursts out laughing. In [[Tox Box Shuffle]], if the player finds Yoshi in the right [[Tox Box]], the Mario head bursts into laughter like how the player succeeds in Boom Box; if the player loses twice in a round, the Mario head yells. | ||

In the sequel, a [[Rosalina]] head can be unlocked as a file icon when the player collects 120 [[Power Star|Star]]s and unlocks the [[Green Star]] [[Prankster Comet]]s.

Mario's face later appears in the ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' version of [[Face-Lift (minigame)|Face Lift]] (also in ''[[Mario Party]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'' but with Bowser's face and no other faces), where the player has to alter the face of Mario or other characters in the game. The more accurately the face is changed to match a picture, the more [[point]]s the player receives. The player who earns the most points wins, although two players can win if they earn the same number of points. Mario's head, along with a Luigi head, Peach head, Yoshi head, Wario head, and Donkey Kong head, appears in the 1-vs-3 minigame [[Look Away]], where each head has to dance along to the music, and the team of three heads must avoid looking in the same direction as the single player head. | Mario's face later appears in the ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' version of [[Face-Lift (minigame)|Face Lift]] (also in ''[[Mario Party]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'' but with [[Bowser]]'s face and no other faces), where the player has to alter the face of Mario or other characters in the game.

Soon, in the next game, ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', Mario's face is one of the faces (alongside [[Wiggler]] and [[Toad]]) to appear in the minigame [[Picture Imperfect]]. The player must get his ''M'' on his hat right, nose right, mustache right, mouth right, and eyes right. | ||
