Retrieve the Power Stars and confront the ruthless Bowser!

On a bright, sunny day in the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario goes to visit the princess but finds her castle eerily empty.

The game's vast worlds teem with daunting obstacle courses, hidden items, puzzles, and more than 30 types of enemies. Take advantage of Mario's large selection of moves, including running, jumping, swimming, stomping, punching, and even backward somersaulting! Special caps give him short-lived powers, including the ability to fly.

Super Mario 64 features revolutionary camera controls that make adventuring in its 3D world a snap, even for newcomers.

Clear levels by matching vitamins!

This vitamin-matching puzzle game was released for the Nintendo 64 console in 2001 and features Dr. Mario, armed with his trusty Megavitamins, treating patient after patient. Meanwhile, however, Wario and the mysterious Mad Scienstein are spying on Mario and hatching schemes to collect his magic cure-all. Of course, Wario just wants to get rich, but what's the story with Mad Scienstein? The intrigue doesn't end there! To get to the bottom of things, you'll face fast-and-furious action as all sorts of villainous types scramble to get their hands on Dr. Mario's Megavitamins. You'll need to defeat each opponent to progress, and to win, you'll need to clear your screen before your opponent clears theirs—or force them to retire by filling their screen with garbage. You can also test your mettle against computer-controlled characters, or up to three friends! Challenge them to match you vitamin-for-vitamin in Flash, Marathon, and Score Attack modes. Let those capsules fly!

Choose from 10 different modes of play and six 18-hole courses in a variety of environments for a golfing experience with endless replay value. Add fun, colorful graphics with a Mario touch, intuitive controls, incredibly deep gameplay, and multiplay support into the mixture, and you have a game that anyone will enjoy- even if they've never played a round of golf!
