does the original version still hold up?

Yes, very much so. I played it again on my VC, and it's still fun as fuck.

it absolutely does, it's got great movement and level design, and the DS version is good but would be a lot better without analog control

while sunshine is good, it suffers from levels that don't feel varied and are overly reliant on FLUDD (which removes challenge), plus blue coins exist

galaxy 1 and 2 are both really solid overall

So you're not asking if the game holds up but rather the N64 version as opposed to the DS version?

What kind of fucking question is that? Do you even need that answering?

A quarter of a century later and Mario 64 has bar none the best movement in any 3D platformer.

have we heard word back from E3 on how Mario controls in Odyssey?

is he weighted enough like in 64?

Astonishingly well compared to most other early 3D platformers of the time.

I'd say Banjo Kazooie is the only one to rival it.
