Make sure you do both of those with time stopped

This is sick:

So I just beat 64 and Bowser and now it’s stuck on “The End” screen?

How do I go past this without messing up my save file?

It auto-saves just restart the game lol

Okay I did it

Got the secret ending

I had to google this as well, it's a really game design. Especially considering I play Sunshine way more than 64 and in Sunshine the star from Bowser actually counts to your star total but it doesn't in 64

I’ve now officially 100%’d Super Mario 64 for the very first time :’)

According to the Parental Controls app, it took me about 31 hours and 45 minutes to 100% it

Not sure when I’ll start Sunshine, maybe next week

I got 92 shines and all I have left is the blue coin shines. I might skip that and come back to it after galaxy.

Taking a break for a while til I start Galaxy. Gonna be playing DKC 2 for the time being

If you only have 92 shines left then you have more than just blue coins left.

IIRC blue coins get you 24 stars which means you would still have 4 stars remaining.

Yikes lmao I wonder which ones I’m missing. I know I need the 100 coin shine in the main village. I need a break though lol

The controls are really bad for this collection.

facts

First time playing.
The games are great but the controls really take away from the overall enjoyment.

got 120/120 stars in all 3 games and didn’t have a single problem with the controls at any point

You probably just suck

Nah

Don’t take a cheap shot on his skill

64s controls are bad and way worse than the original.

Sunshine controls are worse than the original.

Pretty much any major 64/Sunshine player will tell you this.

Obviously the games are still beatable but the controls are one of the few bad things about this game.

You didn’t go for the 240 stars of Galaxy?

Starting Galaxy today

These controls for Galaxy are awful

I forgot about the bees in Galaxy

This game is scary

galaxy is fine in the superior switch mode

Touchscreen almost worse than motion controls

Galaxy has been super easy, in fact I’m already really far but these boss battles are way too chaotic and probably the hardest Mario boss battles ever in a Mario game.

Meanwhile Galaxy probably has the easiest normal levels in any 3D Mario game, this has been a breeze

In Mario 64 and Sunshine when you lose a boss fight you just spawn right outside of it and can Try it again.

Why does Galaxy make me get back to the boss

For me it depends, collecting star bits and doing most things are definitely better with the pro controller but i prefer touch screen for pull stars and whatever this is called
