Super Mario 64 DS is a game made exclusively for the Nintendo DS handheld platform, by Nintendo's Entertainment Analysis and Development division and published by the company itself for the portable console, on November 21, 2004, in North America, December 2, that same year, in Japan, on February 24, 2005, in Australia, and on March 11, 2005, in Europe, as a new and improved version of its cult classic Super Mario 64, which appeared originally on the Nintendo 64 home console.

The first game went on to gain critical and sales success, so this remastered title doesn't try to add too many new things, as the developer concentrated on improving the graphics, in order to take advantage of the more powerful DS hardware, and added new characters, like Yoshi or Wario, who can explore new areas.

HINTS

Mario's basic techniques
Note: This is with standard mode.

- Run: Press any direction then Y to accelerate. Hold Y to remain that way.
- Dash: Do not press any direction and hold Y. Mario will charge up and run in place. Then, hold any direction to dash off.
- 3 hit combo: Press A(3) while standing still to do two punches and a jump-kick.
- Run Dive: Start running then press A. Mario will do an instant dive, then slide on his stomach. While sliding it would be best to press B to hop quickly back on his feet.
- Run Jump Dive: Start running, then press B. Mario will jump with medium acceleration. Then, press A and Mario will dive in mid- air. Note: This works best for gaps that you can get the triple jump to work. Then as you slide on your stomach, press B.
- Double Jump: This requires timing. When standing still, press B to jump. Just as you land, jump again. You should go higher. Note: It will not work a third time.
- Triple Jump: You must be moving. Do the same thing as the Double Jump, but time it correctly one more time to do a super high jump.
