When I 1st bought the N64 it came with this game. I played it for about 1 hour and put it down. I also had bought GoldenEye. About a month down the road I said "oh I forgot about Mario 64". I played it and was hooked till I was done. I anted to finish it 100%. Which I did. Its a wonderful game with tons of land to explore. This game is a master piece. And itsfor all ages.
