Super Mario 64 is unquestionably one of the most beloved games ever made, and continues to be put on lists recording the greatest games of all time over 20 years after its debut.

The original New Super Mario Bros. released back in 2006 for the Nintendo DS, and now holds the title of ninth best-selling game of all time, with a total of 30,800,000 units sold since its release. With spruced up graphics and 80 brand new levels designed exclusively for the mod, there's more than enough to "jump" into if you're somehow finding yourself at a lack of Super Mario adventures to play. Check out the official trailer above.

In a new video, the brilliant YouTuber and modder Kaze Emanuar showcased a mod he created that demonstrates what the game looks like played in the first-person perspective. The returning power-up is none other than the Hammer Suit, which turns Mario into a hammer-throwing maniac with a fireproof shell when ducking.

Emanuar is known for serious, full-featured projects based on Super Mario 64, including the multiplayer game Super Mario 64 Online, the level editor Super Mario 64 Maker, and the ambitious expansion Super Mario 64: Last Impact.
