About this item
Product details
Mario's first foray into the world of 3D is regarded by many — most, even — as one of the greatest video games of all time, and with good reason. It ranks as the first really convincing realisation of a 3D world in a platform game and it introduced the concept of analogue control to a generation of console gamers, setting the template for hundreds of imitators that would follow, and the standard by which all 3D platformers would be judged forevermore.
For those who scandalously haven't got around playing this unimpeachable classic, the story will be familiar, at least. As usual Princess Peach has been kidnapped by the wicked Bowser and it's your job as Mario to rescue her.
The Princess's Castle forms the hub for this great adventure. Each different room contains a canvas which when jumped through will transport you to a rather unique world. Upon entering a world a challenge is presented which allows you to gain a star and exit the land — you can return several times to the same world to complete a new challenge in order to accumulate enough stars to open more elusive locked doors and progress through the castle. Eventually you'll confront Bowser face-to-face and, with any luck, say 'so long' before returning Peach home in time for tea and medals. And cake.
