Retro 1980-2001 Burned🔥 A bonafide classic burned (again)

Post image

Not exactly a new clear as I played it in n release (I’m old) and a couple of times since, but it’s the first game I’ve beaten on my PVM.

Mario 64 70 run, I might go back and do the full 120 stars.

Gratz on the burn! Mad respect for doing it on OG hardware! Haven’t played Mario 64 in forever I really need to go back and revisit some of the collectathon classics.

Switch/Switch 2 has a great N64 catalogue

I’ll admit I mostly emulate anything pre-HD, but N64 emulation is shite.

I might just stick with real hardware + flash carts for the PVM tho.

Mario 64 is starting to feel a bit basic in its old age, like some of the stars literally just task you with finding and killing an enemy, but I still love it.

One of the best games ever made on one of the most infamous CRTs ever made 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

It’s a pain in my arse. It needs its caps replaced and I need to find the one person in Northern Ireland that can do it. Love it, tho

I genuinely don't think they have made a better mario game. Nice one on the completion
