People's contrasting reactions to this are fascinating. Quicktimes and canned animations make setpieces like this a lot less abrasive but they feel cheaper, less dynamic, gimmicky, while the original is harder and frustrating a lot of the time but feels more natural and it's satisfying to figure out

I'm not sure if a modern Mario 64 remake would do this, but like if Nintendo acted like a normal company during the 7th gen and did one, they'd give you a little spin your joystick indicator and then make you press a button in a short window, where you succeed regardless of where the animation is.

I like those..

i'm curious - if you fail at just the right time is it still possible that mario will throw bowser at a bomb correctly?

For those curious, I threw this together because vanilla bowser throws are like actual torture. Genuinely will be playing with this more and will probs make a formal release of it!

If you like what you see, consider throwing me a machine part on Ko-Fi :3 ko-fi.com/squishy6094

What if SM64 was Sonic Unleashed

i am not shitting you that was a big part of the concept from the outset

id say you were throwing after the second hit, but, well,

The game is a flop. The Mario franchise dies in 1996 after its first 3d outing. Nintendo fades into obscurity and somehow Mort the Chicken becomes the king of video game mascots.

And Nintendo 64 would've been their last console ever. Lol

I know this is a joke but as much as this would ruin the moment a bit this genuinely would be an improvement over how bowser throws work in vanilla

I think I'd prefer this... does it aim for a bomb or do you have to time the last button press?
