Super Mario 64 was the first 3D game in the {{c|Mario|Mario series}}, and though it was not the first-ever 3D platformer, it helped to define the genre, much as [[Super Mario Bros.]] defined the 2D side-scrolling platformer. Super Mario 64 was considered so revolutionary that many consider it to have set the standard for all later 3D platformer games and 3D games in general.

In going from two to three dimensions, Super Mario 64 replaced the linear obstacle courses of traditional platform games with vast worlds in which the player must complete multiple and diverse missions, with an emphasis on exploration. While doing so, it managed to preserve the feel of earlier Mario games, including many of their gameplay elements and characters. It is acclaimed by critics as one of the greatest video games of all time.
