Super Mario 64

I know many people consider this one of the greatest games of all time, but, um, have y’all played this game recently? Mario often chooses to “affect fluid motion” over “doing exactly what you want him to do”, which often manifests as Mario choosing to make a wide turn while accelerating, which can lead to lives lost if he’s trying this near a ledge. Also, collecting the first twenty, maybe thirty, stars is fun, but getting all the way up to seventy (the minimum you need to complete the game) turns into pulling teeth. Still fun, for all of that.
