0:54 I heard the same sentiment in the manual of "102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue". "You are the cameraman!" it says, with extra keyboard buttons / console buttons to manually pan the camera with.
I believe the fixed camera mode is used mostly blindfolded speed runs. Actually pretty interesting what strategies they use, would highly recommend looking into it!
the mario 64 camera is damn impressive it is actually a work of genius considering the time and also it sucks so much i hate it it’s bad i’m not gonna meatride it it’s so terrible ughghhhhhhhh
i am NOT A DAMN BOOGIE FAN!!!!!! also, for the question you posed about games which give you a lot of control of the camera, the simpsons hit & run does :3 (although ig without cheats it's a little more limited......)
I would def think so, although it would be awkward at times? Pretty sure I’ve seen some speed runners try out that challenge and similar stuff like “beating the game with only mario cam”
that wouldn't be difficult to do in the slightest. the fact that you even ask just goes to show how absolutely overblown and memed to death this game's camera is.

The fixed camera mode is the only reason you can travel to parallel universes, since the game crashes if the camera travels to one.

"I'm not just the player but the cinematographer too" absolute cinema
PC port fixes the camera. Hope all the romhacks get ported over
telling my grandkids this was scott the woz
Very fun video for such a simple topic. Well put together. I'd love to see you tackle more UI or control quirks in games.
Alternate video title: It's you, not the controller!... sometimes

LOL fair enough
Wait wait wait wait
You can zoom out and still be in mario mode??? How?????
Hottake fixed camera is way more useful than mario camera.

Can you 100% the game without touching the camera at all

I don't think I ever really touched it as a kid
