Descending down the Mario 64 Iceberg: A Deep Dive Analysis

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 เม.ย. 2024
  • Super Mario 64 is a game made by Nintendo that came out on the Nintendo 64. This was the first videogame I ever played and I have so many great memories playing it by myself or with an audience. Recently, an image of an iceberg with layers depicting the depth of Mario 64 theories and knowledge has made its rounds on the Internet. It’s actually pretty surprising at just how deep this all goes.

      Someone on another video commented that he remembers as a kid that playing on his own copy "was fine" but "whenever [he] played a friend's copy, something just never felt quite right."
      In psychology, this is called "priming" and can be used to even make people change their own memories with enough persuasion. Like convincing someone they say Bugs Bunny at Disney World as a kid, even through Bugs has never been a mascot for Disney and even if the person had never been to Disney World to begin with.

    36:57 it’s more of a depressive energy.... it’s all mostly brown, and grey colors. You’re surrounded by 4 walls. The skybox looks like a city underwater, ignoring that, it’s a city filtered to look blue, and is also very dull and dark in color.
    I imagine it wouldnt be so depressive if the skybox wasn’t edited, or was edited to look like a bright blue sky, and a yellow sun, Instead of being underwater. As well as not being surrounded by 4 walls, and maybe livening the scenery up.... it’s as depressive as a factory. Maybe more flora, or colors in general.

      What's kind of funny to me though, is that not only did Charles Martinet just randomly record laughs for some sound effects company, but he also plays as the main character in a game where they use it to voice the villain, making him technically the credited voice actor for him!

    It seems the paintings lead to other parts of the universe. This is shown in Super Mario Galaxy 2 where Whomp’s Fortress reappears as Throwback Galaxy. We know for a fact this is the same location as wall you had to blast away has already been broken, and one of the Bob-Omb Buddies says they recognize Mario.

    A couple things about your test in Wet Dry World.. First, it doesn't look like your testers visited the abandoned town area, which I find to be the eeriest thing about the level by far. If you ever do anything similar, they should definitely visit this part of the level!
    Second, I think it's all about context. Sitting with a friend and joking as you play is going to set a certain vibe that inhibits the uneasiness of the stage. Your testers also seemed like they were kinda trying to get a feel for the game again as well, which probably distracts from the actual level. If you're up late at night and playing alone, however, and you've been at it for a while, I think finding yourself in this level hits in a totally different way. The fact that there's nothing inherently creepy about it really makes the strange vibe of the stage.. well, that much stranger. Being spooked in the ghost house is one thing, but this stage doesn't seem to have been planned to be creepy. There's definitely something about it..
    Anyway, just my two cents. I enjoyed the video, keep it up!

    I have a few theories as to why Wet-Dry World seems to give off such an eerie vibe:
    1: I think this may have been one of the earlier levels in development. Compared to the other levels, which have a coherent theme to them, this one feels more like a souped-up beta/test level, consisting of lots of simple shapes and platforms with functional, highly visible textures. I remember reading somewhere that the first year of SM64's development consisted of just Mario in an empty room, jumping around to ensure that his movement controls worked as they should have. And Wet-Dry World is a level that really tests your ability to use all of Mario's jumping and moving abilities. I wouldn't be surprised if this was originally a playtesting arena, where playtesters were instructed to make Mario run, jump, climb, and swim to ensure everything worked right.
    2: Claustrophobia and hostile architecture. Wet-Dry World is one of the few levels that takes places entirely "indoors", being walled off on all sides, and compared to the others, it's very small and cramped. The architecture is all brick and metal with few convenient ways of getting around, making the whole place feel very artificial, hostile, and unwelcoming. The "skybox" appears dark despite the sun and give the appearance of being viewed from underwater, and once you unlock the way to get to the lower level, not only are you completely cut off from the sky, you're also trapped with no way to get back to where you were without exiting the level completely.
    3: It's a really hard level and as a kid it really sucked to play

    Clarification on the wiggler body thing
    Someone tried editing the actual graphics for the wiggler’s body and it didn’t correlate with the orbs in the arena, so the two objects are using two separate graphic files

    • @Sunflower41XD

    • @TheKnewGreg
      @TheKnewGreg 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Sunflower Honestly, I feel like the fact they’re different graphics could still support that theory. If they were the exact same graphic it’d be easy to assume that it was done solely to conserve memory by reusing stuff, but the fact that they deliberately made a new sprite that looks almost identical to the wiggler body makes it feel a bit more intentional

  • @chaincat33
    @chaincat33 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The way parallel universes work is the fact that collision is checked on an finite value bounded by the size of the map, which is several orders of magnitude larger than the actual level. Mario's position meanwhile is on an infinite scale with no upper bound. You aren't intended to get to the edge of the map, so if Mario's position exceeds collision detection, the value overflows and loops around to the negatives. Eventually you reach where collision should exist in a positional value way outside the map, and collision still exists there.

  • @ag2023en

    There's actually a layer of truth to the myth that SM64 is personalized. You see, some games have functions to dynamically adjust their difficulty to tailor to the player's skill *or lack thereof*. Games like Crash Bandicoot and Resident Evil 4 employ this to some extent. So the way I see it, it wouldn't be anything crazy for SM64 to employ some difficulty adjustment as well.

    The "impossible goomba" explanation is as follows: that goomba, as well as the two that are actually on the platform, are spawned in via a single object called a "goomba triplet" which spawns three goombas in a triangle. The problem is that one of the points on that particular triangle wound up being placed slightly over the edge of the platform.

    My theory for the Delicious Cake is that she wrote the letter before making the cake, so that by the time the letter was delivered, read by Mario, and his arrival, she would've had the cake ready and t would still be fresh.

I was pleasantly surprised you didn't do something similar at the end of this video(In fact, you parodying the Wario Apparition videos when you visited the DDD/BitFS room got a good chuckle out of me). These iceberg videos are rather goddamn interesting to watch, well done.
