The original Super Mario 64 was only 8 megabytes, so it’s not at all surprising that this is possible.
The site will show you a guide of the controls before the game starts up. It’s a tad confusing - the A button is X, the B button is C, and so on. Keep in mind that while playing with a keyboard on a Mac or PC, the old Nintendo 64 buttons have been remapped to different keys. Presumably, your saved games will be deleted if you clear your browser’s cache, though.
I’ve been testing the site with an Xbox Series S controller, and there’s no input lag whatsoever.Īccording to the website, you can save your game progress as well. As you may know, you can pair a Playstation, Xbox, or MFi controller to your Apple devices for gaming. To play the game on your iPad or iPhone, you’ll need to pair a game controller. If you want to try out this fan-favorite Mario adventure on your Apple device, you can do so here. It’s unclear how long Nintendo will allow this site to stay up, but it was first reported on in April, so it’s been around for several months now. The game plays tremendously well in Safari on iPad, iPhone, and on the Mac. The website stems from a GitHub project called the “Super Mario 64 decomp project.” Previously spotted by Nintendo Life, you can now play the iconic Super Mario 64 inside a web browser on almost any device, including your Apple products.
