Major props to Arlo for admitting that Mario 64 does not really hold up today, and that people mainly just love the game because of nostalgia. "Surprisingly hard to recommend to newer players" sounds about right.

Damn... this comment makes me afraid of looking at Jedi Academy ever again...

Just joking. Played it 1 year ago, still perfect in every way.

@LukeAlmighty Some nostalgia favorites really do hold up well even today. Hell, I've played some classics with zero nostalgia that still impressed the hell out of me, like Perfect Dark, Chrono Trigger and (this will probably shock some people) Final Fantasy VII.
