It is very very hard to choose because those is both first Mario platformer that I got. N64 have more better controls and graphics while DS have minigames, more levels and 4 character. I think I had to choose N64 verison since controls for N64 is easy than Wii VC or emulators with horrible arrow keys controls. Also DS tend to make character go slower running than N64's faster running.

Also I will be getting this again next week because my game got stolen and this game will be shipped and arrive next week and I still have this game's box and manual.
 
I prefer Super Mario 64 DS

Mainly because Luigi is playable and he is my favorite out of the bunch in that game. Also, I'm more used to the DS version than the 64 version and therefore more comfortable with its controls.
 
I also prefer the DS version since Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario are playable. Finally, a mainstream Mario game where Yoshi appears without giving Mario a piggyback ride.

No way, the DS graphic are MILES better than the N64, even though I like the goofy polygonal N64 graphics.

Agreed. They're both great. if you want some Nostalgia, play SM64. If you're on the go, play the DS version.
 
They're both good games, but I prefer the N64 version because it's just easier to control in my opinion. I usually prefer originals over remakes anyway.
 
How come I'm the odd one out? I felt Super Mario 64 DS controlled just fine while I felt Super Mario 64 was the one with the odd controls.

I also think that SM64DS controlled well (which is somewhat ironic).
 
Well I'm glad I'm not the only one who was fine with the way Super Mario 64 DS controlled.
 
I liked the control too. I also liked the extra bosses and how you had to use powerups for some special stuff. Also, you can play as Yoshi without piggyback rides!
 
Definetly prefer the original. More often than everything new about DS just got in the way for me.
