About this game

Super Mario 64 is a single-player 3D platform game in which players guide Mario through Princess Peach’s castle and its magical worlds in an attempt to rescue her from Bowser.

When Mario arrives at the castle after receiving Peach’s invitation, he finds her missing, the castle overtaken by Bowser, and the Toads trapped by his spell.

To break Bowser’s control and free Peach, Mario must explore the castle’s many paintings, which act as portals to different worlds, and collect Power Stars hidden within them.

Unlike earlier side-scrolling Mario games, this installment is set in fully three-dimensional environments.

Each course is built around objectives tied to Power Stars, such as defeating bosses, completing timed challenges, or solving environmental puzzles.

Levels can be revisited multiple times, often with new areas opening once Mario gains new abilities or items.

Progression through the castle requires collecting enough Stars to unlock doors and access new wings of the castle, with three major encounters against Bowser determining Mario’s advancement to the final showdown.

Mario’s movement set is greatly expanded compared to earlier games.

In addition to running and standard jumping, he can crouch, crawl, climb, and punch or kick enemies.

Advanced maneuvers such as double jumps, triple jumps, long jumps, wall kicks, and backflips are essential to reach hidden areas or complete challenges.

Swimming requires careful management of Mario’s air supply, and some levels feature puzzles that involve carrying items or interacting with switches to advance.

Several power-ups appear in special hidden blocks throughout the game.

The Wing Cap allows Mario to soar through the air when launched from a cannon, the Metal Cap makes him invulnerable and able to walk underwater, and the Vanish Cap lets him phase through certain barriers.

These power-ups are temporary but often required to access Stars in specific courses.

Later versions of the game introduced new features.

About Nintendo Wii U

The Wii U (2012) was commercially Nintendo's least successful home console, hampered by market confusion over whether the GamePad tablet controller was a new device or a Wii accessory. Its low sales mean smaller overall print runs across the board, and several first-party and indie darlings have already become noticeably pricier than their commercial performance would suggest, since there are simply fewer copies in circulation.

Gamevaro tracks Super Mario 64 for Nintendo Wii U with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Super Mario 64 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WIU release dates back to 2015.

Rarity & condition

No market sales have been tracked yet for Super Mario 64 — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.

Condition matters a lot for collector value: loose (cartridge/disc only), complete-in-box (CIB, with original packaging and manual) and factory-sealed copies are tracked separately because the price gap between them can be significant, especially for older releases.
