Rumors about a Super Mario 64<\/a><\/strong> remake are starting to circulate again as the game\u2019s 30th anniversary in North America gets closer on Sept. 26, 2026. Still, Nintendo hasn\u2019t announced a Super Mario 64 remake, remaster, event, or any other anniversary plan.<\/p>\n

The renewed speculation isn\u2019t hard to understand. Super Mario 64 helped define what a 3D platformer could be, with analog movement, open-ended levels, and a camera that was ambitious for its time. Add Nintendo\u2019s recent interest in Nintendo 64-era games like Star Fox 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and the idea of Super Mario 64 coming back doesn\u2019t feel far-fetched. Just not close.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

And most fans aren\u2019t talking about a basic visual touch-up. They want rebuilt graphics<\/strong>, tighter controls, a much better camera, improved audio, and maybe even some extra or restored content. That\u2019s even more true because 2004\u2019s Super Mario 64 DS left fans split over its control scheme and design changes, while 2020\u2019s Super Mario 3D All-Stars<\/a> was, in practice, just an enhanced port.<\/p>\n\n

If you\u2019re hoping Nintendo does it, this is the kind of thing to watch, but it still shouldn\u2019t be treated like actual news<\/strong>. Any real Super Mario 64 remake would need to clean up the game\u2019s dated parts without sanding off what made the original special in the first place. Fan mods and unofficial remakes have already made one thing pretty clear: people want this. Even if Nintendo usually shuts those projects down.<\/p>\n\n

For now, the only versions of Super Mario 64 you can get are the ones already available on Nintendo platforms. There isn\u2019t a new Super Mario 64 remake<\/strong> to download.<\/p>\n
