One of the most memorable worlds in Super Mario Odyssey is the Sand Kingdom. It includes a small desert village, ruins and plenty of landmarks. If you've ever wondered what this level would like in Super Mario 64, take a look above and below.
A modder known as Kaze Emanuar has released a preview of the new generation Mario level recreated in the classic N64 title. The mod itself is known as Mario Odyssey 64. It's not just the bare basics, either. It allows players to use Cappy, travel on electrical lines and talk to the Sphinx. There are even moons to collect, locals to interact with and underground areas to explore.
As the video contains a rude thumbnail, here's a selection of screenshots instead. If you would like to see the clip, click here.
Emanuar previously created an N64 version of Cascade Kingdom and intends to release a full game featuring 240-300 moons.
Are you impressed? Does this make you want to revisit Odyssey or Super Mario 64? Tell us below.

Thumbnail caught me off guard
Holy crap that is phenomenal
Cappy looks pretty good in Mario 64. Really adds to Mario's movement arsenal.
The folks that do these sorts of things are so talented. I'd be interested to see what they could do pouring that much time into an original IP.
@BitLounger eh it would be more costly and time consuming going from scratch
...Yeah I can see Nintendo taking this down soon...
Uh. Not the kind of video thumbnail I would expect out in the open in this site.
Looks brilliant. The guy is talented and a legend in the 64 mod/hack level scenes
Legendary! That's so cool!
Amazing. The amount of talent to come up with these mods.
Holy crap that is amazing and so are his playing skills!
this is amazing!
That is incredible! What amazing abilities to pull that off!
@Morpheel Thanks for pointing this out. I have changed it now!
@BitLounger with the bigger projects Mario 64 it's the same one guy from big project to big project. He has really devoted his life to Mario 64.
Guess we didn't need more graphics after 1996 after all!
@Morpheel what was the original?
Wow, that looks great! I doubt it could fit on an original cartradge though.
@MysticGengar a certain hand gesture
See Nintendo? It works!
The game should have been on the N64 from the beginning!
Call me a crank or a hater, but I don't see the point. And of course when Nintendo lands like the 900 lb gorilla to destroy this, people will cry about "why won't Nintendo let us steal and mutilate their IP?!"
Pretty good stuff.
