SM64 Slide
Nintendo 64Action2019
SM64 Slide is a fan-made action game built on Super Mario 64 by an unknown romhack creator and released in 2019. It centers on a slide-focused challenge that emphasizes momentum, route learning, and precise control rather than open-ended exploration. The hack keeps Mario’s familiar adventure tone while condensing the experience into a more demanding, skill-driven form. It drew attention in the romhack scene for its unusual slide course design and a star that is notoriously difficult to obtain.
How is this list kept current?
How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
