Here’s how to play Super Mario 64 on your web browser

It's me, Mario

This should bring back some memories.

Mario was one of our best friends growing up because we had no other friends we spent so much time with the guy.

The Italian plumber was at his best on N64 and Super Nintendo, but those consoles are gathering dust in the attic and are unlikely to see daylight ever again.

However, if you want some retro Mario action today, all you need is a web browser.

Yep, there’s a Super Mario 64 remake available online and here’s what it looks like.

To play the game on your web browser, you need to download a plugin called the Unity web player.

When we downloaded it, for research purposes, it didn’t work on Chrome but it did work on Firefox.

It’s lots of fun, have a go.
