The Characters

 * Yoshi - In Super Mario 64, Yoshi makes a very minor appearance. When Mario collects 120 Stars, he can unlock the cannon and meet Yoshi on the roof, who'll give Mario 100 lives, a sparkling triple-jump, and then jumps into the waterfall. and isn't seen again unless the game is restarted. Yoshi is the main character in Super Mario 64 DS. He can flutter-kick to reach high places, like Luigi and swallow enemies and items (turning them into eggs), but can't punch, kick, or grab objects, making him the only character with a projectile attack and is the weakest of the four characters. When he gets a Power Flower, he can breathe fire.
 * Mario - The character with the basic moves, like wall-jumping and flying, Mario is the very first character to be unlocked. Mario is the most balanced of the four characters and plays very much the same way that he did in the original game as well as in the previous games. When he gets a Power Flower, he turns into a balloon and can float really high, similar to Super Mario World.

 * Luigi - Mario's younger twin brother, Luigi, is the best character in the game. He has superb jumping skills and run on water for a short time. He is the fastest runner and swimmer. When he gets a Power Flower, he can turn invisible and walk through certain objects, similar to Mario wearing a Vanish Cap in the original game. Luigi is the second player to be unlocked. Luigi was planned to appear in the original game, but was taken out, unfortunately.
