OB1, how is it false that in Mario 64 themes repeat a lot? The only semi-repeating themes are the snow levels and the underwater levels. There are no "outdoor generic" levels. All the outdoor levels you are talking about are very unique. The first two levels are the same? Have you really played Mario 64 in the last five years? Bob-Omb Battlefield and Whomp's Fortress are dramatically different in theme and design! Same for every one of the outdoor levels! As opposed to SMS where most of the levels are oh so similar... a few are unique, like the one in the docks, but so many others look like they could be in the same level if not for that they aren't... while the SM64 levels are pretty much all unique. Sure, every SMS level has unique things. But not even as many as the difference between the water or snow levels in SM64, for most cases...
Now, SMS is still very good, but the level variety was very lacking. In both theme and design.
As for the moves... some of the new ones are good. I love the hover... that is easily the best new move. Hover is very cool. But the rest? I don't use them much at all... and it was very dissapointing to see some of SM64's best moves, like the flying and the long jump, gone.
