>>36158956>>36158964>It's worth noting that as you said 2D and 3D plataforming is a lot different so the feature removed on 64 were mostly to accomodate the changeMario didn't need to be that different. The things in Super Mario 64 were experimenting with what 3D action games could do, not translating Mario's gameplay to a 3D plane which they could have. SM64 was more different to SMW than it needed to be because they weren't afraid to innovate.
In LGPE's its not as dramatic they've replaced one aspect of the gameplay(battling wild Pokemon) with a different type of gameplay(Go style Capturing) and adjusted the game in a similar way with wild Pokemon appearing on the map rather than random encounters. Saying it was removed is like saying they just removed dungeons with BOTW and not acknowledging that Shrines, Divine Beasts and a number of the overwold puzzles exist to take the place.
