Pros
Pro Free-roaming, open-world game
Super Mario 64, as a free-roaming, open-world game, was a precursor to later groundbreaking games such as Grand Theft Auto, and has been cited by Peter Molyneux as one of the 5 most groundbreaking games of the last 20 years for this reason
Pro Developed a proper camera and control scheme for 3D games
3D games prior to Mario 64 were somewhat all over the place with their control schemes, and game developers were still struggling to use the third dimension they now had access to. SM64 is a freeform game that makes the most of its 3rd dimension with fantastic control and camera orientation that we take for granted these days, but was highly innovative in its own time.
Pro Three new playable characters
A mage a monk and a half orc are the three new playable characters in the game which also have expanded stories over the original characters.
Pro Enhanced resolution support with new zoom ability
The enhanced edition now supports any resolution one may have on their PC as well as has a new addition of being able to zoom in and out, making it much easier to see what is going on in the game.
Cons
Con Stuck with the Infinity Engine
Old system driving the combat is dated and obtuse.
Horrible pathfinding.
Con New missions are buggy
Bugs do appear in the new missions which can easily be solved by reloading the game, but still is quite an annoyance to do so.
