Control thy enemies.

By Alex Gilyadov

A Super Mario 64 mod has added one of Super Mario Odyssey's biggest gameplay features to the Nintendo 64 classic.

Nintendo modder Kaze Emanuar has a found a way to include Odyssey's capture mechanic in Super Mario 64, allowing you to control several different enemies using Mario's hat, like Goombas, Shy Guys and Bob-ombs.

You can watch the mechanic in action here, where Emanuar successfully captures and controls floating platforms and blocks as well.

You can test the capture mechanic yourself when Super Mario Odyssey releases on October 27 for Nintendo Switch. For more on the 3D platformer, check out our glowing Super Mario Odyssey preview to find out why we think the game is a "brilliantly bizarre adventure."
