He may be a plumber by profession, but when it comes to video games, Mario is king. He's the most recognizable mustachioed face in all of gaming. He's evolved a lot over the years and continues to revolutionize game-playing with each new release.

Though the new games are fun, it's always great to go back and play the classics. People are still finding new things in these games all these years later. One of Mario's biggest and most popular adventures was his first foray into 3-D with 1996's Super Mario 64.

The title is considered a masterpiece of platform gaming and set the standard for 3-D titles. Since then, the Mario universe has grown by leaps, bounds and flipping somersaults. The roster of characters associated with his games have exploded.

Newer titles such as New Super Mario Bros. allows for the first time to simultaneously play Mario platforming games with your friends at the same time. It adds a whole new dimension of fun to these games. If only that option were available in some of the more classic games.

Well now, it is. Modder Kaze Emanuar launched Super Mario 64 Online. It's exactly what it sounds like. It's the classic Super Mario 64 game, but online.

The best aspect of this game? It's multiplayer. For the first time ever, you and your friends can play this classic title at the same time. But there's so much more.

Up to 24 players can play simultaneously. And you can be more than just Mario. You can choose between Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, Princess Peach, Rosalina, Yoshi and Toad.

Each player you select will give the game a different feel, as they all have their own special, unique abilities. For example, Yoshi has his signature jump from the Super Smash Bros. games, allowing him to reach higher places than any other character. Peach also has her famous floating ability, helping her navigate difficult terrain with ease.

Getting the game up and running is surprisingly simple and accessible. Any of your friends should be able to do it. If you have any troubles, the creator uploaded a tutorial.

Classic game. Tons of playable characters. Up to 24 players at a time. The possibilities are nearly endless for what you can do here.

Does it sound like this could quickly devolve into chaos? Of course, but that's part of the fun. If you need a little more structure in your game playing, here are some fun ideas.

You can play through the game simultaneously with friends. See who can beat it the fastest or collect the most stars. It adds a new depth to the fun and you may just discover things about Mario you've never known.

Bring a classic game into a classic game. Go into the mansion and play hide and seek. This alone would be enough fun for hours. But there are still yet more ideas.

Race your friends across different levels. Think of it as Mario Kart but without the karts. Wanna make it extra crazy? Everyone play as the same character and try to figure out who placed where.

Does this game seem fun to you? Well, you better play it as soon as you can. Nintendo is notorious for taking down fan-made games. The Super Mario 64 Online community is already massive, so it likely won't be up for much longer. Hurry up, grab some friends and make a Mario party out of it.
