It's a boring collect-a-thon with little going for it. I mean, it took a genre that Super Mario 64 created, then did it so badly that it pretty much destroyed it. Sucks to be you. >_>
Did you just try to claim that Super Mario 64 invented the 3D platformer? Because I can name several examples of games using 3D, and at least a couple of bona-fide 3D free-roaming platformers. Defined it, yes, invented, no.
