Shigeru Miyamoto 's guiding design philosophy behind Super Mario 64 was to `` include more details '' than found in games prior to the Nintendo 64 .


Miyamoto developed most of the concepts during the era of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System ( SNES ) and considered using the Super FX chip to make it an SNES game , but decided to develop it for the Nintendo 64 not due to the former system 's technical limitations , but because the N64 controller had more buttons for use .

Conventions regarding the definition of an algebraic variety differ : Some authors require that an `` algebraic variety '' is , by definition , irreducible ( which means that it is not the union of two smaller sets that are closed in the Zariski topology ) , while others do not .


Modern definitions of an algebraic variety generalize this notion in several different ways , while attempting to preserve the geometric intuition behind the original definition .

A 2005 study by Sankar Chatterjee suggested that the wings of Microraptor functioned like a split-level `` biplane '' , and that it likely employed a phugoid style of gliding , in which it would launch from a perch and swoop downward in a ` U ' shaped curve , then lift again to land on another tree , with the tail and hind wings helping to control its position and speed .

This evidence , combined with the small size of other primitive relatives such as Microraptor and the troodontid Anchiornis , indicates that the common ancestor of dromaeosaurids , troodontids , and birds ( which is called the ancestral paravian ) may have been very small , at around 65 cm in length and 600 to 700 grams of mass .

However , whereas most theropods walked with three toes contacting the ground , fossilized footprint tracks confirm that many early paravian groups , including the dromaeosaurids , held the second toe off the ground in a hyperextended position , with only the third and fourth toes bearing the weight of the animal .
