Still a great game 9 years later July 19, 2005 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I remember I was 6, and I had just gotten a Nintendo 64. At such a young age most of the games out were too complicated for me and I had to find something I could understand. Enter Mario Kart 64. This game is pure and simple, you pick a character and race with seven other famous Nintendo stars in 16 detailed (for N64, anyway) stages. This was one of the N64's first games, so for me it turned the system into a classic which I still play today. br / This game was much better than Super Mario Kart, and much better than Double Dash. In this game you can choose from 50cc - 150cc (which isn't much), and depending on your speed, this could be very boring, or the ride of your life. I mean seriously, who wouldn't want to speed down Yoshi Valley at 200 mph? For its time in '96, this game was amazing, and I still play it today. I am 15 now, so it has an enormous replay value. And the only stage I dont like is Banshee Boardwalk.br / If you have a Nintendo 64 (which not many people do), then buy this NOW!

This game is pretty darn easy. I beat most of the tracks with only a rental. It's not near as tough as the SNES version. Heck, the SNES version of Rainbow Road had no walls around the track and the track was thin to boot. Rainbow Road is a cakewalk on this one. Wide the whole way with walls all around. Too darn easy. However, there is a monster shortcut that's very dangerous to go for if you want to make things interesting.br /br /Even though it was too easy, I bought the game anyway. It's fun to beat the heck out of these computer controlled suckers. Plus I really like the game's ending.br /br /There is one hard level, the one with all of the traffic in the extra mode. It can be very frustrating if you make a mistake, because you get run over again and again and again. It usually takes away any hope of recovery.br /br /The most significant improvement over the SNES version is the time trial mode. You can race a ghost of yourself after you've already completed the course. The ghost is only a recording of your previous performance, but it gives you a lot more motivation to beat your old time, I assure you.br /br /I've never been into multiplayer modes, but if you're into that kind of thing, you'll REALLY love this game. Some multiplayer matches can go on for a LONG time, since the levels are so well-designed.

I bought this game on [...], and waited more than a week to get it. I popped it in the N64 and started playing it.br /The Graphics aren't bad. The game play isn't bad.br /The Music is okay I guess. So here is my rating for this game:br /on a scale from F to 3***br /br /Graphics 1*br /br /Game Play 2**br /br /Music B-br /br /Overall 1*br /br /I liked Mario Kart Super Circuit for Game Boy Advance better,br /so if you have a Game Boy Advance, buy Mario Kart Super Circuit. If you don't and have a N64, BUY THIS GAME.
Amazing May 31, 2005 This was the first 'Kart' game quite like this.. there isn't any 'Kart' game like this either outside of the Mario franchise. If you think you can find a better Karting game out there, I'd like to see you find it and show me, because from my finds and plays, this is the only game that is worth playing. From DK to Bowser, Peach to Toad, this game has most of the characters that have been involved with Mario in some way. The graphics are great for its time, the sound is fun, the worlds are colorful, the idea is great. Who wouldn't like this game- at ANY age? I'm not sure, but if you don't, you amy need to see a doctor. This is the best Kart game ever, and the best Mario Kart game ever.
