Mario Kart 64 (Nintendo 64)

Top Reviews
  One of the best multiplayer games ever.

This is one of the best multi-player games of all time. Mario Kart 64, like its predecessor for the super nintendo, features a race and a battle mode. There are 16 race courses and 4 battles courses. My friends are divided as to whether race or battle mode is better. I know some people who prefer the cute graphics and handicapping that allows players of different levels to compete on race mode, and people who love the cut-throat hair-on-edge feeling of a good battle. In any case, the game works as before, where the screen divides into 4 quadrants and each player controls his player in his quadrant. The usual cast of characters is
here again, Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Toadstool, etc.

I think the handicapping is a little too prounounced in race mode. That is to say, if you get really far ahead of the pack, the powerup's you start receiving are terrible, like green turtle shells or banana peels. I know I know, the banana peel can be a lethal weapon, but only because if some does fall for a banana peel, the sheer hilarity of watching that guy sputter out of control and start cursing the living daylights is worth it. But here's the thing. If you are way in last place, you'll find yourself getting infinite mushroom after infinite mushroom, and pretty soon you're neck and neck with the first place guy. What this means is the way you drive for the first 3 laps doesn't really matter. So I feel like it disincents people from taking the race seriously the whole way through, and what ends up determining the winner is who is in 3rd place on the final lap and in a position to get the next infinite mushroom. On the flip side, is you can play with anyone, expert of beginner, and keep it interesting. That
can be nice if you have friends with lives who don't spend every hour trying to nail the shortcut in koopa beach, but want to be able to enjoy the wonders of rainbow road.

Battle mode is arguably how this francise made its name, and in 64, Nintendo ups the ante with multidimensional battle courses that span the highly claustrophobic (sky tower) to the cavernous (doughnut) to the labyrinth (the green level) to the all out jungle warfare (blockfort). The great thing about these levels is they offer something for everyone. If you are looking for a quick game before heading off to dinner, you can choose doughnut or the sky tower. If you are looking for all out combat, and don't mind a 30 minute
dogfight, you have blockfort and the green level to choose from. Each of these levels is so physically different that it affords so many different strategies for beating your opponents. I mentioned how funny it is when one of your friends slips on a banana peel in race mode. Well in battle mode, it is a hundred times funnier, since that means they lose a balloon and are much closer to defeat.

There is so much memorable stuff from this game, from racing backwards on the highway against traffic to morphing into a bomb once you are defeated in battle mode. From the golden age of the 64, this is a must have for any one who loves a good multiplayer game.

Mario Kart 64: also known as the ultimate game for any party. There are 8 different characters you can choose to play -- all of which are popular Nintendo mascots. Different players have different properties depending on who they are. For example, Bowser has slow acceleration, but can bump around people easily due to his massive size. There are 20 different courses -- 16 different racing courses and 4 different battle courses. In race mode, your must complete 3 laps in that course the fastest in order to win. However, in Battle mode, you must fight against the other players in order to win. Items can be obtained during a race that can be used to your advantage. For example, Turtle Shells can be used to throw at enemies, while Mushrooms can be used for a temporary speed boost. It's an extremely fun racing game with lots of comic mischief, making it one of the most fun games on the N64, and a MUST for any party.

  Great fun. A worthy followup to the original!

Mario Kart 64 is easily one of the most fun games released for its platform. The graphics are greatly improved from the original SNES game. Some excellent new drivers are playable (the best of all being Wario, easily the funniest character in the game). There are some new innovations as far as items and gameplay modes go, showing that this isn't merely a repackaging of the first edition.

If you're looking for a fun game that can be played by anybody, you've found it in Mario Kart 64.

Seller was a really nice guy. I would buy from him again!

Just kidding... i know this isnt feedback. OK down to business, MARIO KART 64!
C'mon- whats not to love about this game? Responsive analog controls, fast-paced racing with powerups, characters weve grown up with. this game has not just set the bar for racing games, it has set the bar for video game entertainment period. after all this time, it still holds up against all of its offspring. the Gamecube version is still fun, and the Wii adds a nice gimmick, but this series peaked at the 64's version. if you can afford to blow $20 bucks for a great weekend, its a no brainer. buy Mario Kart 64. 8.9/10

You know, why buy a new game system when the old one is so much cheaper, works just great, the kids absolutely love it, and we're saving the earth too in that we're recycling the old game system instead of throwing it out. Mario Kart is a big hit. The kids play it all the time, with two controllers they can race each other. The graphics are just fine. Thanks for reading this review.

Seller never sent the video game even after the money was taken for the payment. The seller also never responded to the emails about the where abouts of the video game weeks after the initial buying/selling process. This was just a horrible process and I loss on the deal.

  Fun for all kids
Review created: 08/01/08

The first time I played a mario kart game is was on the super nintendo platform when i was a kid loved it.
The game is very fun to play with friends, you can add up to 4 players on the n64.
My advise to you is to buy this game for your kids. The game feature many characters like mario koopa princess, many race track and object to use along the race. This is a clean family fun game and one of my all time favorite titles in the mario nintendo saga. take care

  Get a PS3 absolutely free! This is 100% legitimate
Review created: 07/28/08

I’m sure you've seen various 'free' gift scams on the Internet, but the following offers are NOT scams in any way, shape or form. This method has been covered by respectable sources such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox, Wired and G4.
The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on eBay. They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money that goes toward yours and my free gift.

There are many well known legitimate offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer a few people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link.
Step 1: Click this link
http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=4991526
Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).
Step 3: Complete just 1 free trial offer (like Stamps.com, You will start a trial and can cancel it right after with no charge at all.)
Step 4: Refer to people to do the same. Just do what I’m doing and use eBay.
Step 5: Receive your PS3 for FREE!

If you have any questions feel free to message me!! I'll Respond ASAP.
If you want hints/tips about the whole process, I'd be happy to fill you
in.
