One of the best racing games of all time. Mario Kart helped spawn the "kart" style of shoot 'em up racing.

Fun game. I agree with numbah, druken Mario Kart is fun.

Hey numbah, as far as drunken Mario Kart, I still have the Gamecube with Mario Kart Double Dash.

Best when drunk.

UPDATE: Battle mode might be more fun than racing, particularly when my above condition has been met.

Lovely graphics and courses. This is an especially fun game if you have two or more people to compete with. I have some great memories of playing with 3 other people on battle mode.

Less fun as a one-player game.

The spectacular Mario Kart series continued with style and substance on its second installment on the Nintendo 64. Although the riders were sprite-based, the courses were spectacularly polygonal and also filled with both creative new vistas and references to games of Mario past. The music was also very Mario-like and of course the sound effects were classic. With great single-player and even better multiplayer (such as the uber-fun Battle Mode), Mario Kart 64 certainly set the standard for racing games at the time--a standard that other games like Gran Turismo could not possibly reach.

Rainbow road is not nearly as good as in the original when they had no railing on most of the course. I still sometimes play this game when I have nothing better to do or when I am looking for some competition I play with my sisters.

You know you can have a successful game franchise when the predicessors to the original can prove to be superior to the original product. In all aspects, Mario Kart 64 is that much superior to the SuperNES classic and then some. Much of the beloved original gameplay is incorporated into this sequel along with great additions such as more unique and fun races, and more luscious landscapes. The multiplayer mode on this game became on of the first hints to game makers that group games will sell tremendously.

Its not as good as I expected it to be.The graphics are decent,the gameplay is just plain bad.There's no single player but to race,no secrets but the backtrack modes,and the voice-overs are annoying.IMO,Diddy Kong Racing is much better.

This is an excellent sequal to the Super Nintendo version. The tracks are challenging, the characters have neat voices and the music fits the theme of the tracks. The only thing missing is a race track creator/editor of some kind.

This game is a great multi-player game and is a drastic improvement from the orginal Super Nintendo version. Very fun to play and stirs up a lot of friendly competition. The only problem is that if you play it a lot the limited number of tracks (16) get kind of old.

Wonderful game. 4 stars in fun factor. 4 stars in SFX. 4 stars in music. 4 stars in re-play value. But it leans more towards 3 stars than 5 stars b/c I find it lacks in the battle mode. A great game for kids, ages 5-12. and not bad for older children and adults.

This game is so much fun. Good graphics and all the tracks are nice and sharp. There are shortcuts just like the old one. There are better weapons including the spikey shell. The game's tracks offer a different environment and obstacles to avoid. A great game to play with friends.

I gave this game such a low score because I have played it and I did not enjoy it. I think Nintendo is targeting a younger audience and expecting them to be easily amused because they are children. This game is similar to many redundant Nintendo and SuperNintendo games.

I gave the N64's MarioKart 64 game a good rating because it's a repeat of the Super Nintendo game MarioKart which everybody loved. The graphics and options have improved as well as the character selection. Another enjoyable feature is that the game responds better and doesn't have a tendency to freeze. It also is easier to control and you can do advance movements with analog control.

Everytime I play the Nintendo 64, I always play Mario Kart. I think it's a really fun game to play. It's also an easy game to play because my nephew can play it. I enjoy playing racing games which is probably why I like this game so much.

I don't get why everyone loves this game? To me it is just an average racing car game. Not bad, but not extrodinary either. If you play it often, you could get hooked but so can other video games such as Outrunner. Overall, an okay game.

While in your dorm room or at your apartment, this game is great for stirring up conversation and friendly competition. Try this ("The Dinner Circuit"): Play 4 player and who ever comes in last place after a circuit has to buy or cook dinner for the other 3 players. I have earned Chinese food and Whoppers from my roomates. Ready, set....EAT!
