Mario Kart 64 Review

From the review: "Everyone who's been playing video games since their youth will have fond memories of certain games. There'll be at least one game that you remember playing over a school holiday, most likely with friends, or a game that you spent all your free time trying to beat. In my case one such game is Mario Kart 64; so when it arrived on Nintendo's Virtual Console I had to see if those great memories would come flooding back or be ruined by seeing the game ten years after its original release. The truth is a bit of both."

The Best Selling N64 Games of All Time

Want to know what the best selling N64 games of all time are? Here's the top ten list, with many fan favourites and a couple of surprises.

Ninver399d ago

Never understood what 64 meant. Can anyone enlighten me? All I know is my neighborhood friends and I used to play the crap out of it. Favorite games were Cool Boarders, Mario kart 64, WCW vs NWO just to name a few. Man life was simple and good.

Mario Kart 64 Is Now Available In HD Graphics

A fan project allows Mario Kart 64 fans to experience one of the most prominent games in Nintendo history in HD.

MadLad528d ago

Can't wait for Nintendo to strike it down, sue the makers, then sell the work to us for $50.

CobraKai528d ago

I think the disagrees stem from the $50. It’ll be $60.

Duke19528d ago

And converted back to non-HD

ZeekQuattro528d ago

It's on the expansion pass already and Mario Kart 8 sells millions every quarter. I think Nintendo will be fine.

MadLad528d ago

I figured with something like this Nintendo would do right by the gamers and sell it at a deep discount lol.

Knushwood Butt527d ago

And sell an overpriced, painted plastic toy as a tie in.

Nintendo is helpless if they upload it as a torrent and share it. Once it's on a torrent site Nintendo can't do shit about it. ROMs have been there for so many years, and it will continue to do so, and I will be there to take it all and post links directly to Nintendo and laugh about it, with my VPN of course 🤣

Yui_Suzumiya527d ago

I was coming here to make this comment, lol

z2g528d ago (Edited 528d ago )

Lol. Meanwhile the rest of the world moved on to 4k years ago.

Number1TailzFan528d ago

The last 1-2 years maybe, unless you didn't care about having a high refresh rate.

MadLad528d ago

I've been running 4k for a long time now, but I'm on PC.
Switch rarely gives you decent resolution or a solid framerate.

Number1TailzFan527d ago

MadLad i didn't go 4k until we had high refresh rate screens, which also had better pixel response times. I originally went 1080p 120hz in 2012, then 1440p high refresh with gsync in 2017 and last year i went with the 4k LG 27GP950. I didn't want to go backwards on refresh rate. I realise we had 4k monitors a while ago but they were all at 60hz.

anubusgold527d ago

4k is stupid low fps and less detail because consoles cant really handle it without using tricks like checker boarding.

Sgt_Slaughter527d ago (Edited 527d ago )

65.06% of Steam users are using 1080p
11.34% use 1440p
5.70% use 1366 x 768
.
.
.
2.60% for 4K

So no, they haven't. 4K is still for enthusiasts and the ultra hardcore. The rest don't care.

Kombatologist528d ago

"this mod also has a low chance of removal due to copyright reasons."

Not sure how they came to that conclusion when the GitHub has copyrighted assets in the form of PNG files. Get it while you can.

Orchard528d ago

Looks cool, but Nintendo will shut this down faster than you can say “it’s a me, Mario!” in your best Italian accent.

Einhander1971527d ago

So many bitter little people on this site, personally I doubt Nintendo really care about your comments anyway.

badz149527d ago

Nintendo doesn't even care about their fans, let alone the booing noise regarding how anti-consumer and scummy they are. they only listen to the path that leads to more money with the least amount of effort and investment possible.
