Mario Kart 64 (Nintendo 64)

  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.

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do). The best offer to do is STAMPS.com. Its free, all you need to do is register and follow the instructions. And you’re on your way

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free Xbox 360 Elite or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 4 week free trial and it is free!). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 5-13 people or friends (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay or any other message board, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your Xbox 360 Elite or your selected item for free, I chose the Cash. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! 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 which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.

Step 1: Click my link: http://www.360Elite4free.com/index.php?ref=5143649

Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer up to 13 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my ad).

Step 4: Receive your Xbox 360 Elite or Cash for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping Is Free!!!)

For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the company that is behind everything.

This game NEVER gets old! I've been obsessed with Mario Kart 64 every since it first came out. It still sells for $20 on eBay and it's almost 13 years old! With up to 4 players you can have an all-out race-war in your own living room.

Best racing game EVER! You have to have this game if you own an N64. Choose from different characters, maps, and difficulty levels and race amongst other nintendo characters trying to win the gold cup. Each level has different obstacles and certain things you have to look out for. The game gets really exciting when you hit these magic squares. You are then given a objects or skills to be used against your opponents and help you win (e.g.: shells to be thrown at other players, turbo boosters, banana peels to make other people spin out). This game is excellent and tons of fun.

I like the style and different skill levels available in this game and system. It's a fun game for single player progresion of skill and also is a very very fun multi-player game. i bought this game because when I found the system being sold at a low price by a friend I had to go out and find all the games that i used to love playing over at friends houses when i was younger and didn't have a n-64 of my own.

Best Mario Kart ever made. The new versions get too caught up in the graphics to capture the magic that this version created. Don't fool yourself. Just buy it.

Since receiving Mariokart 64. We've spent countless hours playing it. You get to take out your frustrations out on others, blowing people up, running people over, or just knocking them off a cliff. It's just so much fun. I'm going to go take a nap now.

One of the Nintendo classics. It is an awesome game on any of the nintendo systems. I have played it on everything from SNES to the Wii and it never disappoints. Plus it is probably the only game my wife will play, so there you have it.
