Mario Kart 64*, they play so similar

Was I the only one who thought this game was too slippery? As a kid I would constantly go off the track just from turning. I liked the one on the other not retro handheld a lot better.

no, the snes one is very slippery too playing it again now that i'm older and have played most of the other ones.

What’s the matter? The game is literally a copy of Mario Kart 64, it did nothing original

>>9207297
No it's a sequel to the SNES game except with too bright kart and character sprites.

No, it was very much a new entry in the series, they just reused assets from Mario Kart 64 because those pre-rendered graphics still look pretty fucking good even years after the fact. Those SGI Workstations were still being used during the early GBA/GCN days for that stuff, it's hard to look at the artwork they were capable of and not being impressed by it.
Hell, just recently Nintendo put up some of the N64 promos like pic related up as Club Nintendo rewards with even higher resolution sizes.

no. this pile of shit wasnt even 3d like mario kart 64

kino game. still play often.

It was designed in the same style as SMK/MK64 where the karts are very slippery and the game rubber bands hard before DD really tightened the controls up
I know some people who swear by the original Mario Kart style and aren't fond of the newer games but I've always found it to be a good change

Once again, without fail, OP proves himself to be a fucking retarded faggot.

>>9207235
Just yesterday I played this and I can't believe how much better it is than MK Super Circuit

>>9207235
>canceled

>sequel to Mario Kart 64
Why was that in doubt to you?

Baffling thread

it's very slippery, but you eventually get used to it. It's fun once you get the hang of it.
