Looks much better than Double Dash.

Although like Null, I'm a little sad to see Pac-Man thrown in there. Who knows what other outcasts have been tossed in there also?

However, if Sonic was in the game and he ran instead of driving, that would be cool.

That face thing is just like in the anime GTO when they are racing in the arcade.

Looks very cool. Wonder how hard it would be to bluespark with the steering wheel.

Sentimentally strikes again making an older game appear better than it was. Did you play Double Dash? I went back to the 64 one after and couldn't believe how anyone could have EVER preferred that.

yes played it. beat it. beat all the unlockables etc.



problem is, it sucked. tracks were unispired and short. in 64, you had some great maps. and memorable ones, ones that you want to play again and again. after a few times in DD, started to get sick of em.


then they absolutly DESTROYED the battle mode.

Battle mode in MK64, big big battle maps. you went around things, up on different levels. they were BIG.

Battle mode in MKDD, tiny maps. theres some with barly any room to move at all. and then the put giant ass weapons that you fire and they take up the entire size of the map itself.

only thing i can see that they did right, besides graphics, was the sense of speed. in DD you feel like your going much faster.

other then that tho, i dont know how anyone would not think MK64 was better. it may look ugly as hell. but they did it right.

Yes, battle mode was a major let down. I can see DD not being fun after a while if playing single player...but multi rules supreme.

I went back to the 64 one recently. The maps were so boring. Toad's Turnpike used to be one of my favorites...I couldn't figure out why I used to like it after playing it again.

Screw it... *a few minutes later* Ok, just played Mario Kart 64's Special Cup on 150cc. *Yawn*

Eh, not gonna argue. To each his own. But to call DD crap is blasphemy.

actually i rarly played it alone, it wasnt my game, i beat the game while playing multiplayer.
DD isnt even half the game mk64 is. and yes. i've played it again recently. and i cant and never could stand 64 graphics. but the game is still better. expecially battle. which was always the best part of the game.


Nintendo just didnt live up to the 64 version with it. not at all. just like they didnt nearly live up to the 64 version of Mario Golf. (idiots cut out mini golf) and so far im undicded on mario tennis. i dont own that one so havnt gotten a lot of time with it yet.
