We all love Mario Kart 64, but that's largely due to nostalgiavision. Objectively, it's probably the weakest in the series

I'd say Metroid, but one misstep does not a mishandled franchise make. There's just a lot of trepidation in that fandom about what they'll do next, or more scarily still, when they'll do it. The 1994-2002 gap weighs on our minds.


I would have to disagree with u.

Personally I don't like how they changed and nerfed the effectiveness the turning and boosting starting with double dash.  Learning how to turn and boost was a key part of 64 and was the reason that skilled players had an advantage over others.

The item pickup rate wasn't perfect in 64 but the items weren't nearly as op as in Mario kart wii and double dash.  Some of the items u would get when in late places could put you in last to first in seconds (chomp chain comes to mind).  Reducing the skill and increasing the chance is a huge turnoff in a racing game for me.

You should play against amp316 or RolStoppable then you'll know that skill is very important in Mario Kart Wii.


Can't cause I sold it a long time ago.  I would love to go head to head in Mario kart 64 tho :p
