Mario Kart 64 is trash. Played it at my friend's house who owns an N64. Hasn't aged well at all. 

DD battle mode is far better. 

Just like the N64 courses in Mario Kart 8 are far better than the (bland) original ones. 

Nope. MK64 tracks with less effects, lighting and worse graphics requieres better skills, are more narrow and more varied. MK8 just looks beautiful but doesn't have any difficult, are wide and with different ways enough to eliminate the sense of being in a competition. All you need to do is keep your distance and use items, which, are worse and you can only have one at a time (way inferior feature to the predecessors), with examples like the useless coins.

MK64 tracks are bland and ugly. The game is not as narrow because it supports 12 players now, instead of just 8. Mario Kart Wii was fucking annoying with everyone bumping into you. At least in Mario Kart 8 you get a speed boost when someone bumps into you while you're in anti-gravity mode. Very good addition, even if it's small. 

And having one item is actually more strategic than having two. Defensive players got rewarded way too highly before Mario Kart 8, especially someone with 6 shells or bananas.
