Sorry to stop you...

I'm conducting a poll thing. Just a few questions.

1) How old are you?

2) What was the first console you owned?

3) Have you ever owned a Nintendo console?

4) Do you think that Nintendo is a childish company?

Simple few word answers, doesn't take long. Ta. :D

Yeah same here on everything u said really. Wario should have poor handling as he is a fat barstard! but he is my fav character. Also the golden mushrooms are the worst. U sort of like use it 50 times but the next kart will just zoom pat ya!

It may still be there but it's nowhere near as pronounced!

There was a huge difference in the SNES version, compare DK to toad for example.

What can i say if only it used the expansion back or it was brought out later it would look alot better and they would have had more time to make it better!

The difference is still there, and you will notice it if you do something like.... the jump through the tunnel on koopa troopa beach. Can only be done with the faster, lighter characters (unless you use power ups)

Also in the 64 version, the computer karts just seem to be able to cruise up behind you, even if you've just used a mushroom!

Is it me, or on the N64 version, there's no difference in handling between the characters? To me there doesnt feel any difference.

I was well impressed with myself in the SNES version when i'd mastered DK around the first track of the mushroom cup and got a sub-56 second lap in.

That same challenge just doesnt seem to be in the N64 version to me.....

1) They should never have gotten rid of the coins.
2) They shouldn't have made the power ups so ridiculous
3) They should have made the AI better. (Ever seen the computer do a power slide or shoot a red shell? No? Thought not.)

Yeah but even 4 player is a bit crappy. Have u noticed there is no music on 4 player? it really ruins the atmosphere.

I agree, the SNES version is better.

The only good thing about the N64 version is the fourplayer......

I like the Cartoony graphics as well. But some people used it as an excuse for not liking the 64.

anyway, Mario kart 64 aint all that. FOr the past week i have been playing the snes version and it is miles better. When i cam back to the 64 version i was really dissapointed with it.
