Echoing lots of comments in that I loved the multiplayer of Mario Kart 64 and single player of Diddy Kong racing. When my childhood friends and I get together we STILL play Mario kart 64. There's been 20 years of amazing multiplayer games since then but MK64 remains king in our particular group. Some of the music in DKR is just pure nostalgia bliss for me. I often find myself listening to it (and Banjo's) soundtrack regularly. David Wise (and Grant Kirkhope!) is a godly composer. I have a Christmas music playlist that my I play while my wife and I put up the Christmas tree and decorations every year and there are DKR and BK tunes on it mixed in with your Last Christmas, Fairytale Of New York and the likes. Saying that, some of the music in MK64 is amazing as well. The end credits in that game are just magical. From the music swelling to the flyover of all the tracks, then Mario thanking you for playing the game. Just perfect.

I’ve seen many over the years say they, like myself, have a strong connection between dkr and Christmas as a kid 😬

I liked both DKR and MK64. But I was very impressed with Rares ability to adapt to different genres, put out a fairly solid entry while also often advancing the genre a little themselves. Its quite impressive to look at what they put out during the Snes and N64s lifetime, its a mix of quality, quantity and variety that even massive studios and publishers can't seem to match today. While I think MK64 was obviously the template they started with for DKR, I think they went above and beyond in terms of content and graphics. It had 3D models and elaborate tracks. Many different modes including a very well fleshed out adventure mode with its own hub and boss characters to race that were not recycled assets or races from anywhere else in the game. When I was younger it was definitely a game to stick with, even after everyone else had to go home. The powerups were also not random and not rubber banding which made it feel a little different too. MK64 was the first kart racer on the 64 so I have to give it credit for setting the standard. I think the controls may have been slightly sharper too. But I couldn't help but feel it was a little empty looking next to DKR.

I agree with you on the Mickeys Speedway. It’s not bad, but just a bit boring

I have to admit I enjoyed Diddy Kong Racing a hell of a lot more than Mario Kart 64 ,the adventure mode was a great addition and played it to death and as far as I remember I unlocked everything. Your videos are great and I've been playing plenty of Nintendo 64 recently. And may I point out that this was before the Internet really kicked off and the only way to get guides for games were from monthly magazines. Loved those times

It's a real shame that more games haven't copied DKRs hub world. I probably spent as much time chilling there as I did racing. Floating down the lazy river as the score changes themes between the steel drum summer to the plucky xylophone of winter and looking EVERYWHERE for secrets was an absolute joy.

N64 Glenn Plant Understandable yeah

In regards to LEGO Racers, there was a turning delay onto either the N64 or PS1 controls due to the fact that no one tested the controls before release. If you look into the history of where LEGO Racers was made, it was published by LEGO Media(lego.fandom.com/wiki/LEGO_Media). They published games purely on PC which is a shame that LEGO Racers was the underdog of kart racers all because of that one frustrating mechanic from a console port. Media could have prevented this problem by asking High Voltage Software to test the controls before release.

Not a kart racing by definition since there were no karts but Snowboard Kids was a favorite of mine as well. The game was so fun and I haven't seen any other game like it to this day.

I don't have any (physical) friends interested in N64 or retrogaming in general , so I don't care about multiplayer. DDK wins by a long shot. I've just beaten both Adventure and Adventure Two.

I had both mk64 and dkr but we played the latter much more, even in multiplayer. We loved the mk64 battle mode, but dkr had more depth and complexity and also a story. Still, both made me dream and a 11 years old couldn't ask for better games. Only game that later came close to that in the category was snowboard kids.

Diddy Kong Racing - Was a late purchase for me. First played it back in 2006 when me and the family were staying over at a rented house during our holiday. Got the DS remake and fully completed it before eventually getting my own N64 copy. Downside though I struggled to beat the 1st boss ^^; Mario Kart 64 - My 4th game I got for the N64, very nostalgic to me hearing the music again. Really enjoyed it, but was lacking in unlockables as well as not much to keep single players interested with a free play mode. LEGO Racers - Requested this one for Christmas due to the whole 'build your own character and cart'. Was challenging I must say, but completed it in the end. Mickeys Speedway USA - Never picked this game up, but from magazines said at the time, it was actually a great game (Nintendo Official Magazine gave it a 91%) South Park Rally - Always surprised when I hear that South Park Rally is a bad game, because I thought it was rather good as I kept going back to it more than Mario Kart 64 due to the amount of stuff to unlock and different game modes as well as the replayability. Also the magazines gave it positive scores (including N64 Magazine giving it a 88%).

The textures in South park look like placeholder textures, and it's like the game shipped before the artists had a chance to make them

I bought South Park Rally on the Dreamcast & i hated it but after a year or 2 i bought the Dreamcast steering wheel & tried it again & it felt like a different game, not a great one by any means but miles better than it was with a controller. Would love a talented development team to have another crack at it with all the modern South Park characters & potential themed tracks they could do.

The N64 library may have always been one of the smallest but it is indeed full-packed with outstanding games and kart racers on this system were absolutely incredible. My favorite one is Diddy Kong Racing due to its outstanding single player mode as well as the great looking graphics or the usage of Hovercrafts and Planes. Also it is quite difficult, but that is what I like. 😂 The Multiplayer mode of Mario Kart 64 is in my opinion to this date unmatched and by far the funniest I have ever experienced. Mickey‘s Speedway USA is neither as good as DKR nor as Mario Kart 64, still it‘s quite enjoyable But I have also admit that Crash Team Racing on its PS1 Counterpart is perhaps with DKR the greatest fun racer to be ever done. So much content, great soundtrack and design even if it borrowed a lot from DKR or Mario Kart.

It’s a shame the secret characters weren’t all that great though right?

I feel the tracks should be based on locations and area based off the classic Disney cartoons or ducktales/Donald duck comics that would make a way more interesting theme then just different states in the United States

I understand that it is not literally a "kart" racer, but Snowboard Kids deserves some love.

Oh man no Penny Racers. That was my favorite Kart Racer. So many hours spent stealing parts from friends

I don’t see that one as a kart racer, more of a car racer

Loved dkr, mario kart was great too but I don't be hating on Mickey's speedway

Mario Kart was my first N64 game.I think I chose that over Mario 64 as I remember my best friend having SNES Mario Kart but I had a Mega Drive so when the 64 came out that was a chance to get a Mario Kart game of my own!Though I ended up trading it for Perfect Dark. Should never have done that as it’s not the cheapest title to pick up now. Can never understand why though as it’s such a popular and well-owned title?

I think its the same reason that goldeneye and a few others still hold value - they are the games even casual people want to get when they get an n64 console for a nostalgia kick rather than having any intentions of ever being collectors

MK 64 is good, but never like DKR, because DKR is a masterpiece. Multiplayer mode is just a bonus. Don't care if is bad or not, as long as the single player mode is perfect.

Still think adventure mode is best on any kart racer to this day

Sad that High Voltage Software only ever started to hit their stride with The Conduit, and (one of the best, if not the best FPS on Wii) Conduit 2. It's weird to see them not having much ambition these days.

I played the shit out of mario 64 and i thought it was really awesome seeing peaches castle in mario kart 64 as a kid

Question: I know you have an UltraHDMI modded N64, but your capture footage seems to look very different than MetalJesusRocks and other KZreadrs who reviewed that product. The imagine quality is very pixelated. Why does your footage look so different from the other KZreadrs? Also... how do you feel about the EON Super64, and Retrotink 2X products?

It depends what settings you set the mod to. I’ve not tried any of those other products as I have the market leader 👍

DKR is the favourite for me by a long way and pretty much for the same reason, to be fair Ive never tried Mickey though
