Hmm, sonic and mario...different...

GameMaster 02-24-2002 09:53 PM

Man those MK64 screenshots are old skool! :D
Why did they take Magi Koopa out?:confused:

Ric 02-25-2002 09:59 AM

Because they used Donkey Knog instead, didnt they C.H. lol

Seriously... I dont know, but if you look at the screen I posted you can see Bowser, Mario, Wario, Peach, Yoshi, Luigi, Toad and Magi koopa.

Wario then seems to be Koopa Troopa's Replacement while Magi koopa is in place of Donkey Kong, as these are early screens Nintendo probably hadnt showed the game to Rareware who were at the time probably planning Diddy Kong Racing and Donkey Kong 64. Rare would have given permission for use of the character and the look they wanted him to have and then Magi koopa was replaced.

Mario Kart is crap... I thought that the toon look would mean it was made to be fun... but it's not even fun.

bleh

They all suck, but you are right, the 64 version is by far the worst.

Revival 02-25-2002 12:13 PM

I like Mario Kart, but I do think the N64 version sucked.

MK64 is the first one I ever played... maybe that's why I hate the series so much

*thinks*

Nah... Marioi Kart sucks, period ;)

:lol: Close enough Justin :D

C.H 02-25-2002 02:34 PM

LOOK, Mario Kart on the snes and on the 64 are both brilliant games. And Mario Kart is considered one of the best games ever made. And has been copyed many times, but never beaten. I'm just going to beat Ric to the punch here, because....HE'S GOING TO PISSED WHEN HE SEE'S THIS.

So what? We are entitled to have our opinions.. and you saying 'Look, this was a great game' isn't impressing me too much either.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and while you may not agree with them, we can have them.

1) Mario Kart isn't CLOSE to one of the best games ever made

2) It was copied by Crash Team Racing, and BEAT by Crash Team racing

3) Mario Kart is crap

1. Mario kart sucks little balls... I played the N64 version with my friend and it's so damn boring. There is absolutely no replay value and fun. Can't upgrade karts, no secret characters, and the gameplay is so pointless and simple.

2. They both sucked... I bet a Jak & Daxter kart racing game will be made to beat Mario Super Kart.

3. Agreed

I consider Azurik, Nightcaster better titles than Mario Kart!! Hell Kabuki Warriors and Universal Studious are on a par with Mario Kart.

Mario Karts sucks ass... I played the game. As for Sonic Adventure 2 you probably haven't passed it.

Amen to that! Check my Utlimate Game in the profile if you don't belive me. Dreamcast destroyed Sonic and the story forever. I pretend that Sonic & Knuckles was the last game to make myself feel better. But I hear the GBA Sonic "resurrects" the Sonic we all knew and loved in the days of Genesis. :)

Revival 02-26-2002 08:31 AM

Ahh.. Genesis.. how I miss my Genesis :baby:

Sonic wrong in 3D!! If Sonic Adventure 2 is wrong in 3D then Mario 64 shouldn't even exist because it's such a mediocre game!!

Ric 02-26-2002 11:05 AM

Mario 64 is a great and revolutionary game, I'll not hear a word said against it. I agree that Sonic Adventuire 1 and 2 are great and Shadow is cool, especially when he goes super. I have my doubts about his being dead but hey.

BTW: MARIO KART RULES!!!! Everyone stop being bias fanboys, all games have their merits and downfalls.

Ok, now you're just being stupid.. callingus biased fanboys because we don't like Mario Kart? We can have our opinions, and you can have yours -- but calling us fanboys because we don't like mario cart is beyond stupid.

That's my understand of it too.. he calls us fanboys for not liking the game when he's saying the truly fanboyish stuff.

Is that a bias statement, I think not, Mario Kart does have it's downfalls but it is still a good game. Now then children, lets not start an argument here. I retract my statement about CTR being crap, it is merely a poor rehash of Mario Kart that exploits a different franchise however it has it's merits.

The racing is slow, IMO... And I don't really like the way the carts handle for some reason...
The battle game sucks... I hate the battle thing... even on the SNES game...
I don't really like the powerups much either... I guess it would be even more boring if they took them away, but when I'm playing a racing game, I like it to be like just racing... I dunno...

What's good about it? Well... I like the track designs I guess... they're neato... That's all I can think of right now ;)

So you can see why I don't really like the game very much, so TO ME (meaning IMO) it sucks...

*goes to play rush*

*realizes he doesn't have a Dreamcast or N64*....... *shrugs*

:burger:

Ric 02-26-2002 12:23 PM

Fair enough, and you just made a new friend, Rush 2049 is one of my favourite racing games unfortunatly it is underrated in its popularity, I still have my copy, is the DC version the same as the N64?

EDIT: lol, I just looked at the topic's name, amazing what a discussion can develope into.

azazela31 02-26-2002 12:53 PM

Let me just put it this way.

The people who are mindlessly defending Mario Kart and calling it one of the best game ever, while supressing any other opinion and saying that it's fanboyish that makes us say that the game is bad; are the ones most likely showing their fanboyism.

We don't know -- we're making guesses off of Miyamoto said.
