The original and retro tracks in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are gorgeous in both handheld and docked mode. Though I was one of the five people who owned a Wii U, I didn't buy Mario Kart 8 until the Nintendo Switch version, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. My Mario Kart journey started with Mario Kart DS, and then I moved on to the Wii and 3DS versions. If I had to choose, I'd say that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the definitive Mario Kart game. Mario Kart 64 is good for light-hearted, local multiplayer, and while Mario Kart 8 Deluxe offers robust online play and more options. While drifting is a bit tricky at first in the N64 game, the sheer number of variables in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe means that there are a lot of opportunities to be at a disadvantage.Įach game has its place depending on the experience you'd like to have. I may be alone in this, but I feel like Mario Kart 64's difficulty is a lot lower than Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. But for single-player and multiplayer experiences, Mario Kart 64 is still just as great as it used to be.
Until the lag issues in the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack are resolved, I'd recommend leaving online play to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. However, now that both of these games, along with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, are on the Switch, I'd say they each have their place.
A smaller subsection of those fans prefer Mario Kart 64, the series' first foray into the third dimension. You'll hear lots of die-hard Mario Kart fans claim that Double Dash is the best game in the series. There were some hiccups, but we generally made it through the Cup (I lost, but that's not important), laughing and having fun. I played through a couple of Cups in single-player before moving on to playing Mario Kart 64 online with a friend. The controls came naturally, even if the drifting took some getting used to. I expected to find the controls janky and unforgiving, like other retro games, but to my surprise, I had a blast. I was already familiar with many of the tracks, given that every game from Mario Kart DS onward included retro tracks in their Grand Prix courses. So when I heard that Mario Kart 64 was coming to the Nintendo Switch, I was a bit apprehensive. When I played the game again in the Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection, the iconic plumber felt a little too slippery, which made judging distance difficult. I played the Nintendo DS remake for a short amount of time, but couldn't get behind the strange control scheme that had to be implemented due to the handheld's lack of an analog control stick. The takeaway here is that Super Mario 64 Online is unlikely to be a special case, and it's probably only a matter of time until Nintendo sends out a take-down notice to the creators.Īt any rate, emulators are far from a dying breed, and that means gamers are likely to find any means necessary to play almost any game they want.I'm not the biggest fan of Super Mario 64.
All this Nintendo versus fan creators is pretty heated, and it even spawned things like DMCA's Sky, following the takedown of No Mario's Sky. We can go all day, but the point is, in the end, they had one thing in common: They were all taken down by Nintendo. Another example is Pokémon Prism, which didn't even manage to roll out, but it was leaked by pirates, though. Of course, this isn't the first time that we've seen someone turn something based on a Nintendo game into something glorious.įor instance, there was Pokémon Uranium, which the developer spent nine years in creating. Meanwhile, the necessary resources can be downloaded via Google Drive or Discord.
