Part 1 of a playthrough of Nintendo's Mario Kart 64 for the N64. All four cups in 150cc won consecutively with no restarts or save states. When it comes to racing games, few are as chaotic as Mario Kart, so this seemed like a logical choice for a video. I decided to go with the N64 version due to its age and the fact that I've become extremely rusty at the SNES game. The first thing that becomes apparent is just how much the Mario Kart series has changed since then. First of all, the controls are very different, it took me a long time to get my Powersliding down again, but the far greater difference is in the way weapons operate. The weapon roulette is far less balanced towards your current position, you'll notice I can get Lightning Bolts in 3rd and Super Mushrooms in 2nd. The other big difference is that the computer doesn't use all of the weapons, I never have a single Red Shell or Blue Shell fired my way. They make up for this by being way faster than you are, but as long as you smack them back down every time they catch up, maintaining the lead actually isn't too hard. Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy this video. In order to beat all 4 cups consecutively, I had to practice a lot, so there's maybe not quite as much mayhem as there might have been, but there are still a lot of people getting blown up. I'm-a Wario! I'm-a gonno ween! Mario Kart 64 copyright 1996 Nintendo.
