Overview
A 64-bit follow-up to the wildly successful SNES game, Mario Kart 64 is racing fun for up to four players. Race as Mario, or as one of his seven friends, through a variety of exciting and colorful courses, while collecting items and dodging the attacks of fellow racers. Multi-player is just as thrilling with challenging versus matches, or the popular battle arena. An instant Nintendo classic!
While in development, Mario Kart 64's title was "Super Mario Kart R." An early racer line-up featured Magikoopa, who was later replaced by Donkey Kong.
