“Mario Kart 64 is the best Mario Kart” is the wildest gaming take I hear on the reg.
Everyone who says this wants to sound cool and experienced - and yeah a lot of video game series used to be better - but Mario Kart isn’t one of em.
Pal, Mario Kart 64 is not the best. It’s not even good!

That’s a very fun game for a lot of people. Memories playing a game with friends in a basement are what make games great to most people.
Let people like what they like
I also notice that two different usian-centric sports have their place on this list but neither FIFA nor PES are in it.
It’s got great tracks, great characters, it’s gorgeous, it’s got the best soundtrack of any Nintendo game ever.
It’s got Mount Wario.
Double Dash is great if you like cars with ice cubes for wheels and falling off the edge of tracks
If you customize your kart with stats in mind, you’re dragging everyone else you’re playing with into hell along with you.
Explain to satan
Look, *I'm* going to hell, but they will trash their elementary peers.
I've played every MK since the beginning and 8DX is far and away the best the series has ever been. And that was before the Booster Course Pass.
Aside from Funky and Daisy meta, it's got probs my fav item balancing (and lightning not hitting people behind u cuz thats dog water design choice from 8).
Wii's probs the main non mk8 Mario Kart that still has an active playerbase, esp with the mods they have now.
8 cleaned up almost all of the rough edges that Wii had (you’re right about lightning though) then 8D fixed a lot of the balance issues in 8.
Mostly I’m still a bit mad about Wii introducing bikes.
I'm just saying the other 2 mentioned are on par with wii. If wii is young gen nostalgia, then so is ice cube wheels double dash.
Oh, nostalgia...
Mario Kart 64 is bottom tier.
The way that the character models are 2D sprites is novel in theory but super ugly in action.
Also, it introduced the blue shell
It's like people that cling to the N64 era for some reason. It's just weird to me. I started with the NES and seeing how far gaming has come is INSANE. And I could never go back. Early 3D is so clunky and shows its age.
Am I going to hell too? 🤣 I don't know why, but the controls feel better or make better sense for me. Sumo digital is a great developer for racing games.
Personally for me Wii peaked and 8 deluxe was awesome 😎
Now, if they say the battle mode is the best, YES! Nothing like it, imo.
If 64 was your first one, it GOT YOU...
If Double Dash was your first one, it GOT YOU...
And so on, etc.
Fundamentally wrong, but fair
I play MK8DX in 4k on a giant screen and love IT!
