Today’s game is Mario Kart 64. It was a long day today so i decided to kick back and just take it easy. So, this was my first choice. I did the Mushroom Cup mainly today. It was feeling like a Train kind of mood, you know? Sometimes all we need to really make a good day is a train.

I got first place in all of them. I did mess up a little on the first cup because i kept accidentally hitting Print Screen instead of F12 to take a screenshot and that would freeze up my entire thing, but i adapted quickly and caught up in first place by the second lap.

On Koopa Troopa beach i kept accidentally drowning Toad while trying to get screenshots though. I wouldn’t be surprised if he lost a few brain cells from being deprived of oxygen. Sorry Toad.

While playing through this i realized the version in World is vastly different, i don’t know if it’s a bad kind of different or just a different kind of different. But it was something i noticed. I suppose if i didn’t notice it’s just different different, but who knows.

Anyways, i did the entire cup and came in first. Overall, relaxing way to spend my evening. It’s fun to kick back and relax with a game that is very basic and fundamental like this. It’s very low stress. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to try new ways to kill some time for the evening.

    Each of these entries has a reason to play them. Sure mk8 might look better but there’s still lots of fun to be had in the older titles. I’ll always have a soft spot for double dash and mkds

      I always love revisiting the other entries. It’s nice to mix things up everyonce and while. I don’t think i’ve done a screenshot for it but i mess around with friends a lot in MK7 too

        The online on mk7 was so broken at launch, everyone used that glitch to skip half the map on that Wii sports resort map😭

          Damn. I wasn’t there for launch but that about sounds like a Mario Kart glitch. I remember when I first found out about Wii’s super shortcuts. That shits crazy
