Mario Kart 64

Mario Kart 64 is the second main installment of the Mario Kart series. It is the first game in the series to use three-dimensional graphics, but the characters and items are still two-dimensional, pre-rendered sprites. The game offers two camera angles and three engine sizes, 50cc, 100cc and 150cc. Each kart has distinctive handling, acceleration and top speed. Shells that you fire at rival racers, Bananas that make them skid out and Lightning Bolts that make them small and very slow are a few of the power-ups in the game. Mario Kart 64 is an arcade racing game with a party and kids theme. It supports single player and multiplayer, including split screen play, and it is played from a third-person view behind the kart. Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development developed it and Nintendo published it for the Nintendo 64 in 1996. It was later made available on the Wii and the Wii U. As the second game in the Mario Kart series, it follows the first one and sits in the wider Mario franchise.
