I loved MK64 so much at the time...

Perhaps too much. As part of my A-Level statistics coursework I used 100 laps done with 3 different characters on Koopa-Trooper beach as my data!

At the time I thought it was a fantastic way for me and my buddies to play Mario Kart while pretending to do work - needless to say I think my mark for that project wasn't particularly good...

Apparently Golden Sun has 2 sequel RPG games. Are all 3 good? Thinking about giving it a shot.

#2 to SSB64. Awesome game, though. And yeah, all 3 golden sun games are great. Lost Age is IMO the best.

Is it just me or did moo moo farm feel like a knife fight every time? I enjoy a good knife fight.

Here's a handy little guideline for you.

The Broken Seal: Amazing.

The Lost Age: Even more amazing.

Dark Dawn: Significantly worse. Not recommended to purchase unless you love the series as much as I do.

Trust me on this. Like I said earlier in the thread, I've clocked 2,000 hours across both TBS and TLA just because of how great they are, and still play both quite often, trying new things and setting new goals for myself. In contrast, I've played about 65 hours of Dark Dawn, and haven't touched it in a year. DD was a total letdown for me, unfortunately. Hopefully, the implied sequel will restore my faith in Camelot.

I hate to use a 4chan-ism, but it's applicable here: if every race isn't a knife fight in the end, you're doing it wrong.

I feel obligated to post just for the GS mention :D

For me, it was SSBM and Double Dash... ahh good times. So many milestones... discovering C-Sticking (lol my Marth friend), learning how to land Rests and pulling off Wall of Pain, finding out about the competitive scene via combo vids, learning advanced techniques

...Advance Wars, anyone?

Edit: I agree with Archas's assessment of the GS games. GS + TLA taught me the basics of RNG manipulation :D (them and Fire Emblem... lol)

You aren't the only one to have fought valiantly on the N64 controllers playing Mario Kart 64, the ultimate test of skill. I swore I would never surrender that game to another because (in my humble preteen opinion) it was the best game on the universe ever. Graphics too. Battle mode best imo.
  • Timing green shells to patrol areas of block fortress. It was possible to set up a circuit.
  • Banana peels around corners that you were used to taking at speed to prevent circumventing them
  • Intercepting shells with other shells
  • Racing towards green shells to initiate conflict


Good nostalgic memories there.

MK64 and SSB are two games I continue to play pretty regularly. Glad to see some love!
now run into the setting sun, and suffer, but don't mess up your hair.

I didn't get much into mariokart 64 but I have many fond memories of racing games with friends and trash talk, especially if the racing game including weaponry of some sort. So I can definitely relate!

As sick as MK64 was.... I still maintain that Double Dash took everything to another level.


the only thing DD had in its favour over MK64 was that picking a waluigi/daisy team and switching drivers ALL THE TIME is the most annoying thing ever and gets many wins through opponent's tilt

MK64! =D

Although I left my old N64 behind and now I only have Wii / X360, I still play Mario Kart Wii from time to time. The triumphs of bumping a Toad off the Rainbow Road remain just as good.

5/5 I had SNES and 2 games on it, racing F-Zero and Super Mario Brothers. It took some years to finish off Koopa in SMB but even then there were some parts unexplored on the map. I remember my patent on getting dozens of lives in a single game in the East Island's forest by jumping with Yoshi on caterpillars. I wonder what happened to this console.

Currently I think I'll buy Xbox for Gears of War 2 and 3 and maybe Battlefield 3 and some other games.
