Played a ton of it on the weekend with my nephew. Still fantastic. I spent a ridiculous amount of time just sitting on the character select screen.

My wife and I were playing through this not long ago. I was playing as Tiptup the turtle, if I recall. I'm... OK at the game. My wife grew up with it, along with Rare's Banjo-Kazooie series, and therefore rocks at both.

It's a good game. Good concepts without being too much of a Mario Kart clone.

The game was amazing for its time. I'm surprised Mario Kart never tried to adapt the adventure game aspect this game started.

A Mario Kart game with boss races, somewhat of a story, some Silver coin collecting, etc.

You should sell the DKR promotional tape. People will pay big bucks for Nintendo Power promotional material especially since its so rare.

I sold all my Nintendo Power advertisements/extras/subscribers bonus stuff on ebay like 2 years ago and made nearly $500 off of all of it.

People on ebay will buy anything of Nintendo's that's rare and old. I literally find old Nintendo Power or junk that's been sitting in my house for the last 15 years...and I can sell it to some random guy on ebay for quite a bit of money. It's a feel-good feeling.

I could never bring myself to do that. I've got every NP issue, all seven Nintendo Fun Club newsletters, all four Nintendo Power Advance guides, and even Pocket Power. I know I could make a truckload of money selling all of those, and I seriously could use the cash, but I just can't do it.

I did, however, sell a tape from the Nintendo Power supplies catalog that showed you how to get the ten toughest starts in Super Mario 64. I didn't get a whole lot for that, but every little bit helped since I was trying to save up for a trip.

A classic Rare N64 game. One of my favorite games back from my childhood.

I liked the setting a lot. The world was pretty cool and fun to explore.

Man, didn't you hate those bosses? Cheating bastards.

The DS DKR enhanced port was pretty good as well.

This game was okay, but I just couldn't really get into it. It just felt like a huge downgrade to MK64.

This a game that I played a lot of during the Nintendo 64 days. I was usually Timber. I liked it quite a bit and for a stretch I even played it more than Mario Kart 64. I just recently moved my Nintendo 64 and Gamecube games and consoles to a new area so I may have to play this game soon.
