Just like when I tried Mario Kart 64 on the Wii's marketplace. It's lousy, really lousy, compared to the newer versions. Don't ruin great memories, they belong in the past for a reason.
- judk 13y agoWow that is exactly the game I thought about buying yesterday. Even with a proper (non-wiimote) controller? I wonder how much is the games not holding up, and how much is adults not liking games. When I watch people playing Halo 14 or whatever, it doesn't look fun at all.
- hisham_hm 13y agoJust play Mario Kart Wii. I had an equivalent experience by trying the original Mario Kart in a SNES emulator recently. The experience of playing the SNES version back then was the same as playing the Wii version now; playing the SNES version now it feels too crude.
- devindotcom 13y agoI never liked 64... or the newer versions. The SNES version is still the greatest if you ask me, and still one of the best games ever made. Wish there were a few more battle maps though.
- iamphilrae 13y agoWhatever you do, do not try an emulated version of Goldeneye. In my head that is one of the best games ever, but I just know these days it is just plain awful. There's a PS3 remake of the same name from the team that were originally Rare. I bought it a couple of years ago and it's very good, but still, it doesn't compare to 14 year old me crowded around my 21" CRT with 3 school mates playing 'golden gun' in the 'facilities' level. Fond fond memories.
