Game Profile - Mario Kart 64
Description
Mario Kart 64 is a racing game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64. It was released in 1996 in Japan and in 1997 in North America and Europe. On January 25, 2007, Mario Kart 64 was released on Nintendo's European Virtual Console service for the Wii. It was released on the American service on January 29, 2007, and in Japan on January 30, 2007. This is one of the first games that the ESRB gave it an E rating instead of the K-A rating.
Mario Kart 64 is the sequel to Super Mario Kart for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Changes from the original include the move to 3D computer graphics and the inclusion of four-player support. Players take control of characters from the Mario universe, who race around a variety of tracks with items that can either harm opponents or aid the user. The move to three-dimensional graphics allowed for track features not possible with the original game's Mode 7 graphics, such as changes in elevation, bridges, walls, and pits. However, the characters and items remained 2D pre-rendered sprites.
