This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

I'm probably gonna get flack for this, but, based take, no clue what everyone else is on about. Must just be nostalgia bias, I remember the whole internet singing the praises of MK64 a decade ago, but like, it is really ass compared to any other game in the franchise.

For anyone who thinks 64 is better than SMK and SC, check out this video and then come back to me. (granted, video doesn't talk about SC, but like, SC is just an improved version of SMK)

For anyone who thinks 64 is better than Tour.... fair point, but like, the only reason Tour is so bad is cause Mobile. Outside of that, it's not that bad.

For anyone who thinks 64 is better than 7.... why? The only thing bad with 7 is it's lack of a single player VS mode. Outside of that, 7 is a pretty good game, although outshined by 8 in every way.

For anyone who thinks 64 is better than World, chill out, World ain't even out yet, ok.

For anyone who thinks 64 is better than DD, DS, Wii, 8, or 8DX, I know you're trolling at that point.

Even still, 64 is still not that bad, and I can probably come up with at least half a dozen worse racing games off the top of my head. I'm really excited to see how people use this decomp to actually make 64 a good game.
