Played them both this week. 1st in the first three races. About to win the last raceI get hit with a blue shell, lightning, crushed, red shell, and bumped into again. 1st to last place. Immediately just turn the switch off.

Dkr has a better soundtrack, driving, levels. Soundtrack is godlike, you now have the main menu theme stuck in your head. Better characters with actual personalities, a story, a hub world, and actually unlockables

Misread the topic as Mario Kart 64 and was about to mention how none of that stuff could happen in MK64 (the AI never got Red Shells or Spiny Shell).

Because it's kind of weird to compare a N64 game with a Switch game from a different franchise.

because Mk8 is considered the definitive Mario Kart experience and diddy Kong is better

It took me decades to admit this, but it is.

When they were new, I liked Mario Kart 64 better because it had a better cast. Replaying DKC a few years ago, the gameplay really just blew MK64 out of the water.

yep, its weird how it got such lukewarm reception compared to 64. 64 is so barebones

Honestly, it's entirely down to the cast.

Mario Kart 64 featured a who's who of prominent characters in the Mario universe. Diddy Kong Country had the eponymous Diddy and a bunch of cute animal characters. Some of them would go on to star in their own games, but they were not yet stars at the time of this game's release.

MK64 has much better time trials. It's really fun trying to break the game by jumping out of bounds.
DKR has awful time trials. It's not very fun flying out of bounds where you can't see anything. Even playing "legit" is a bit boring.

DKR has a much better single player experience.

I think Timber literally went to jail after this game, as far as arcane Diddy Kong canon is concerned.
