About this game

Mario Kart 64 brings eight familiar faces, including Mario, Bowser and Yoshi, to the race on four progressively tougher four-track cups.

Wide curves and gentle banks mark the Mushroom Cup tracks.

Your commute gets notably tougher on the Flower Cup, though.

The player will have to dodge semis rumbling on Toad's Turnpike and bouncing boulders on fogbound Choco Mountain! Star Cup tracks range from the icy surfaces of Sherbet Land to the lava lakes of Bowser's Castle.

The true test of karting competence, though, comes on the four tracks in Special Cup.

Zip through the dark caves and green hillsides of Donkey Kong's Jungle Parkway, cling to the sheer cliffs of Yoshi Valley and hustle over haunted Banshee Boardwalk, before tackling the longest track in the game: neon-lit Rainbow Road.

The game offers two camera angles and three engine sizes: 50cc, 100cc and 150cc.

You can gain even more speed by mastering the power slide technique or grabbing Super Star power-ups.

Each kart has distinctive handling, acceleration and top speed capabilities.

Light karts like that of Princess Peach smoothly steer through tight corners, but run the constant risk of getting flattened by heavy karts, such as Donkey Kong's.

Shells that you fire at rival racers, bananas that make them skid out and lightning bolts that make them small and very slow are just a few of the game's unique power-ups.

About Nintendo Wii U

The Wii U (2012) was commercially Nintendo's least successful home console, hampered by market confusion over whether the GamePad tablet controller was a new device or a Wii accessory. Its low sales mean smaller overall print runs across the board, and several first-party and indie darlings have already become noticeably pricier than their commercial performance would suggest, since there are simply fewer copies in circulation.

Gamevaro tracks Mario Kart 64 for Nintendo Wii U with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Mario Kart 64 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WIU release dates back to 2016.

Rarity & condition

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Mario Kart 64, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Wii U titles.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
