A pretty good game!

When I first played this game before I had an N64, I thought is was hard to control (just like Jet Motto.)Then when I recently bought it, it totaly rocked! The graphics are colorful and realistic ant the races are ok. The problem with the races is that you have to menuver through a bunch of stupid obsticles in order to power up. Also, if you miss 5 obsticles, you retire from the race and get 0 pts. The game also could have used some more practice courses, ramps, and most of all, more TRICKS!A better challenge would be nice too. But all in all, this was a cool game. I was pretty impressed.

Best racer ever!

For a game that was released in '96, those graphics are pretty [darn] good. The physics are real, and the control is tight, making it feel like you're actually racing a jet ski. Best race of all-time, until it's sequel comes out on the Dolphin system.

NON STOP FUN!

This is one of the best racing games out there. If your planning on having a sleep over soon, this is the game to buy. I know from experience! I had a friend over and we ended up staying up all night trying to beat the game and beating our own personal time records. Its a non stop fun game every n64 gamer should have. ENJOY!!!...

Why not this game?

If you are in the mood for an exciting game this is it Wave Race 64 is probley the best game for you. The speed and thrill of different tricks such as barrel rolls double backflips even put them together as one move.So if you like speed and tricks this the game for you. Ride exciting courses on your jet ski with a choice of 4 characters you will never be board.

It does get a lil boring after youve had it for a few yrs cuz you eventually get super-good at it that theres no challange because theres only a limited amount of tricks you can do and raceways to unlock. But it is fun trying to bet your own high scores!

Wave Race takes you to another, fun world.

With four characters to choose from, you can get your race on! I've felt very strongly for a couple of the Nintendo 64 racing games and they are as follows:

Snowboard Kids 2
Mario Kart 64
Wave Race 64

They're all really fun and even though you don't get items to use against your foes in this game, just plain racing can get quite competitive. Most of the people that I knew weren't into this game but it was OK because racing against the computers had never been more fun!

If you still have a Nintendo 64 or just got one, I highly recommend this game as well as the ones above. And if you have a Nintendo GameCube, I'd recommend Wave Race: Blue Storm. It's almost as fun as this game.

Ciao!

Waverace is not fun

I have played and watched this game for over a year and it has always been dull and boring. It is the worst race game I have ever played. It is only 2 players and their is no action. The only reason I would buy this game would be to look at the graphics, but otherwise, it's bad.

Not a very good game

In my opinion Wave Race64 was not a very fun game.The objective is to race a jet ski in an arena and place between 1-3 to continue to the next round.In the game there is a time race,a stunt mode,championship mode,and warm up.Yes it sounds like an alright game but you can be the judge about that.I gave it 2 stars because of good graphics.

Not so good for youngsters

I bought this for my 5 year old (who usually plays older games) but he played it a few times then got bored with it. He regularly rotates through his other games, so this is an exception. This might be a challenge for somebody older, but I wouldn't recommend it for a younger kid.
