Mario Kart 64 Classic
Best retro racing games
Racing games range from realistic driving to kart racers with weapons and shortcuts. Races are short, making them great for quick sessions and split-screen rivalries.
Typical commitment: quick session. Tip: Learn each track's racing line and braking points; in kart racers, item strategy matters as much as driving.
