Talk:Mario Kart 64

If someone were bored enough they could go through and document all the unused debugging text and the textures/voices changed from the Japanese version. HyperHacker 01:38, 22 November 2010 (EST)

Feather item?
Back in the early N64 days, I recall seeing a printed ad of MK64 where one of the screenshots featured a feather item (presumably the same item as in the original SMK). The fact that I could never find it in-game confused me back then. So, my question is whether or not any remnants of this item still exist in the game. --Smallhacker 04:19, 28 September 2011 (EDT)
 * You know, I think I remember that too, and I hardly know anything about MK64. I seriously doubt there's any remain, though, but it's worth a shot. {EspyoT} 06:00, 28 September 2011 (EDT)

Unheard Portion Of The Title Screen Music
Should it be noted that a few seconds the title screen theme are usually unheard because the attract demo ends a few seconds earlier than the music, and the music fades out? The music can be heard by enabling the debug menu and waiting or by using cartridge-tilting to crash the game at the title screen. --JetForceGemini64 08:44, 19 April 2012 (EDT)
 * Yeah! After all, it's unused. But... well, not doubting or insulting you or anything, but, have you tried pressing a few buttons on the title screen so that the demo mode is delayed? {EspyoT} 12:39, 19 April 2012 (EDT)
 * The demo mode doesn't delay. I tried. -- Sheeza 12:43, 19 April 2012 (EDT)


 * To hear it just enable the debug menu ,use the code and press the GS button or F9 at the title screen. With the debug menu enabled, the game doesn't go into the demo and the entire song plays. --JetForceGemini64 20:11, 20 April 2012 (EDT)

Bug?
"Due to a binary counter bug, the first segment repeats 64 times (for 53 minutes!) before the second segment ever has a chance to play."

Are we sure this is a bug? I presume someone examined the code, but I haven't seen any of the research.

Also need to confirm if those "unused item boxes" are just the used ones doing their float-up-from-the-bottom animation. ⬡ 03:58, 14 June 2012 (EDT)

Mario Party voices?
They didn't reuse Mario Party's voices! MP's voices came from the JP release! Also shouldn't we mention that Mario Kart: Super Circuit used it? Dr.Nick
