Mario Kart 64 cheats...

***Heroine of the Dragon*** · 12-03-2002, 02:05 AM

Do you use any of the cheats in this game? If so which ones?

12-03-2002, 02:35 AM

My favorite MK64 cheat is The Rainbow Road shortcut. Works best with 150cc, at the start speed up and jump over the railing. Then comes my favorite part, you either make it to the other road and now halfway finished & ahead of everybody else, or you plummet into space screaming with no way of catching up to everybody else.

I like to blackmail my human opponents with Lightning Bolts on Wario Stadium, DK's Jungle Parkway, and other levels with jumps.

same for Ghosts, I wait for ol Mr. Last Place to get a lightning bolt for me to steal.

the Rainbow Road shortcut is exceptionally risky AND cheap, but the payoff is grand.

I, at times, try the Royal Raceway shortcut on the jump. it's not worth it most of the time.

Cool! I've tried them... how many cheats do you know of? :F

How do you do the Royal Raceway shortcut?

BTW i LOVE using the Rainbow Road shortcut because of its cheapness EHEHEHEH.

Bowser314 · 12-04-2002, 04:22 PM

the Royal Raceway "shortcut" is very difficult. If you miss, you're screwed, and even if you make it, there's not much payoff. Definitely do this on Lap One if you want to use it to get ahead.

When you're about to go hit the second zipper on the jump, turn and power slide to the left toward the finish line. if you time this correctly, you should go off the jump and hit the cliff near the item boxes, and be put next to the item boxes when brought back onto land by Lakitu.

Wario Stadium Shortcut
When you start the course you can Power slide to the top of the first hill and jump over it. You will be done with about half of the course.

Anyone tried it?

^^ Heh, that trick is fun.

Bowser314 · 12-06-2002, 02:00 AM

that's only HALF of the shortcut. if you time it right, you can jump the wall AGAIN for a seven second lap, and finish the entire course in 22 seconds!

^ cool

Everyone knows the Koopa Troopa beach shortcut, right?

In Kalimari Desert, there is some kind of shortcut with the train tunnel...

ToadsTwin · 12-07-2002, 09:01 PM

The Kalimari cut I can't get. The KTB cut and the Wario cut I've gotten the hang of. A Royal Raceway cut I've only touched once.

Say, have you guys ever tried this?

After a jump at Frappe Snowland (if by the impossible chance you land short, you'll be in the lake and Lakitu will fish you out), you can go over to the left. Once you get to the peak of a hill, you're stick. Lakitu will fish you out. If done correctly, you will be set down in the lake and stuck there until you restart/quit or press reset on your 64. I've done it (I think) 3 times, and I've always stopped just as Lakitu is about to drop the character (once Wario, once Mario, the other time I don't know) into the lake because...I'm chicken.

ok ppl listen up, the shortcut in Kalimari desert is this:
when you drive around and you get to the second crossing of the tracks, take a left along the tracks towards the tunnel, you can get through the tunnel but the train always gets you.... solution? use a Star! works every time if you have one,
ps i dont think you can do it on the last lap, not sure........

12-10-2002, 10:26 AM

oh yea, btw, theres a great shortcut in yoshi's valley.
U know when all the different tracks meet up again u have to go wwwwaaaaaayyyy round a big bend till you get to the giant egg?
well, if, as soon as all the tracks become one, you do a power slide, you can hop the gap and get straight to the big egg. Watch tho cos you need to time it right and do it where the gap between the two tracks is shortest.
If u do it right tho, ur mates'll be like "wow"
n u'll be like "who da man?" [img]smile.gif[/img]

***Heroine of the Dragon*** · 12-10-2002, 09:28 PM

^Cool, that cheat!!! I once managed it by accident and have done it quite a few times since. Timing is crucial in most of the cheats!!

Anyone tried this one yet?
Jungle Parkway Shortcut
At the beginning go backwards into the tunnel. Then drive into the section where the wall and ceiling join. If done right, the cloud boy will pick you up out of a black and green pit and put you back in the tunnel right after the bridge. Now cross the finish line and you will be on your next lap...

12-11-2002, 04:49 AM

^Yea i remember the DK park trick but i never used it cos it ended up me n my friends all tryin to do the trick at the same time, altho its so hard, anyone drivin round the track normally would usually win!

12-11-2002, 05:43 AM

I try the Wario Stadium short cut all the time. It's way better than the Rainbow Road short cut (RR is such a long course that the opponents will be close to you when you get to the next lap, even though you took the short cut).

Wario Stadium is especially fun when several people know how to take the short cut. It really puts a lot of pressure on you.
