Best Mario Kart 64 Cups

The Top Ten
1 Special Cup

This Cup is pretty much the best in the game, despite some... I mean one problem. DK's Jungle Parkway is a very good looking track, jumping over the river is awesome, and I like little details like getting hit by rocks that are thrown by monkeys or something like that, when you are in the grass. Yoshi Valley is one of the best tracks in the game, and the series with its amazing gimmick of haivng many path to choose, and I always wondered why this concept was never brought back in any Mario Kart games. Banshee Boardwalk has an amaizng ambiance, and like the bats that comes out of nowhere, Sadly, this rainbow road is the worst in the series, because of how much nothing there is. At least there is some chomps that bites the road, which prevents this track to be the worst in the game. Not to mention the music, which is a bit overrated in my opinion, but is stilll great.

2 Mushroom Cup

This mushroom cup is actually great, and was very close to be my favorite cup in the game. This cup starts pretty bad though. Luigi Raceway is really empty, and Moo Moo Farm only has monty moles at the side of the track (yet people still prefer it over Moo Moo Meadows for some reasons). The two other tracks though are amazing. Kalimari Desert is pretty empty, so I wonder why I like it... Oh yeah! It has a train that can block your path, which is probably one of the best obstacles in Mario Kart. As for Koopa Troopa Beach this is my favorite track in the game. Water that rise and lowers, which can reveal some hidden path, there is a stone shape like a koopa that is cool looking, and a rock shaped like a shell that you can jump over, and it has one of the best shortcut in Mario Kart history.

3 Star Cup

Star Cups most often are the best cups, or at least the majority of Star Cups are really enjoyable cups. This one? Not so much. Wario Stadium is alright but it's so unbelievably long that it makes the races boring. Sherbet Land is really bad and Royal Raceway is just another circuit (although slightly better due to Peach's Castle). This cup is ended by the best track in the game though, Bowser's Castle, which is my favourite BC course there is because of the huge adventure the course is. But unfortunately that couldn't save the rest of the cup.

4 Flower Cup

I'm sorry, but Flower Cup isn't that good in that game. Toad's Turnpike is one of the most overrated tracks in Mario Kart History, because of the number of people that say things like ice tracks being trash because it's frustrating to race on, but then say that Toad Turnpike is good, even though it's probably the hardest track in Mario Kart History, because it's challenging, which doesn't make any sense in my opinion. Other than that, it's just a track with cars on it, which I'm sorry to say it, is pretty boring. The remake is much better, because they added things to it (I would also argue that the only reason why the remake is easier is because the controls are much better, but that's another story). As for the others, Frappe Snowland is cool thanks to the snowmans which are very interesting to avoid. On paper a Chocolate Mountain seems interesting, but Choco Mountain looks very depressing for a mountain made of chocolate, and is very empty outside of the chocolate chunks that fall off. It's not bad though. Mario Raceway is decent with the shortcuts there are, the cool look it has, and I like the pipe tunnel quite a bit.
