Wave Race Review by 1up.com

Wave Race 64 epitomizes why the N64 was ultimately such a disappointment. With the likes of this superlative jet-ski racer following closely on the heels of Super Mario 64, how could we not expect great things to come in the following years? Alas, if only the N64 library had been up to this level. Featuring exceptional water physics that make each track its own unique challenge, Wave Race still plays well. Besides the blocky character models and blurry crowd cutouts, it even retains quite a bit of visual appeal -- Virtual Console's standard up-rezzing of N64 games makes the water look as good as it "feels." And the way most of the tracks evolve over the course of each race makes for an N64 game that looks and plays better than most everything that came after it.
