Christmas Eve, 1997. I got to open my brand new Nintendo 64, and this is the game that I got with it. To this day it’s one of my all time favorite video games and I can watch people speedrun it all day!
Fantastic race. I've always been super-impressed by Obiyo's skill at this game especially considering he puts himself at a disadvantage by leaving the music on.
This was incredible to watch, I love this game and i love a good race, the way they traded spots so often made for such an enjoyable watch, good games!
Great to see 3 of my favorite streamers and good friends duke it out live on the GDQ stage! If anyone is looking to join this community, everyone in it is so nice and always willing to help out new runners!
I may be several months late to the party, but I'm glad I got around to watching. I don't think I've ever seen a race this close! I wonder if it would be possible to have the runners race each other on the same console at an in-person GDQ, and how that would affect the lag situation...
I've only ever played the DS remake, and... wow, the original version is waaay different. Just one example, in DS, the Spaceport Alpha track is an _enclosed_ space station, while in 64 it's apparently open (and... was apparently playing the wrong music?)
Are DKR races normally this close? I don't think there was ever more than five seconds difference between first and last place. Plus the runners kept trading the lead back and forth.

Ha, exact same story with me!

Watching all three runners hit the Windmill Planes oob first shot while running at identical times was SO SATISFYING.
This was a really good race, I'm glad I caught it live.

I could immediately tell the speed difference with them tapping accelerate compared to just holding it.
They nroom'n
Did anybody grow up with the DS version, but didn't remember the opening cutscene?
