I have played this game Wave Race 64 and it was the best racing game I've ever played I like how you can adjust your top speed, acceleration and grip. Though the courses can get harder as you need to make sure you zigzag the red and blue floats but once you get the hang of steering and performing water jumps you can get way ahead of the 3 rivals. The announcer can be distracting as he talks alot but if you can ignore him you can win the game.
You have to race Sunny Beach, Sunset Bay, Drake Lake, Marine Fortress, Port Blue, Twilight City, Glacier Coast, Southern Island. But the best part of this game is the synthesizer Jazz music which is the best Nintendo 64 soundtrack of all time. This is my favorite Jet Ski racing game of all time. I highly recommend you track down a copy of Wave Race 64 and play it. You'll have so much fun unless the game is too intense for you but overall, it is fun once you master it. This game should've won the best video game of all time award. It is a masterpiece that can be replayed over and over and is more fun with multiplayer.
