I feel stupid for posting this, but is there anyone out there who knows the game very well and might be able to assist me on a couple of levels? I'd like to fully complete this game sometime this century.

Brian · 05-13-2003, 10:20 PM

I have it and I may be able to help you. What do you need help on.

pandora_spocks · 05-13-2003, 10:26 PM

Okay, my main problem is wall kicking. I have a horrible time trying to do that.

So far these are the levels that I'm having trouble with because of it.

Level 5 - Big Boo's Haunt

I need to get to star # 5 which is on Big Boo's Balcony, yet I can't get to the balcony b/c I can't wall kick up there. Anyway, I can do this with or without the wall kick?

Level 6 - Hazy Maze Cave

Yet, another freakin' wall kick. Not sure how to get up to the room where the falling rocks are. I can't seem to wall kick up on this one either.

Brian · 05-13-2003, 10:28 PM

Let's see if I can remember. I had trouble with it the first time but with practice I was able to do it. Try jumping straight towards the wall and press either A or B, I can't remember which.

I've been doing that, but have gotten no where.

On level 5 I've tried kicking off of all the walls even the bookshelf still can't get up. I hate this part..

Then I don't know what else to tell you. Try practicing it again and again. On level 5 you will have a lot more to worry about because after you beat the Big Boo, you have to do a long jump towards one side of the building and *carefully* walk towards the middle. Unfortunately, the camera angles are crappy and one slip and you have to start over.

I won't have to worry about that because I'll never get to it. Where's that flying cap when you need it? Oh well, thanks anyway.

Don't worry, it took me 7 months to beat it, but I quit inbetween, because it really started to annoy me...lol

Go to www.gamefaqs.com

Truth · 05-13-2003, 11:12 PM

Edit - Nevermind, they dont allow direct linking to FAQ's.. evil...

lol what does Raven have to do with Mario?

Anyway, I've searched through yahoo for walkthrough's I keep getting the same thing on every site. 'blah, blah, blah..wall kick yourself up onto the balcony..' then it talks about how you beat big boo again. Oh well, I have 64 stars right now and I'm try to get to 70 so I can go up those never ending stairs.

Sarah, yeah I love Mario Kart 64. I've beaten it so many times on each level lol. I really like the backwards level, but sometimes I forget which way I'm supposed to turn, hehe.

Cashodeen · 05-14-2003, 05:26 AM

pandora_spocks, have you successfully wall kicked ever? If not read on. If you know how to do them, skip down, down, down below to the bold writing.

I'll teach you wall kicks, but I do make a rotten teacher.

When you first are trying wall kicks, practice right outside the castle, on the wall with the front door (that way I can sorta describe things better): Okay, you're going to wall kick on a side with that door, but first go in a corner near the door. See those grey bricks on the ground, that are in lines? Count the lines and make Mario walk foward away from the wall while you count. Stop at 6. Now that is the area you want to prepare for your wall kick.

Okay, now back up past the 6th line so you are at about the start of that ramp/bridge thing. Run forward toward the wall with the door and when you see yourself getting to about the 6th line, press A. You're going to keep holding the joystick forward as well, so that you ram into the wall.

Once you see Mario crash into the wall, press A again and he should jump real high in the air. That's a wall kick! To make him go even further in the wall kick, move the joy stick in the direction Mario is jumping after you press A that second time.

*It's a little tricky, because the whole time you were pressing the joystick one way, you suddenly press it the opposite, because in the wall kick Mario is suddenly moving in the opposite direction. If you want, just worry about those A buttons when you are first trying the wall kick out. You only need to worry about the joystick when you want to start going further in the air.

Big Boo's Haunt
All right, you see the area up above that you need to go to, right? Well, across from it, is that ledge with the wood floor. That's the area you want to do your wall kick from. Since wall kicks make you go backwards, you will go backwards right up on that bolcony. It took me a few times to have enough distance to reach the balcony. What I did was, after I was doing the wall kick, I moved the joystick in the opposite direction I had it while I was running to the wall (because that makes you go further) AND THEN pressed B, so I slid onto the balcony. That should work for you too.

It just may take some practice to get good distance. And paying attention to what buttons to press and when to press them is annoying too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I haven't even gotten any star from level 6 yet (I've beaten the game, just not completed the game), because I hate the way that level looks. But if you have any more questions, this is a pretty awesome site:
