In this list there's a pretty good story about an N64 cartdrige and the effects of the full weight of a Hummer 2 on it.

This might have been the first racing game I've ever played, and if it wasn't then it was something else on the first night I got an N64.
I was once the top contributor to Diddy Kong Racing's Giant Bomb Wiki Page. - Ken Ward 1993-2013 If Diddy Kong Racing wasn't the first racing game I played on the N64, then it was the racing game I played the most on the N64.
If George Lucas only threw podracing into Episode I so they could sell this game, then fine, because it was worth it. This game holds up all these years later. Also, shout-out to the GBC version of the game. Also, double-shout-out to the SEGA Arcade version of the game.
I never exactly tried to win this game, and in fact me and my brother spent most of our time playing this game by crashing two stock cars, head-on style. One day, when I was dumb and 18, I let a friend drive over a Nascar 2000 cartdrige with his Hummer. The chip still worked and you could still play it, but the plastic casing was blown to bits.
This game was just a rental for me, but still, I played it so it goes on this list.
I rented this game. I thought it was shit.
I think I had nightmares about this game, so I didn't play it for like, the last 3 days of my rental. I'd be interested in finding a copy and seeing what made me so unsettled about it.
All I can remember about this game is that there are pennys in the cars and I might be wrong about that.
I know I rented this game, but all I can think about is how it was pretty much not Hot Wheels at all, and the 7 to 8 year old me was probably pretty bummed by that. Also, totes the N64 version.
But while I'm here, I'll jump consoles for a bit to talk about how THIS is a real Hot Wheels game. Like. Orange tracks in living rooms and all. Catchy music, diverse cars and most importantly, it's frickin' hotwheels. Miniature car racing on the GBC.
