Overview

  • SpaghettiKart launched on June 20 on GitHub and requires players to load a legally obtained Mario Kart 64 ROM to run the port.
  • Harbour Masters fully reverse-engineered the original N64 code to create a clean PC version without incorporating any Nintendo copyrighted assets.
  • The port runs natively on Windows, Linux and even Switch hardware by leveraging DirectX, Metal and OpenGL rendering back ends.
  • As an ongoing project, users report rare crashes and missing original features that Harbour Masters plans to address in future updates.
  • Praised as a free modern alternative to Mario Kart World on Switch 2, SpaghettiKart remains publicly available without triggering legal action.
