A snapshot of the 90s
Any guesses on what they could be playing?
I would have assumed Goldeneye, but that looks like the cartridge on the floor there.

Likely Mario Kart 64. Came out the same year as GoldenEye and they look too chill for an fps.
Dunno if your app put your reply on the wrong comment but the person you responded to used the same evidence you found to suggest a game other than Goldeneye
That's a good guess. They also look too casual for Mario Party, but too serious for something like Donkey Kong 64.
There's no memory expansion pack, so this is likely before Q4 '99.
Most likely true, no evidence of a fist fight yet.
I'm trying to figure out what the black strips are on the cartridge. Maybe it is taped together? I don't remember any games with that color pattern.
I don't remember any cartridge colored like that either. I bet it's tape from a rental store.
It's likely a fighting game, look at how some of them are going there hands over the right side. Classic arcade hand positions.
Diddy Kong Racing then?
Later that night, something strange happened. The controller in his hand shifted, becoming an odd device, and the next thing he knew, he was in the Digital World.
Becomes de facto leader of a gang of fellow abductees and definitely got paired with a fire type. The goggle-heads always do.
There once was a boy named Bananigans, Who dreamed of a cactus with gloves on its hands.
He’d wake every day so hopeful and chipper, Thinking one day a mailman might ship her.
But days turned to months, and months into years, His cactus with boxing gloves never appeared.
For life, as it happens, had a notion less grand, And a cactus with boxing gloves wasn't the plan.
Are you the one with the frosted tips and goggles The Picard Maneuver?!
I wish. I sadly never frosted my tips in the 90s.
But you had the goggles?!
Well, of course! They were standard issue in the 90s.
Do they serve any practical purpose as in you put them on before doing something craaaazy or you were just supposed to wear them on head?
In the 90s, everything was marketed as EXTREME, so you just had to be prepared.
I dont know why, but this came directly into my mind: https://redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=VI__EW_fPJs :D
Something with multiple control schemes, because two of them are using the analog stick and one is using the d-pad.
That's Gary. Don't mind him, his controller doesn't work.
Little bro Gary!
The guy with the goggles give me 1080 snowboarding vibes. But since they are into shooters, maybe turok
Edit: the guy in Front looks like he is using the d-pad. i found this list of games which use the D-Pad on Reddit
https://www.reddit.com/r/n64/comments/t6mdee/games_using_the_dpad/
Could rly be turok i guess :D
Could be WCW/NWo Revenge. A true classic.
As a young lad, I was blown away by the customization options. You could make damn near anyone, from any wrestling organization.
CHA BRUH
How did I know PM5K was going to be in this thread? Thanks for this.
It could be something weird like Conkers Bad Fur day multi-player. Though I agree with others it's most likely Mario Kart
The concentration of faded denim is blinding!
That's not a Mario Party/Mario Kart crowd. My guess would have been Goldeneye too. Next guess is one of the WWF/WCW/nWo games, at least one of them had a 4 player mode.
The best days of humanity. We'll never have a 90s era again and that's saddening.
Likely, either Mario Kart or Smash Bros
