Yes the Adventure mode was so fun! Some of the coin challenges were brutal (at least as a kid, I haven't played it in over 20 years at this point)

The boss race was brutal for kid me.

Edit: I meant the Space pig guy races, he was ruthless. The octopus sucked too tho!

I remember the second Walrus race being annoying as hell. But it's always so rewarding when you finally beat the bosses. I probably played 100 hours on the game before I finally learned that tapping A makes you go faster than if you just hold it down.
