Waverace on the n64, is one of the most overrated games ever. And I rarely call out a game for being overrated.
But its terrible. I don't know why anyone liked/still likes that game.

Strange statement comming from a Sega fan since Wave Race (& F-Zero) is the closest a Nintendo racer came to a old-school Sega racing game. ;)
Infact, Sega themselves copied Wave Race with their Wave Runner, which was a rare sight. (usually it was Nintendo copying Sega when it came to racing games)
It's strange you can't see why the series is still regarded highly since not only it was a technical marvel back then, it also attempted something not yet seen before in racing games - realistic wave simulation.
And it was generally a well-made and fun game with high difficulty on higher levels.
But you are right that is was released at the right time at the right place.
Today, people would unlikey pay a full price for such a game.
Still, I think something could be attempted in the direction of reviving the franchise anyway.
