Evan Shamoon reviewed the Dreamcast version of the game for Next Generation, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "Despite one frustrating design decision, this is a beautifully presented and eminently likable game – and easily the best kart racer on Dreamcast."[23]

The Dreamcast version was met with positive reviews upon release while the PlayStation 2 version received mixed reviews. GameRankings and Metacritic gave it a score of 77.77% and 83 out of 100 for the Dreamcast version,[4][6] and 62.63% and 62 out of 100 for the PlayStation 2 version.[5][7]
