The modes in this game are essentially the same as the arcade version with a few extras. Cars will understeer or oversteer depending on the car type.Īs you win or lose races, you will obtain trading cards which either unlock various goodies such as sound tests for the characters, or gain parts to upgrade your car with. A skillful use of shifting is needed to conquer the much tougher courses in the game. There are multiple races on the same track, however they are all one on one. The gameplay is much like an arcade racer where you are able to select a track and race on it. This game also features the ability to save replays. Unlike the PS2 Initial D: Special Stage, this version of Initial D has a multiplayer function for wireless head to head battles.

The game runs at 30 FPS with a slight downgrade of the graphics, however it remains true to the arcade game. These trading cards range from character profiles, unlockables such as bonus music, or parts to upgrade or customize your car. Trading cards are acquired whenever a race is finished, regardless of the outcome (except when the player quits). The most significant one is the point system which has been replaced with a trading card based system. This game is a port of Initial D Arcade Stage 3 with some features that separate it from its arcade counterpart.
