Race Driver: Create and Race review at IGN.

"It can usually be attributed to smaller budgets for handheld productions: unless it's a game produced by the Mighty Nintendo, Nintendo DS games generally don't get nearly the same development attention as console products tend to. Take, for example, racing games. The system's got plenty of them, including the outstanding Mario Kart DS, but on a third-party level most are pale shadows to their console partners; most companies aren't really willing to take the risk on an original IP anyway, instead "porting" to the current generation of whatever racing game they're shipping on console."
