What people seam to be forgetting is that this is the first batch of DS games, the graphical quality will get better over time when developers learn tricks and how to work with the units strengths.
On the N64 games about the launch included the awful Clayfighter 33 but later on we had graphical greats like OoT. Ok maybe not fair to compare those two but you can hopefully see my point.
I know the PSP will have better graphics but for me the gameplay matters more than what the game looks like, i still regularly play Tetris and that is about as basic as it comes.

IGN Review is better
7.0 Presentation
So we get a five year old, two generations-behind racing game for DS. At least the developers offer a lot of play that use the DS' functions.
8.0 Graphics
What looked great 5 years ago looks pretty good in handheld form. Fast and smooth 3D engine that's not quite as techincally impressive as its competition.
8.0 Sound
All of the N64's soundtrack is here. Even the hidden old-school stuff.
7.5 Gameplay
Very solid racing that's heavy on the drifting...something that the DS' control structure isn't immediately tailored to handle. It's a learning curve, but it's a lot of fun once you get a grasp.
8.0 Lasting Appeal
The multiplayer focus is excellent and sets a good example for others to follow. The single player is tough-as-balls and will take a good long while to get everything.
7.5 OVERALL:
(out of 10 / not an average)
They point out the game has 6 player wireless racing with only 1 Game Card needed!
