Between Consoles

 * For obvious reasons, the TechEruo Hotline, Passwords and Transfer Arcade Data are not available on the arcade version.
 * The Multi-Man race is also missing from single cabinets.
 * The trophies in the Arcade version are printed on the "Racer's Card" (a save card for the arcade version meant for saving stats), unlike the console versions, where it's on-screen.
 * Speaking of the Racer's Card, it can vary from arcade to arcade, with the most notable different ones being the Mickey Mouse's Pizza Funhouse, Chuck E. Cheese's and the infamous 10th anniversary re-release card.
 * Most versions have a Blue title screen, but the NES and SEGA Master System versions have a black title screen, due to most games on the respective consoles having black title screens instead of blue ones.
 * The "Dom Casual" font on the selection options for the non-Arcade/DOS versions has been replaced with an 8-bit font.
 * In the arcade version, the races are presented in letterboxed widescreen (1:78:1), but for every other port, the races are in the console's normal aspect ratio (mainly 4:3).
