The PSP version consists of three modes: exhibition, quickplay, and a career mode. The career mode consists of race and trick events.[1] Career mode has different levels of difficulty as well, which adds more challenge to the game. The Wii version likewise has many of the same modes, including career mode and bases most of the game around it.[3]
