Play Modes
- Free Play mode- In Free Play mode the player can freely choose opponents, rules and options.
- Challenge mode- Win by fulfilling a given set of conditions with a given set of opponents. Initially easy, normal and hard "courses" are available. Completing these unlocks characters and an expert course.
- Ranking mode- The character chosen starts at rank 20. He/she plays against the other characters to ascend and possibly become rank 1 (the top 3 opponents are Petey Piranha, Bowser, and Toadsworth in ascending order). Note that the ranking system works by winning points from beating other players; thus the top opponents do not need to be unlocked in order to ascend above them.
- Local multiplayer- A game for multiple players (up to 4), all within range of the DS wireless radio.
- Online multiplayer (2006 edition only) - Like online multiplayer for other DS games, with the same Friend Code system. Voice chat is available.

“Rick: You played it for her, you can play it for me.
Sam: Well, I don’t think I can remember it.

Worked with a dim and undetermined sense
Of unknown modes of being; o’er my thoughts
There hung a darkness, call it solitude
Or blank desertion.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
