** ''GP DX'' introduced auto-accelerate four years before the much more well-known ''VideoGame/MarioKart8 Deluxe'' did.

* SalvagedGameplayMechanic: Having a shield that is activated by drifting is an ''immense'' frustration-saver, something that has not been really implemented in the main games outside of the Super Horn in ''VideoGame/MarioKart8'', for when those pesky homing items come after you.

** ''Arcade GP DX'' features two ''VideoGame/PacMan''-themed tracks (PAC-MAN Stadium and [=NAMCO=] Circuit) which serve as homages to not only Pac-Man himself but also several of Namco's classic arcade titles such as ''VideoGame/{{Galaxian}}'', ''VideoGame/DigDug'', ''VideoGame/{{Mappy}}'', and ''VideoGame/TheTowerOfDruaga''.

** The first ''Arcade GP'' locks your character choice to your card, meaning that if you want to play with another character, you'll either have to play without a card or use a different one. ''Arcade GP 2'' and following games no longer tie character to card, letting you pick any character every time you start a new session.
