The game received average reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. Chris Kramer of NextGen said that the game "still lacks energy, and even Nintendo's three-year old [sic] 1080° Snowboarding is a better game." In Japan, where the game was ported and published by UEP Systems on March 9, 2000, Famitsu gave it a score of 28 out of 40.
