Title: I am extremely excited for excite bike remake
Post by: strongbad on October 28, 2009, 09:39:03 AM
Excite Bike was one of my favorite NES games ever and because of that I love games like Trials HD. This remake will be so awesome omg online multiplayer and a track editor where you can save your tracks omg

I agree with you for the sake of nostalgia, but tilting your bike will be much easier when it's not 8-bit.

ALSO MULTIPLAYER

Just letting you, you're going to be disappointed, Because it's a Wii game, that's what Wii games do.

No, because it's Excite Bike with multiplayer.

Love it aside from three things:
No global leaderboards
No single player racing with no AI
AI on multiplayer tracks

Aside from these complaints the game is perfect and just how I hoped it to be. Getting an S time is the perfect difficulty level (god it's hard enough on the bronze tracks, let alone the platinum tracks).

But yeah I would recommend it for 1000 points if you enjoyed the original excite bike.

It's actually extremely fun, and you unlock special colors that you wouldn't get otherwise for doing friend races.
More people should get it though, since 4 person races are the most fun.

Yeah it's actually really fun online. I just broke the 400 point mark (you get 5 points if you get 1st, 3 for 2nd, 2 for 3rd, and 1 for 4th)
I play it too much already

For what it's worth, I think that it's definitely worth 1000 points, and I'm glad that Nintendo didn't push for 1500. The multiplayer is extremely well done. Say that you're in a game with four people and one drops out. Then one person could join the game while you're in race and would wait for you to finish. Then you start the next race with four people. It's awesome and I've been in the same group with the same people for over an hour in a few occasions.

BUT THERE ARE STUFF THAT YOU CAN ONLY UNLOCK FROM FRIEND RACES AHH
