It was a fairly original motorcross racer with simplistic graphics and controls, but it had a track editor and it really stuck with everyone who had played it. Now a days we gamers take some of things that game brought to the table for granted. For the Wii launch Nintendo has decided to release a spirtual successor, and in the racing tradition of Excitebike, get ready for an exciting big-air racing experience with Excite Truck. You'll rocket your two-ton truck across dynamically changing terrain in a nitrous-injected, high-flying racer for speed junkies. Excite Truck is a launch title built to really show the Wii Remote controller's versatility, players tilt the controller on its side to turn it into a wireless steering wheel. What better way to kick off a system launch then to try and blend some old with a lot of new." 82/100
