In the grand racing tradition of Excitebike, get ready for a big-air experience like no other as players rocket their trucks across dynamically changing terrain. Remember tilting your arms to try to make your character land a huge jump? That experience is finally a reality with Excite Truck, a wild, off-road race in which players hold the Wii Remote like an NES controller to control the truck. The 2 button is the accelerator, the 1 button is the brake, the + Control Pad is the turbo. Tilt the Wii Remote right and left like a steering wheel to steer. Once the truck goes airborne, tilt the Wii Remote every which way to line up perfect landings for turbo boosts. Pick up items on the courses to make the terrain deform in real time, turning innocent bumps into massive launch pads that affect not only the player's route, but that of his or her rivals. Players jump and bump their way to the highest score and highest finish. Less
Mario and friends once again jump into the seat of their go-kart machines for the first Wii installment of this popular franchise.

Pros The game is a ton of fun.
Cons Extremely short. Levels could have used some more diversity.
Recommended it? Yes

Excite Truck is the sequel to the 1985 classic Excitebike. Yeah, you're right, it is a lot different than the NES game. Heck, it's like saying that Madden NFL 2007 is the sequel to a little game that came out the same month and year as Excitebike by the name of Baseball. There is almost nothing... Read full review »

Pros Fun
Cons Conrolls take getting used to - try the tutorial first.
Recommended it? Yes

One of the first games we purchased for the Wii was Excite Truck, mainly because both my youngest son and I love racing games and he thought it looked neat.

Excite Truck is a good showcase for the new Wii Remote and makes it a bit more challenging for a racing game, but still loads of... Read full review »

Pros Nice aesthetics, good gameplay, great multiplayer, loads of variety...

Recommended it? Yes

Mario Kart WII is one of the Nintendo Wii's best-selling titles* and, well over a year after its release, still one of the games that generates most interest in the console.  Having enjoyed Mario Kart Super Circuit on the GBA, I was looking forward to this game and wasn't disappointed by it at...

Pros better selection of karts/bikes, lots of characters, online play, drifting returns
Cons Rainbow Road
Recommended it? Yes

I have a very love/hate relationship with Mario Kart Wii.  I love it because it's challenging, fun, and finally has online play.  I hate it because I'm competitive and Nintendo really figured out how to bring out the road rage in me.  I never played the original version on the Super...
