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

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 »

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 »

I used the original Wii Fit daily and was excited to get the new Wii Fit plus. It has games that are fun for the whole family and you don't realize you are working out playing them such as a snowball fight game and a new balancing game. There are new yoga positons and exercises plus a new step... Read full review »
