“Get your friends together and grab your Wii Wheel (TM) accessories for action-packed raucous racing. ExciteBots: Trick Racing takes the big-air thrills and simple controls of Excite Truck (TM) and ramps up the fun with a non-stop barrage of funky challenges and mini-games performed at blinding speed. You won’t believe your eyes when you find yourself shooting goals, throwing pies and even playing poker in the middle of racing robotic animals and insects around off-road tracks. “
Link! Plus more detail and higher-resolution boxart!
Two pages from Nintendo Power showing off screens and describing the game more!
Five more screenshots!
I know everyone is going to be all over this game, saying it's kiddy, that it's going to suck, that it looks crappily made, and I just want to get out a pre-emptive "******** you" to those people, because they never played Excite Truck, and they never will, so they're missing out on a great game. Excitebots looks to take everything that was good about Excite Truck (the fast paced racing, the insane tricks, the ridiculous air and just add onto it. There are even more tricks you can perform, you can use projectiles (but Mario Kart sucks, right guys?), there's online play, the vehicles aren't just all boring looking trucks, there are flying machines, and there are mini-games that play out as you race, presumably giving you more points or boost, it uses the Excite Truck engine, yet the graphics look much better, and if all that sounds shitty to you then you either hate racing games or are lying because you know that if you play it someone will think less of you. Well ******** you.
And it comes out in April! Nintendo's sticking to their guns with the whole "announce-a-game-right-before-it-comes-out" thing.
