Apparently there’s a dedicated online Wimmfi group for this game that hosts races every so often. The music of this game is genuinely my favorite part of it. it’s so.. different and cool, with seemingly random time signature changes that actually make the songs better somehow, and futuristic instruments and stuff

Bro I’m so glad you talked about this game! The only reason why I played this game was because I played the first title, called excite trucks! You’re 100% right! Don’t let the box art fool anyone! This is a tremendously fun game! I haven’t played it in years since when it came out in 2009, but man this is crazy awesome fun game! I was so hoping for them to make a 3rd after this, but they never did. I truly wish Nintendo would go back to making more racing games like this!!! This was a true gem of a game! 💎 🎮🙌🏻

The very first time I knew this game existed was seeing this game at walmart with a wii wheel bonus. The cover alone was enough to make me want this game and this game is one of the best games I ever played. And it's one of my most favorites. Actually, I just 10 minutes ago decided to see what any excitebots speed running there is. Because I never been a speed runner but youtube recommends videos of it all the time. And excitebots is probably the only game I would ever bother with for speed running.

I love this game. I struggle with the controls a little ( motion & gyro controls in general tend to feel awkward & unintuitive to me ) but it's a marked improvement over Excite Truck. And omg the soundtrack is amazing ( as tends to be the case with Nintendo's IPs )...it's such a crime that not one song from it has been used in Smash yet the jungle theme from DKC gets like a dozen remixes... oh, and Excitebots is actually the 6th game out of 7 so far in the Excite franchise.... Excitebike Vs Excitebike Excitebike: Mario Battle Stadium ( Japan only Satellaview game ) Excitebike 64 Excite Truck Excitebots: Trick Racing Excitebike World Rally

I fell like ExciteBots is the type of game that would work really well as a remake or re-release, It's the most "Nintendo" racing game I can think of so it might pique the interest of those who already own a switch and sell a few systems for the few people who enjoyed ExciteBots that much but don't own a Switch. Probably not gonna happen though.
