So yeah, come on Nintendo. Where's the sequel? Unless this IS the sequel! Dun, Dun, DA!!! It also had custom soundtracks, which is always cool in a racing game.

You had to nearly miss trees and get sweet air and things like that in addition to placing well to win. i really liked the way that game was set up because it wasn’t just about getting first.

I would love to see the Big N make this one a Players Choice and drop it to $20. I think the next game should go the Motorstorm route and have dirt bikes and trucks flying through the air doing tricks. I thought Excite Truck never got the credit it was due.

I think it was all because of lack of time to optimize it though. The launch game rush, if you will. One of the biggest disappointments with Excite Truck was it was only 2 player instead of 4.

It would be a chance to do online right and make a hardcore, though still arcady, racing game. Even if they have to cut some things (the number of cars, etc.), they can still make a great racing game. Look at Wipeout HD. It's a $20 download game with only 8 tracks, and it's made it's way to being my favorite racer. I wouldn't mind an Excite Truck 2, either. The first one was fun, but had a lot of room for improvement. A new F-Zero game could really be a show piece for the Wii if done correctly.
