    I'm interested. I like robots more than I like trucks. I'll have to wait until I see some gameplay footage in action before I consider purchasing though.

    Full size image link makes it small. Click the first link and then the related headline for the full image, or try clicking the image here.

    The game looks like a bigger, better Excite Truck with online racing and more additions to enhance the racing aspect and add more tilting requirements.

    I think if they would have given us Excite Truck 2, then I would be happy.  I'll will probably pick up the game.  Looks fun.

    I'm kind of disappointed, but I'm still going to give this a shot when it comes out.

    Ugh, hate the way images and links are handled here. Edited all the posts, it should be better now...

    @JJOR64 it pretty much is Excite Truck 2, read the partial article :)

    NeoGaf has going bananas over this game since it was announced, and today they went even crazier. And now I believe them. This game looks exciting!

    I'm not really interested in this game. Where's the new F-Zero, Nintendo? The last one was released six years ago.

    The complaints I've heard from people have had to do with the style of the game (saying it's "kiddy," why do we even need this word?), when really, they're forgetting that the game still preserves the fundamentals that make the Excite games fun. I'm not bothered so much with the fact that your driving robotic insects/animals, it's still an Excite game.

    And I'll say it anyway: EXCITE!!

    Here is a couple of real screenshots: http://www.wiids.nl/article.php?id=29009
    I enjoyed ExciteTruck and found it to be a simple and fun racing game that I enjoyed with several friends who wouldn't pick up any other Racing game whatsoever.
    I hope this one will be fun too, and they have had a long time to develop it so I expect online, better controls and all that.

    Those look like scanned magazine pics to me, I knew they were available but didn't link them as that's illegal, not to mention immoral, so I just linked the (also real) images Nintendo Power offered itself.

    Excite Truck was awesome, so this shouldn't be any different.

    I would rather see Big Bots: Over the Road Racing.
