ExciteBots: Trick Racing

ExciteBots: Trick RacingExciteBots: Trick Racing from: Nintendo
Bots are an assortment of mechanical insects, amphibians, and mammals that transform throughout the race, and each has its own specialty. Whether you're a bat or a frog, it changes the racing dynamics because your choice will determine whether you can glide or stand up on your hind legs and run. If this sounds weird, well, that's because it is. You'll race through various locales around the world, from the beautiful mountainous regions in Canada to the sun-kissed desert landscape in Egypt.
The goal of each race is to collect as many stars as possible (coming in first helps too), and you do so by executing fancy tricks, running into other high-speed bots, or collecting special items along the way.
Racing is always better with live opponents, so the good news is that online play is available through Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connection, with up to six players and their transforming bots. The not-so-great news is that offline play is still limited to two players and you must first complete the training races before you can play with a friend.
