Listen now
Description
Released by Nintendo in 1984 for the NES, Excitebike - a high-speed race against time, where the only thing hotter than the other racer's skills is your bike's overheated engine. Jump ramps, avoid mud pits, and push through grassy terrain in-between. Just try to keep your bike from turning into a stationary bonfire that leaves you running back from the sidelines. If you ever wondered what it's like to be a motocross daredevil who constantly risks spontaneous combustion, here ya go. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
