Excitebike is the brand of eponymous motorcycle appearing in the NES game Excitebike, and Excitebike 64. It has made cameo appearances in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Brawl.
Vehicle description
Excitebikes are, for the most part, typical motorcycles that are used in Excitebike racing competitions. As they are used for sport, they have very high specifications and can perform high-profile maneuvers such as launching high in the sky off ramps. Each excitebike is equipped with a turbo-boosting system which allows it to speed up to very high speeds, but puts a strain on the overheating engine if used for extended periods of time. On each racetrack are icons that instantly cool down your engine if you ride over them, though.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
The Excitebike makes a minor cameo in this game:
As a trophy
Excitebike features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various Single-player Regular Matches. It reads as follows:
- Excitebike
- This top-of-the-line motocross motorcycle can accelerate like crazy with its turbo, but this also causes the temperature gauge to rise rapidly; if used too often, the bike will overheat. You can cool your hot bike down by running over special icons scattered across the track. The turbo and ramps let you pull insane airs. (Excitebike 10/85)
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
The Excitebikes have a more tangible role in this game than in the previous one:
As an Assist Trophy
Hordes of Excitebike racers is an Assist Trophy helper in Brawl. It appears as multiple Excitebike racers, all in their original sprite forms, who race around the stage, and damage players. All the different original sprites from the game appear to race across the field, along with the main character from the game Excitebike.
Trophy Description
High-performance motocross bikes that handle massive jumps with ease. Using turbo on these beauties gives a speed boost but also causes the engine's internal temperature to rise. Overuse turbo, and the bikes overheat and shut down. The engines can be cooled by running over certain marks on the track. Excitebikes cap off every race with an undeniably awesome wheelie.
