Attachment 1110




Nintendo of America has announced that the 3D classic Excitebike is going to be free for Nintendo 3DS owners to download via the Nintendo 3DS eShop. The game will be pretty much an enhanced port of the NES classic, but of course it’s going to be playable in 3D. The new addition to the game is the track editor which will allow players to save up to 32 tracks, something the NES version couldn’t offer due to a lack of battery backup.
