Excitebike (Japanese: エキサイトバイク, Ekisaitobaiku) was a game for the NES. It was a motorcycle racing game and is the first game in the Excitebike series. The game had three sequels: Excitebike 64, Excite Truck and Excitebots: Trick Racing. Excitebike was rereleased for the e-Reader, a Game Boy Advance accessory, in 2002. In 2004, it was rereleased again for the GBA in an actual cartridge as part of the Classic NES Series.

Super Smash Bros. series

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Excitebike is an obtainable trophy. In addition, it is rumored that, along with Balloon Fighter, "Excitebiker" was going to be a playable character, to represent the NES era of games. However, that position eventually went to the Ice Climbers.

The Excitebiker appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as an Assist Trophy. He, along with many other Excitebikers that appear, have a 2-D pixelated appearance.
