* UpToEleven: The Excite Bots official site says the turtle did this to its turbo boosters to make up for its weight.
* VideoGame3DLeap: Excite Bike 64 was a total overhaul. The cool down spots and stacking ramps gave way to fairly more realistic track designs, the lanes vanished, and perspective shifted to behind. Excite Bike has since moved closer to its traditional game play. Excite Truck and Excite Bots, resemble Excite Bike 64, but have different vehicle controls and add support items, stage hazards, collectibles and ScoringPoints.

''Excitebots: Trick Racing'' is the fifth game in the series. It is a sequel to Excite Truck. As the name implies, the trucks have been replaced with cute, animal-shaped robots on wheels such as frogs, ladybugs, and turtles that each have special abilities. It also incorporates the leg and arm motions of each robot into the use of the Wii remote.
