It is the year 2112 and Earth has been taken over by evil forces. As a lone motorcycle warrior, you must battle the invaders while racing from sector to sector in search of survivors. You are Earth’s last hope. You are Mach Rider!
In the main Fighting Course mode, race through 10 levels of winding highway and take out the enemies using machine guns or blocking manoeuvres. In Endurance Mode, pit your survival skills against the clock, or try Solo Course for an enemy-free ride.
Mach Rider also includes a Design mode, enabling you to design your own courses. In this Virtual Console version you can also save your courses, which was not possible in the original NES version.

Looks dull, but a proper sequel on the Wii would be awesome.

I will get this if I had a lot of extra points.
I bought this game for the NES many years ago and I had fun with it. I sometimes dust off the NES and play a few games, but I rarely play this one.
My only "good" reason to get this game is so I can use a control stick other than a pad. Which is not a very good reason but it will make things easier at some parts.
I'll think about it...

Bass X, I'm right behind you
. I got this game like 9 years ago... It was hard! But... weird
. I kinda liked it though...
When I saw how they transformed ExciteBike into ExciteTruck, I can think that everything is possible now!

Wow. In the video, it looks like enemy bikes come up from behind you and simply destroy you with no warning.

At least it's better than Sega Mega Drive's 'Super Hang-On'. THAT was a snooze session.

If you played Super Smash Bros. Melee, which I'm guessing you did, then its the alternate song played when you select the "Big Blue" level.

2 stars seems a bit low IMO. This game is alot of fun when you have a couple of people around to create a course and then play it to see who lasts the longest.

Downloaded this just for the music, but actually really enjoying it!
Takes up a lot of memory tho...

I borrowed this game from a friend back in the day and just found it very mediocre. The music is cool, but after awhile the game play just gets stale.
