MotoHeroz Races to North America on 15th September
Posted by James Newton
Points at the ready
RedLynx's WiiWare racing-platform lovechild MotoHeroz will finally make it to the podium next week, with a confirmed North American and European release date of 15th September.
It'll set you back a pretty penny though, costing 1500 Wii Points, putting it amongst the most expensive games on the service. As our exclusive Feature: The Game Modes of MotoHeroz explains, that money grabs you brand new online time trials every day as well as friend-based leaderboards and more.
Will you be shelling out the necessary Nintendo Points to get behind the wheel of MotoHeroz?
Thanks to everyone who sent this in.

Ewwww...1500 Points is just a smidge steep for me. I was planning on buying this on day one but now I think waiting on a review is in order.

I am so looking forward to this game. The price seems fair to me for what I've seen so far. Would prefer playing this on my 3DS though.

Thanks, but no thanks. Will buy one N64-VC plus Escape Vector instead. Give my regards to RedLynx, they blew it.

If they reduce the price in Europe to account for the huge gap in releases then I'll get it. If not then Byebye.

Despite the high price tag, I'll probably buy this because Redlynx's games are usually awesome

Wow, 1500 points? I've looked forward to this game, but that is a steep price to pay. I sure hope it gets a great review, and then I'll consider it.

Points at the ready huh? Not until I see a review they're not.
When was the last time we had a must have Wiiware game?
I honestly don't recall. At 1500 points this better be amazing.

1500 points is £13.50 if bought online. Both EU and NA get it the same day?. That is fantastic news, I hope Nintendo starts doing more same day worldwide releases. Just like the Xbox 360 now. If it had a demo i would of probably got it. Wait for a few reviews first. The video looks good. WiiWare is back with a bang.

$15 really isn't even that bad, especially if it's as packed full of content as they say.. I've payed more for less interesting games
Edit - Granted I wasn't aware they were bad games, I'm just saying this one could be worth the $15 price point

The graphics look great. For me, it will all depend on the length of the game, and how the controls hold up.

lol @ everyone who thinks £13.50 is a high price.
This game already looked awesome to me, now that I've played Trials HD I'm even more confident about it. I can't wait!

Hmm, I could download Kyotoky first (I probably spelled it wrong). But then I have not enough points for Motoheroz!
I'll wait for the reviews. If it's really good I might buy this game first. If it's bad I skip it all together!

For a single 2000 point card, I could buy this and Escapevektor.
However, I was already planning to buy Fluidity on my next card. This better be a must-have on WiiWare for such a high price, as several other games with large amounts of content have sold for lower prices (ie Fluidity, Cave Story, Megaman 10, etc.)
