Tons of new details have been revealed about the WiiWare revival of an NES favorite.  Just revealed earlier this week on the Wii's Nintendo Channel, Excitebike: World Rally will feature the same side scrolling racing action you remember from the original.  Additionally, by hitting the A button, you can change to a 2.5 view, giving you a peak at what's ahead on the course.


The game will also follow the ranking system of Monster Games' other titles, Excitebots and Excite Truck, where S is the best, and A or B will let you proceed to the next race.  You'll face in courses from the USA to Japan (get it, World Rally?) and you can even create your own courses.


Best of all, the game offers Wi-Fi, so you'll be able to battle against your friends and strangers.
