I can confirm that the track editor was insanely cool as a kid. I would make giant jumps followed by hairpin turns that loop back around, allowing you to jump straight to the later part of the course. Better yet, the other riders didn't have good enough AI to recognize the shortcuts, so my 6 year old brain could enjoying winning over and over
I built a lot of courses but I remember one where I made the game glitch. This map I made included a turn followed by lots of sharp W jumps. All of the AI racers have a sort of "path" they will follow during any race or map you make. In this particular course, the AI racer "Vicky Vickers" (I think) would make the turn as any other racer, would then take the jump and land on another one of the bumps. However, every single time she would land in this sharp face of the hill and then she would get shot up vertically into space. If I continued racing, by the next lap I would see her body and motorcycle land somewhere close to where she met her demise.
I remember I built many tracks but they took controller pack space, there were other games that also saved on this controller pack and made me furious I could only hold 1 track
Underrated game! This was all about learning how to handle the bike physics (you had a lot of control), once you got a good grip on this, the difficulty became trivial. Powersliding into corners is something I see missing here, that helps a lot. Great vid!
EB64 felt like a hidden gem at the time. The controls are tight and unique, similarly to what made Wave Race so special. The bike's steering and suspension felt well-tuned, elevating it above many other N64 racers.
This was one of my favorite N64 games when it came out and I easily put close to like 100 hours on it. I defended it passionately to the degree I remember one Game Informer writer out of three giving it a mediocre score and I e-mailed him to tell him his opinion was dumb…and he responded telling me to shut up. Ah to be 13 again. Anyway I’m glad you liked this one, I want to play it again one day and relive it.
As someone who spent hundreds of hours playing the original on NES , especially on the 31 in 1 , I cannot believe I was somehow not aware of the N64 edition.
This was one of my favorite games, played it so much with my dad as a kid. It's really cool that you're doing this series because you get to discover some real gems, the N64 is definitely a system full of them. Also, the Excitebike Soccer wasn't my idea, but you can bet when I saw Rocket League get big, I wasn't at all surprised because I remembered Excitebike Soccer being so fun, and it seemed like it had a lot of the same energy.
I’ve been so hyped for this playthrough. I spent many long nights packin dips and twistin grips in excitebike 64 when it came out. I’m 30 now and I swear to god the announcer yelling “Tricky Ricky Stern!!!” Still randomly pops in my head a couple times a year.
Those tracks on the Platinum cup look real cool. I never actually unlocked them as a kid. I always played Sarah Hills, and the announcer excitedly exclaiming that she 'wiped out' or 'ate dirt' are forever scarred on my psyche.
the tricks special track was my favorite part lol. the announcer would get all excited if you did a move called the KOBE. He would yell HE PULLED A KOBE! and it was the most points i think.
Having played two other ones later for this series, yeah this one handles so well in comparison. It's very hard to get used to, but it feels great once you're pretty good at it
@@Thabeast721 I haven't thought about Supercross 2000 since that horrific day I rented it over 20 years ago. I can only remember how terrible it was when compared to this game. Jeremy McGrath deserved so much better.
You just unlocked a memory. I'm obsessed with rocket league for 2 years now and always thought it was a demolition derby soccer game I used to play a lot with my friend back in the day, but it was excite bike 64
TRICKY RICKY STERN! Get's a soil sample! The announcer made this game legit. I cringed a little when you said you can clip other bikes by riding into their back tire. It's actually the inverse, but it's all good.
was looking for this comment, I've watched a couple of his video's now. He is quite slow to pick up on techniques and seems to miss obvious thing a lot lol
This game is real gem on N64, especially for racers. Lots of challenge and replay-ability in the single player and time trials. Also the multiplayer was great too and the track editor! Just a really fun game that had ALOT of content to it, especially for the year 2000
The berms allow you to take the turns at a higher speed because it's elevated in a way to help with the centrifugal force you experience taking a turn. If you notice on every interstate or highway they have these same berms, but at a much more gradual elevation
100% you should do a tier list of all the games from s to f when you finish would be a great finale episode for the series and love the content man keep going
Isn't he rating them all for enjoyability and difficulty? I'm sure the interested viewer can sort a list of numbers. Haha. That said, would be cool for thab to give his top 5 or 10 games when all is said and done.
I played it too. I remember liking the chibi fighters more than the adult ones. I think you got random drops to improve the fighters. It was fun from what I recall.
I found the rest of the bikers' quotes on GameFAQs: "Jumpin'" Jim Rivers : "It's not whether you win or lose, it's about how high you can fly!" "Tricky" Ricky Stern: "Better have extra film in your camera 'cause it's showtime, baby!" Sarah "Sugar" Hill: "They call me Sugar, but it's winning that's sweet!" Bobby "Big Dog" Malone: "The Big Dog's bike is badder that his bark, so I let my riding do the talkin'." Nigel "The Duke" York: "Technique, discipline and control are the key, and I have all three!" Vicky "The Vixen" Steele: "I hope no one gets in my way, 'cause if they do, they're gonna be eatin' my exhaust." Time to go lie down, I'm in a 90s coma from how tubular that was
Another Friday, another N64 game. Love the series Thab! Edit: This game looks surprisingly cool. Unsurprisingly, it's reminding me of Excite Truck for the Wii.
Hey Thab, sorry to be this guy, especially if someone else pointed it out, but the rise of dirt along the edge of the track in turns are called 'berms'. I only do it to make sure you aren't passing along inaccurate information or potentially sounding like a moron in casual conversation with dirt bike enthusiasts! 😄 But seriously, I'm so glad you're doing this challenge and putting so much into it for UA-cam! That's the only way I can see your content. Watching full VODs on Twitch is not the same as watching live; hence the appreciation for edited and scripted N64 content! Thanks dude
Two things: First, a general advice for racing games. When taking a turn, the outside edge is slower and easier to make, while the inside edge is faster and more difficult to make. This is because you can start turning earlier, having a greater effect on the overall turn than the increased distance moving from the inside edge to the outside edge. This is the opposite of what you said as a common-sense fact at one point. Naturally, sliding or drifting mechanics in a game can complicate this relationship. Second, it was hilarious how every time you mentioned how slippery the game feels to control, the camera shows you making an impossibly tight turn and accidentally moving at a right angle to the track. That level of irony in editing is why I like this series.
I played this game obsessively. I so badly wanted a dirt bike as a kid and this was a way of getting that fix without my parents spending thousands of dollars.
I had never heard of that one. I did play the original when i was a youngster, though - it's cool that they included the emulated NES version. I wonder why this didn't get much attention back in the day?
Damn, you didn't try the crazy Downhill mode. Also, you can knock off every racer by hitting their front wheel with your back wheel, just like in the old classic. There's nothing random about it. And finally, pushing down/left and down/right to steer your bike with butter smooth handling in sharp turns is something I was used to from Wave Race 64. All in all I love this game as one of the very best racers on the N64 with the big bonus of having so much fun and varied extra content. 10/10
I love the series Thab! I helped make an Unreal Tournament mod decades ago with a car soccer mode. A couple of the devs went on to work on Rocket League. I think there’s a monster truck game on the N64 with a similar mode. Pretty cool to see these old prototype implementations.
Oh wow, I didn't know you can disable the "drones"! I used to LOVE this game. Its mechanics are quite complex for a racing game and it feels great once you master the tracks. Those back to back bumps you mentioned, for example: It's fun if you aim your bike's angle just right and land on the back of a bump and almost like slingshot through the indentation. You can make pretty tracks in the editor with the user tile you get to shape yourself. It's pretty limited but as you said, back in the day, it was a lot more impressive. The extras are also pretty cool. The desert is indeed endless. You can forget about the fires and go in one direction forever. And yeah, the Rocket League precursor! We also spent a lot of time just exploring the outdoor maps and doing tricks. The construction level is super interesting for that. You can land on the red beams, for example. Great game.
Mondays I love that I go into work later, Tuesdays I get out early, Wednesdays are always a drag but that’s how it is. Thursday is pay day so heck yeah and Friday is “new Beating Every N64 Game” video day!
I'm so glad you figured out the turbo trick with Nigel (or Bobby) lol, I always had turbo going whenever the wheels are touching ground B) Also I can't believe you beat Hill Climb so quick! That shit was hard af! The whole game was pretty tough, but it felt really good once you had all the techniques down. It's a good game, & I'm glad you enjoyed it!
One of my favorite games ever....even though it took me forever to beat and unlock everything. That track editor was amazing for its time. Nothing else like it back then.
Hey, THIS IS HOW TAKEDOWNS WORK: if your rear tyre touches someone else's front tyre you take them down; if their rear tyre touches your front tyre you get taken down.
Berms allow you to go faster around a corner because they redirect some of the lateral g-force into the ground, thereby enhancing traction and enabling you to maintain higher speeds without skidding.
6:50 Destruction Derby 64 has like, the same announcer. I remember nearing the end of SAT tests and counting down questions in my head…”that’s another one down, FIVE TO GO!!!”
Great video as always for a fun game. I love the next game! I never owned it but I rented it all of the time. It's so fun and can't wait to see it! Have a great day Thab!
This is part of the n64 starter pack along with goldeneye, Mario kart, shadows of the empire, wave race and 1080. At least in my neighborhood. Obviously there were many more great games (still waiting for you to pull ocarina). The n64 was such a great system.
oh boy I played the hell out of this game as a kid, mastered even, track editor was cool af, stunt course lets you see all the cool tricks, that was one of the few games I played without the stick, but with the D-pad instead, Z and L both worked as the turbo button, so it was more confy than the stick iIMO. also a little trick is to "do a wheelie" at the very tip of any ramp, basically pressing turbo and "down" at the same time at the very edge of any type of ramp, this will create a mini turbo that will make you jump farther. after learning the basic layout of each course, every jump you will preemptively turn the bike in the air for the next turn, it was cool man just believe me being a kid and having to wait for christmas or birthday for a new game made me appreciate this game, cool video brought up nostalgia memories
I didn't know this game had soccer too. I used to play it on Monster Truck Madness 64 and, when Rocket League blew up, I was adamant they ripped it off THAT game.
this is one of my favorite games ever. I think Tricky Ricky Stern was the best char, but I don't remember why. On big jumps you want to pull back on the stick as much as possible, you go much further. That's the only way to make the canyon jump. The R button lets you slide which helps a lot with the sharper corners. You also want to stay as close to the red as possible throughout the race. If your front tire touches another player's back tire, you will crash 100% of the time.
I can confirm that the track editor was insanely cool as a kid. I would make giant jumps followed by hairpin turns that loop back around, allowing you to jump straight to the later part of the course. Better yet, the other riders didn't have good enough AI to recognize the shortcuts, so my 6 year old brain could enjoying winning over and over

Not true bro
@@arturocevallossoto5203 not true either bro
Underrated game! This was all about learning how to handle the bike physics (you had a lot of control), once you got a good grip on this, the difficulty became trivial. Powersliding into corners is something I see missing here, that helps a lot. Great vid!
This is still the best motocross game out there to this day. The controls, the tracks, the cheats, the soccer game, everything was awesome about it !
Crazy. Good to know
This game was great but MOTO RACER will always be the GOAT.
MX vs ATV number 1!
100% agree. I cant believe no one has done it better, they need to continue the series.
EB64 felt like a hidden gem at the time.
The controls are tight and unique, similarly to what made Wave Race so special.

this still one of the best handling dirtbike games out there imo.. feels like theres actual power to the wheels
Pete Malogne yeah this was a good one
Having played two other ones later for this series, yeah this one handles so well in comparison. It's very hard to get used to, but it feels great once you're pretty good at it

YES! This is a great series. By far my favorite.
Thanks for being committed to this series.
I’m waiting for him to do F-Zero X and see if he’s gonna beat all the staff ghosts lol
Damn how did I miss this game entirely in the N64 days? It looks amazing even today. My mind would have been blown by it back then.
This was one of my favorite 64 games and I just actually played through it again last year. I've been waiting for this one!

Thank you for the jumpin Jim Rivers clip. That one hit the nostalgic bone
I hope this series makes Thab a millionaire when it's all said and done!
Sergei was just casually on his way to crash super hard into the station
one of the best racing games ever, shame no one I knew had it or played it
I wasn't expecting ROCKET LEAGUE of all things to pop up in such an old game.
I'm bed ridden, recovering from surgery. And it is such a nice treat to watch one of my favorite youtube series while I recover.
i love excite bike 64, holds a childhood memories, was waiting for this to be released, great video as always
This looks like one of the most solid games I've seen on this challenge so far.
I love the series 😍
Same. Let's be friends ☺️
Best game ever
beautiful. 64 likes
I actually played Flying Dragon as a kid and have been wanting to rebuy it. excited for the next episode
I played it too. I remember liking the chibi fighters more than the adult ones. I think you got random drops to improve the fighters. It was fun from what I recall.
14:43 - "90 pesos..." 😂
It is always a good day when a new N64 challenge video comes out.
I knew this game very late in my life. I would have enjoyed in its time so much. A hidden gem for N64

I played this game obsessively. I so badly wanted a dirt bike as a kid and this was a way of getting that fix without my parents spending thousands of dollars.
Excited for the next game. It was a really standout and kind of weird one.
One of my favorite shows on UA-cam while I make art. Keep killing it man!
JUMPIN’ JIM RIVERS!!
Thab giving me something to look forward to every friday, Always watching the n64 vids when i go to bed on fridays now, holy moment.

best dirtbike game ever made till this day.
One quarter of the way through. Ish. We're with you.
Absolutely loving this series thanks for the nostalgia 🤙

If i don't see "Tricky" Ricky Stern hit a Kobe over the canyon chasm, then i can't even consider this game as being beaten.
Awesome video as always, 10/10!
Hell yeah glad to see a post. Although i have been watching on twitch lately, getting that real time content.
everybody gangsta til thab say i am beating every n64 game and i mean all of em
Ahh the 4player memories
My cousins had this game. We would play for hours!
Hey, THIS IS HOW TAKEDOWNS WORK: if your rear tyre touches someone else's front tyre you take them down; if their rear tyre touches your front tyre you get taken down.
Looks pretty good for an N64 game
Love this game. Played it with my friend so much. The good ol’ days :)
Berms allow you to go faster around a corner because they redirect some of the lateral g-force into the ground, thereby enhancing traction and enabling you to maintain higher speeds without skidding.
It's strange how much I appreciate the "What's that?" 😂
6:50 Destruction Derby 64 has like, the same announcer. I remember nearing the end of SAT tests and counting down questions in my head…”that’s another one down, FIVE TO GO!!!”
Oh thank God, a clip of Jumpimg Jim River's Face in the internet. 5:51
I really need that reference right now.
Thank you for doing this! I’m most excited for Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask to get drawn! What games are you most looking forward to Thabeast721?
Probably Paper Mario.
Star Wars Pod Racer's announcer was so much more excited. "IT'S A NEW LAP RECORRRRRRD"
Great video as always for a fun game. I love the next game! I never owned it but I rented it all of the time. It's so fun and can't wait to see it! Have a great day Thab!
Well this channel is just horribly addictive isn't it.
The greatest undertaking since the hoover dam continues. Did you know Excitebike came out in 1984 for the Famicom?!
Okay, ive seen your channel prob like i dunno, 5 months ago…and now this comes across at random, im here for this for sure!!!!
This is part of the n64 starter pack along with goldeneye, Mario kart, shadows of the empire, wave race and 1080. At least in my neighborhood. Obviously there were many more great games (still waiting for you to pull ocarina). The n64 was such a great system.
flying dragon was great!
I can’t wait for Road Rash. Thanks for doing this man. Cheers
The Sergei callback 😍
I LOVED that the NES Excitebike was in this game! So cool!
Add tricks to get more air and you will make jumps , they are there for a reason. Good vid bro :)
There is a racing game for the SNES that was developed by Vivid Image in 1994 called Street Racer that had a soccer mini game too! It was pretty fun!
oh boy I played the hell out of this game as a kid, mastered even, track editor was cool af, stunt course lets you see all the cool tricks, that was one of the few games I played without the stick, but with the D-pad instead, Z and L both worked as the turbo button, so it was more confy than the stick iIMO.
also a little trick is to "do a wheelie" at the very tip of any ramp, basically pressing turbo and "down" at the same time at the very edge of any type of ramp, this will create a mini turbo that will make you jump farther.
after learning the basic layout of each course, every jump you will preemptively turn the bike in the air for the next turn, it was cool man just believe me
being a kid and having to wait for christmas or birthday for a new game made me appreciate this game, cool video brought up nostalgia memories
I take it that, for speed, you want to be in the air as *little* as possible, only jumping far enough to land on the downward slope of the next hill.
The soccer mini game was one of my favorites when I was a kid, now I'm in love with Rocket League.
I didn't know this game had soccer too. I used to play it on Monster Truck Madness 64 and, when Rocket League blew up, I was adamant they ripped it off THAT game.
The excite bike track editor may be primitive but track editors are genuinely rare in racing games. Very uncommon
this is one of my favorite games ever. I think Tricky Ricky Stern was the best char, but I don't remember why. On big jumps you want to pull back on the stick as much as possible, you go much further. That's the only way to make the canyon jump. The R button lets you slide which helps a lot with the sharper corners. You also want to stay as close to the red as possible throughout the race. If your front tire touches another player's back tire, you will crash 100% of the time.
I think you have to press forward first as you're going up a ramp, and then back when you jump. Simulates preloading the suspension.
Distance also had a soccer mode, and it was pretty fun. They removed it when it became clear that Rocket League had conquered that genre mashup.
He’s beating every n64 game and he means all of them
Hill climb strat. Riding the edge is very sketchy, but the bumps/jumps aren't as bad allowing you to more easily maintain a consistent speed.
Every Friday I hold in anticipation that beast will get Conkers Bad Fur Day or the Zelda Games
One of my favorite games and first one that I ever unblocked everything. I can still hear "C-C-C-CORDOVA!!"
