VS. Excitebike , a racing game for the Famicom Disk System, is not to be confused with the Nintendo VS UniSystem arcade game of the same name. It's an enhanced version of the Nintendo Entertainment System game Excitebike. The main difference is the addition of a new mode called Vs. Excite . In Vs. Excite , two players race against each other. There is another mode called Original Excite , which is based on the main mode of the arcade version of the game, with some color palette differences.
The Famicom Disk System's rewritable disk format allows players to save their tracks internally, without the need for a separate data recorder. The music has also been replaced entirely in this version.
