According to 3DSBuzz, side-scrolling classic Excitebike was originally released on the NES in 1984 and is being reborn via the new ?3D Classics? range, which will feature numerous old Nintendo titles given a fresh-faced 3D revamp.

Noteworthy games from other classic Nintendo hardware platforms, such as the Game Boy/Advance (GBA), the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), and even Game Gear are also likely to arrive during the near future.

Nintendo significantly improves the appeal of its upcoming online eShop by offering 3DS users free access to the awesome racing classic Excitebike.

In terms of upcoming videogame downloads, eager 3DS owners can look forward to an initial smattering of Virtual Console titles plucked from the software portfolios of handheld systems such as the Game Boy, Game Boy Colour, and more.
