Excite Truck features a custom soundtrack option

Posted November 11th 2006 by Daniel Sousa.

Listen to your own mp3s in-game.

Lucky IGN was one of the first members of the media to receive a Wii. After hearing Fusion Tour rumors about a custom soundtrack option in Excite Truck, they decided to try it out themselves. It turns out the rumors were true! They included an excerpt from the instruction manual that explains the option:

Excite Truck allows you to listen to your personal MP3 music files during the game. By inserting an SD Card into your Wii console, you can choose the music you want to hear.

How to Select Music Tracks

1. Insert your SD Card into the Wii console.

2. Begin or continue a game and enter any race. Before the race begins, press + on the Wii Remote to access the Sound Options screen.

3. Select the "SD Card" option.

4. Any MP3 files available on your SD Card will be displayed (100 songs maximum). To choose a specific song for the race you are about to enter, highlight that song. You can also choose to randomize all songs shown for that course. Highlighting "Default" will play the standard in-game music.

5. Press 1 to return to the Sound Options menu, then 1 again to return to the pre-race screen. You can also use the "Sound" command at any point during the race to change the current song.

Definitely a cool option!

Meh. A poor substitute for the 360's network play option. Either way both methods are too much work anyway.

Clicking and dragging an mp3 file onto an SD card is simple. Trust me.
