Go for the Gold while Avenging Your Brother
Your older brother has been hospitalized in the final race of the World Championships due to an intentional move by a rider from Team Nemeshisu, and it is up to you to avenge him by working your way through the circuit and becoming World Champion. The story is told through a series of graphic-novel style interludes between the races.

Using the Wii remote to control your bike, you'll master different track elements and perform various tricks to please the fans as you progress towards the ultimate race against the man who injured your brother. The game lets you choose between a variety of camera angles including the Look Behind Cam, Follow Cam, and Replay Cam.

Weather Changes and Spectacular Collisions
On different days, riders will experience weather changes, and being able to change your strategy will be essential in winning races. With rain, for example, you'll have to accommodate for the accompanying mud on the ground.

If you lose control and take a hit, the game features collision physics that calculates the severity of the accident by accounting for how fast you were going and what you hit.

Track Design Offers Range of Difficulty
The twisted dirt tracks offer all your favorite features like stutter bumps, tight turns, whoops, and triple-jumps. The game has a carefully constructed difficulty curve, keeping the game interesting and challenging for everyone.

At the outset of the game, you'll have 12 different tracks to work with, but more racing venues become available as you unlock bonus content.

Real Yamaha Supercross Bikes
With a Yamaha license, the game features real Yamaha bikes that enthusiasts will recognize. The bikes are rendered with incredible detail and have unique riding characteristics that you'll have to master. As you progress in the game, you can unlock new bikes and decals for personalization.

Multiplayer Action
You and a friend can play the game together on a split screen either cooperatively as a team or against each other.

Product Description

Riding for Team Yamaha in place of your injured brother, you must work your way through the Championships to reach the Finals. Get there? And your foe is the man who crippled your brother! Beat him as a promising young rider and become a World Champion!

5.0 out of 5 stars Husband says this rates 5 big stars, February 14, 2010

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Yamaha Supercross (Video Game)

I bought this for my husband who is into motorcross in real life. I bought this and another motorcross game and this one is his favorite. He claims the graphics much better and the "courses" are very challenging.
I'm happy that I actually picked something that he really uses and enjoys!

= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Yamaha Supercross (Video Game)

My husband is totally into motocross/supercross and loves Yamaha bikes so I thought this would be a great game for him. It is ok, to steer you use the remote in one hand and the nunchuck in the other hand, it is pretty difficult. It would be better if you could use a steering wheel (or handle bars would be neat) or even a plain old controller. I'm not sure if this is possible but the wheel and the controller don't have all of the same buttons as the nunchuck so I assume you can't use it. The game is ok otherwise.

This review is from: Yamaha Supercross (Video Game)

Seemed very violent, when the riders land, they flop and bounce and my sons found it hard to work the controls for this. I ended up sending it back, was not happy at all with how graphic the wipe outs were.
