I think the reason they havent mentioned it is because its most likely a excite truck feature and not something built into the hardware.

I suppose the ProDuo cards wouldn't work? I have a few laying around that I don't want anymore; would be nice to put them to use.

Nope, gotta be one of the SD's. SD, MiniSD, MicroSD's should work, as long as you have the adapter for the mini/micros

 

[Slippers]

Metallica - Whiskey in the Jar

Perfect song to suit the game imo

the dubliners and the pogues- whiskey in the jar

even better

Thin Lizzy - Whiskey in the Jar

even bester

I like this live version from The Dubliners. Jenny's cheating with Captain Farrell.

Awesome. There's a definitely more than a few games to which I'd love to add a custom soundtrack. Props to MS/Xbox for initiating this as a viable feature.

Actually, you can play MP3's from the SD card in the Photo Channel as you browse and do slideshows.
I think the reason the Wii doesn't have a dedicated player for controlling the ability to play any music over any game is that Nintendo don't feel it necessary to have the feature available for every game and would rather the developers enabled that ability within specific game options.

I think butt rock would go well with a truck game. Nice to have the option though. You could just make a playlist on your PC and bring it over. No ripping disks.

Barf.... Wtf, like the worst metallica song ever.


Battery FTW.

 

[StRaNgE]

Excite Truck still has that shitty buttrock?

we can be very very thankfull that it is not hip hop!


buttrock>hiphop otherwise know as C-Rap

(not that the soundtrack of generic buttrock is any good either) :lol

Hell Yeah!

Disposable Heroes would go well as well!

That'd be awesome. (also, I have a soft spot for B&S's version )

 

[Particle Physicist]

does anyone knows how's the compatibility of using micro-sd with an sd adapter on devices for sd only?

A microSD + SD Adapter should be compatible with everything that is SD compatible.

As far as I know, microSD and SD share the same tech, just one is smaller. All the adapter does is connect the microSD's metal contacts to the SD contacts.

to those bitching about 100 songs, 360 has (or at least had) a limit of 100 songs per playlist.. I really don't see this as too much different. the only way you can "choose" more than 100 songs on the 360 is to either play all songs on shuffle or a single artist on shuffle. so really this doesn't seem too much different from that in that respect..

though it would be nice if this were standardized across the system.

 

[Thraktor]

Is there any info on whether any other audio formats are supported? Everything I've got is in AAC, so it'd be a bitch to have to transcode a load of it to MP3 just for Excite Truck.

 

[GitarooMan]

Cool news, I'll definitely put together a playlist for it, gotta pick up a cheap 1GB SD card.

 

[Hooterville]

 

[Adagio]

Orchestrated Zelda confirmed.

 

[G4life98]

do we have a concrete answer on whether or not usb hard drives will work?

I remember Perrin Kaplan or someone saying no quite clearly a while ago, but I can't remember what interview that was.
