Template:Infobox Excitebike: Bun Bun Mario Battle Stadium (エキサイトバイク ぶんぶんマリオバトルスタジアム Ekisaitobaiku Bun Bun Mario Batoru Sutajiamu: noting that "bun bun" is a Japanese onomatopoeia for buzzing sounds - in this case, produced by the bikes - this title can also be understood as simply "Excitebike: Mario Battle Stadium") is an remake/adaptation of the NES title, Excitebike.
