UPDATE: Nintendo has confirmed to us that the game is the Famicom Disc System version, including the track editor, additional tracks/music and 2 player multiplayer. The release will happen once the challenges in "Builders Week" are completed, the first of which is to tip in Maro vs Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars. Original story follows.

Nintendo appears to be releasing an old Famicom Disk System title this week, but have not indicated which platform will get it.

A tweet promoting "Builders Week" on the Nintendo of America Twitter announced the release this week:

Vs Excitebike released on the Famicom Disk System in Japan in 1988 and features new music, saving of custom tracks and a 2 player mode with adjustable lap options.

While the FDS Vs. Excitebike *is* the better title, I was hoping this would be the arcade Vs. Excitebike, leading towards a launch of additional Vs. Arcade titles.

Huh, I'm not sure if I knew this existed. Could be interesting.
