HUDSON ENTERTAINMENT’S FISHING MASTER WORLD TOUR CAN NOW BE CAUGHT

REDWOOD CITY, CA – January 6, 2009 – Hudson Entertainment, the North
American publishing arm for HUDSON SOFT, announced today FISHING
MASTER WORLD TOUR is now available at retail for an SRP of $29.99. A
sequel to the popular FISHING MASTER, FISHING MASTER WORLD TOUR is
published by Hudson Entertainment for North and South America.

Staying true to the first version’s realistic controls, aspiring
Fishing Masters use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk as they battle to hook
the fish on their line, just like in real life.  Players must move the
Wii Remote left and right as the fish fights from the end of the line
and adjust their drag so their line doesn’t break. Once gamers have
the basics down, they can try their newfound skills by competing with
friends via new enhancements made just for the sequel – four-person
multiplayer modes! In Wi-Fi mode, players compete online against other
Fishing Masters over who will catch the biggest fish in various
worldwide locations. Gamers will also enjoy local multiplayer battle
which enables them to play against their friends and family members in
a variety of different battle modes.
