Nintendo DS Game Mixes Charm with Powerful Moves and Fun Platforming Action

REDMOND, Wash., June 8, 2009 – The newest hero on the block might not seem like a powerhouse at first blush, but don’t let him hear you say that. Starfy has long been a five-pointed hero in Japan. The Legendary Starfy™, a new game now available for the portable Nintendo DS™ and Nintendo DSi™ systems, marks Starfy’s U.S. debut and proves that good looks and toughness make a star-studded match.

The Legendary Starfy asks players to help Starfy make his way through a variety of challenges in and around the ocean. Starfy is on a quest to help a mysterious character named Bunston, who crashed through Starfy’s ceiling. Players must figure out how to navigate Starfy to the end of each stage by swimming, jumping and bouncing him over, under and through obstacles.

“Starfy makes a great addition to Nintendo’s roster of iconic characters,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Starfy’s underwater adventures have long been enjoyed by fans in Japan, and his U.S. debut is sure to provide families with hours of summer fun.”

PN Interview: LEGO Battles (DS)

By  •  DS, Interviews

1. What are some of the key gameplay features in LEGO Battles?

[Phill] LEGO® Battles is all about building your base and your army. Players can choose where to place buildings, walls and towers to create a fortification the anyway they want, but more importantly players can mix and match units from the different LEGO themes to create the army they always wanted to have. The LEGO universe allows us to have characters battling it out that are unique and make for some great battles: pirates ships attacking a dragon while fighting an army of aliens is a lot of fun.

2. As an RTS, what were some of the advantages that the DS provided as a platform?

[Phill] The DS is the right platform as the dual screens and touch screen controls allowed us create an interface that was simple for people to get to grips with yet with enough depth to allow them to have full control over their battle.
