In like a lamb and out like a lion, or vice-versa? Whether March finds you digging out from a late-winter blizzard or reeling in the spring thaw, the fun is both mild and wild at the Wii™ Shop Channel. Even the littlest lambs in your household can take part in a cool new family-friendly WiiWare™ game, while strategy-loving gamers will be roaring like lions as they battle evil foes in a classic Virtual Console™ title.

Family & Friends Party (Gammick Entertainment, 1-8 players, Rated E for Everyone, 1,000 Wii Points): Have fun with all your friends and family as you take on some very exciting challenges. This is an interactive board game for as many as eight players of all ages. The goal is to be the first to complete a series of challenges. During each turn, a challenge will be played by one or two players per team depending on the type of challenge you’ve been given. (Other players on your team can still help and support you). There are six different “Single” challenges that must be played cooperatively by members of the same team. Family & Friends Party can also suggest “Versus” challenges, which must be played competitively by all teams at the same time.

Calling on gamers and geeks of London on Saturday 7th March, DS:London will be holding a DS charity Tournament to raise money in aid of Red Nose Day. The main games being played will be Tetris, Bomberman and Mario Kart along with some other smaller tournaments on other DS games and Wii, time permitting. There will be plenty of opportunities for people to play games casually around the event as well.
There will be games prizes for the top players on the day plus other freebies for people donating kindly contributed by Forbidden Planet, the world’s largest and best-known science fiction, fantasy and cult entertainment retailer and Orbital, another great comic/manga/toy store in London. For people attending early and donating there will also be a goody bag! I would like to stress that you do not have to enter the tournaments! Just come join us watching the matches, chatting about topics of the day, enjoying a tipple or two or bash out some duel screen gaming! We are are aiming to get between 50 – 100 people.
The tournament structure will be knockout and entry will be £3 for all tournaments. A recommended donation of £2 for all other people joining us for the day to casually play or else socialise with other like minded gamers. All donations go to Comic Relief.
