REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– The new Animal Crossing™: City Folk game for the Wii™ console launches Nov. 16, allowing players to move into fun communities, customize their surroundings and interact with hundreds of animal characters.

REDWOOD CITY, CA. – November 11, 2008 – Hudson Entertainment, the North
American publishing arm of HUDSON SOFT, today announced that they will
bring Pit Crew Panic!, an all-new “panic-action” game, to WiiWare.

repairs a variety of bizarre “WHATSITS” as fast as they can.

“Pit Crew Panic is crazy enough when playing alone,” said Sabine
Duvall, Vice President of Product Development at Hudson Entertainment.
“But when you play this game with friends, either offline or online,
it goes beyond crazy. Endeavoring mechanics will find that it’s a ton
of fun when there are four people waving Wii Remotes around to fix
parts on a giant broken toilet!”
