MINNEAPOLIS, Jan 11, 2010 – Activision Publishing, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) announced today the February 9, 2010 release of Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief, the Nintendo DSTM video game based on Disney-Hyperion Books’ best-selling fantasy novel and highly anticipated film from 20th Century Fox. The video game is a tactical role playing game for Nintendo DSTM that puts players in command of Percy Jackson and his fellow demigods as they battle for survival in a world ruled by vengeful Greek gods.

Percy Jackson is the son of Poseidon, god of the sea, who is in great danger because of jealousy and fear of his powers and heritage. Players in Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief will adventure across America in search of Zeus’ master lightning bolt while assembling their best fighting team to go head-to-head against ruthless enemies. Joining Percy are his friends Annabeth and Grover, and plenty more allies each with his or her own “godly” abilities and battle advantages. Planning which team member to take into battle is key to survival – lots of opportunities exist in the game for different characters’ abilities to interact with one another, and for characters to boost each other’s effectiveness.


“Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson books have been on the New York Times Best Seller list for children’s books for over 120 weeks straight, and the Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief film is one of the most buzzed about for 2010,” said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. “We’re honored to work on such a hot property, building on the elements that fans love to create a fantastic video game that can be played on the go.”

“The film is so action-packed that a video game is a natural extension,” said Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief film director Chris Columbus. “Activision has been the ideal partner to bring the book to life yet another thrilling way.”

Kommt doch kein HD-Gerät als Nachfolger des DS?

Scheinbar wurde die Aussage von Satoru Iwata bezüglich eines Nachfolgers des DS, welcher über HD-Grafik und Bewegungssteuerung verfügen soll, komplett falsch verstanden. Denn nun wurden genau diese Aussage von Iwata als nicht richtig interpretiert angegeben. Natürlich könnte man nun spekulieren, ob Iwata einfach zuviel aus dem Nähkästchen geplaudert hatte oder der Nachfolger tatsächlich kein HD-Gerät wird. Das genaue Statement lautet wie folgt:

Satoru Iwata hat keinerlei Äußerungen hinsichtlich Funktionen einer zukünftigen Nintendo-Hardware gemacht. Die Antworten auf die Fragen des Reporters wurden missverstanden

DSi XL officially dated for Europe

thumb_ww2b.jpg



ONM has revealed that the DSi XL will launch in the UK on March 5 2010.

The new model - which is available in wine red and dark brown colours - will come pre-loaded with Dr Kawashima's: Little Bit of Brain Training: Arts Edition and Dictionary 6 in 1 with Camera Function, as well as Flipnote Studio and the DSi Browser.

Price details have yet to be confirmed but last year Nintendo stated that "the retail price is expected to be higher than that of the DSi."

This, the fourth edition of Nintendo's DS handheld console, boasts two 4.2 inch screens which are 93% larger than those on a DS Lite. These screens have an improved wider viewing angle so onlookers will be able to watch you playing games over your shoulder.

The new larger pen-like stylus that comes with the console has, according to Nintendo, been designed to make 'extended stylus gameplay more comfortable.'
