EA Japan Studio Brings one of EA's Popular Franchises Exclusively to the Nintendo DS Platform
Electronic Arts announced today the development of Theme
Park exclusively for the Nintendo DS (NDS) system. Based on the
popular simulation game series, Theme Park will allow players to
create, manage, and develop their own fun-filled park, packed with
amazing rides, enticing shops and engaging sideshows, all via an
intuitive Touch Screen interface.
"Theme Park is one of EA's
long standing properties, and we are excited to breathe new life into
the series by bringing it to the NDS platform for the first time ever,"
said Stan Chow, General Manager of EA Japan Studio and Executive
Producer of Theme Park. "Taking advantage of the unique controls in the
NDS, we are able to create an easy-to-pick-up game that offers the
experience of creating and managing your own park to audiences of all
age and gender. The game will have the depth to satisfy fans of the
series, and also be accessible to lighter and new gamers with its
user-friendly controls."
"We are in a unique position to develop
compelling new games that appeal to consumers worldwide by combining
EA's proven global IP with the expertise of EA Japan Studio in the NDS
platform. Theme Park will be the first title out of the studio for
international release, and we look forward to delighting gamers with
this new offering," said Jon Niermann, President, EA Asia Publishing.
Developed
by Tokyo-based EA Japan Studio, the game will deliver all the fun of
the popular Theme Park franchise in the most accessible format for
seasoned gamers and first-time gamers alike. The game is slated for
release in Spring 2007.
