Randomized Dungeons, Online Features Fuel Latest Mystery Dungeon Adventures
Ever wondered what it would be like to become a Pokémon? With the April
20 launch of Pokémon® Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Pokémon®
Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness for Nintendo DS™, hand-held
gamers will soon find out.
In this pair of action-packed
adventures, players journey as actual Pokémon through a fantastic land
untouched by humans. Before the game starts, players take a test to
help them figure out which of 16 Pokémon best represents their
personalities. Players then experience their adventure through the eyes
of a Pokémon as they explore the land and embark on an epic journey
through time and darkness. They talk and team up with other Pokémon to
set out on an epic voyage while navigating an endless array of randomly
generated dungeons.
More than 490 Pokémon populate these new
games, guaranteeing strategic, intense battles and infinite
possibilities, no matter which Pokémon players become. To widen their
circle of Pokémon friends, Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection lets users engage
in wireless rescue operations and send alerts to their friends via
e-mail or mobile text message.
"Only the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon
series lets players experience the thrill of actually becoming a
Pokémon character," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's
executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. "It's a unique
perspective that delights both longtime Pokémon fans and newcomers
alike."
Fans of the two previous Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games,
Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, will marvel at the greatly
enhanced graphics, new story and grand adventure in Pokémon Mystery
Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of
Darkness. For Game Boy® Advance owners, the fresh look and wireless
aspects of these new Pokémon titles provide even more reasons to
upgrade to Nintendo DS. And best of all for budget-conscious parents,
Nintendo DS is also able to play the entire library of Game Boy Advance
games.
