Your Shape Featuring Jenny McCarthy Now In Stores In North America

SAN FRANCISCO, USA – November 24, 2009 – Ubisoft® today announced that its ground-breaking new fitness title, Your Shape(TM) Featuring Jenny McCarthy is now available at retail. Leveraging an entirely new, motion-sensing camera peripheral for the Wii(TM) system from Nintendo, Your Shape Featuring Jenny McCarthy is the first fitness video game that enables people to experience a comprehensive workout controller-free.

The camera, which is included with the game, provides a completely personalized and interactive workout by scanning players’ bodies, assessing their current fitness level and then projecting their images onto the TV. Once the player completes an initial fitness test, the game is able to completely personalize their workout routine to their fitness level as well as their personal fitness goals and schedule. And, with the innovative new motion-tracking technology, the game is able to follow a player’s movements as they workout, and guide them in real time so that they know whether or not they’re doing the exercises correctly.

On Saturday, while it was the five year anniversary of the Nintendo DS’ original release in North America, the DSi XL launched in Japan. Famitsu has reported on the system’s first two days of sales and has determined that it sold 103,524 in two days. It should be noted that this data is from Enterbrain and not Media Create, which is sometimes a more trustworthy source for sales numbers. Still, it seems as though the handheld is off to a fairly good start, especially considering that the handheld isn’t a major upgrade to the DSi.
