SAN FRANCISCO – September 3, 2009 – Ubisoft today announced that it will be releasing an all new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(TM) adventure game in honor of the 25th anniversary of the brand. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Arcade Attack, developed exclusively for Nintendo DS(TM) system, has an original storyline and is a side-scrolling beat-’em-up game. It is a tribute to the original coin-op classics that made the Turtles into video game legends. The game pits the four Ninja Turtle brothers against their old nemesis, Shredder, and his many villainous henchmen.

“The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 25th anniversary ‘shell-ebration’ is quickly turning into a Turtle fan’s dream, especially if they love video games,” said Gary Richardson, CEO of Mirage Studios. “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Arcade Attack will absolutely thrill the old school Turtle fan, especially the ones that recall putting in countless hours at the arcade, as well as the newer fan who loves ninja action.”

“One of the explanations we have is that there’s a lot of double ownership. So people having a Wii and a 360 and/or PS3. They’re really playing different types of games on those two machines, and historically up to know we assume those people will have played the more mature content on the more high-tech machine. Dead Space: Extraction is going to be a very nice test of that hypothesis, because we’re really building a game where the Wii version is very different to the Dead Space game on 360 and PS3, and we’ll actually see whether we can reach more people with a) a great game and b) interesting content. If that’s not going to work, then obviously the whole proposal from our point of view at least of more mature games on the Wii just does not work.” – Dr Jens Uwe Intat, European VP at Electronic Arts

Whether or not you’re interested in horror titles, I think most of us can agree that Dead Space Extraction is a quality game. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean EA will see positive sales. We’ll have to see how the game performs, but I do hope it sells more than MadWorld.

“Yes, probably in the next few months…I think there’ll be some combination of things. I think we’ll be sticking with some of the franchises we’ve worked with, and we’ll be announcing some new franchises, probably in some new genres as well, not just comedy.” – head honcho Dan Connors

Telltale Games has, without a doubt, been most known for their comedic point-and-click adventures. Is there any genre in particular you guys would like to see them tackle?
