NINTENDO: New IP proves that "DS equals diversity"

MCV Staff 2nd June 2009 Business News

At its E3 2009 press conference, Nintendo has announced two new games that it has suggested showcase the DS as a platform for diversity.

Ubisoft’s C.O.P: New Recruit is clearly a direct competitor with GTA: IV, and boosts full 3D graphics. It centers on the exploits of an underground street racer turned police officer.

Meanwhile, Style Savvy is a fashion design game clearly aimed at young females.

"As you can see, Nintendo DS equals diversity" said Nintendo marketing boss Cammie Dunaway, immediately after showing trailers for the two games. "It is a platform that literally delivers on the old promise of something for every one."
