Pinnacle strikes RealPlay deal

Pinnacle Software has signed an exclusive deal with British vendor In2Games to distribute its range of RealPlay wireless motion sensing games.

The first slew of titles – RealPlay Racing, RealPlay Pool, RealPlay Golf, RealPlay and PuzzleSphere (pictured) will be released on November 30th priced at 34.99 each. Each title comes with its own specially designed Wii-style wireless controller.

Two additional titles, RealPlay Bowling and RealPlay Tennis, will follow early next year.

Pinnacle Software is the right partner for such a unique range of titles,” said Paul Rebhan, sales director at In2Games. We needed a team who immediately bought into the concept and the opportunity at retail; but one which, more importantly, ‘understood’ what we’re trying to do.”

Pinnacle MD Peter Sleeman added: Innovative, enjoyable and affordable – that’s the RealPlay range in three words, and we’re delighted to have won the contract to handle UK distribution. The PS2 still boasts the largest installed base of any home console, and the RealPlay range extends its offering into the realms of next generation.”
