THQ has announced the launch of Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise for the Nintendo DS. The title is available exclusively for the Nintendo DS and is rated E. Retail price for the title is $29.99 and it is based on the game originally launched for the Xbox 360.

In the game players inherit a garden on Pinata Island that has not been kept up. The goal of the game is for the player to decorate the garden, clean it, and grow new plants. Players will also take care of the new piñatas the garden attracts.

"With the continually growing market share of the Nintendo DS, THQ is pleased to bring the cherished Viva Pinata series to the system for the first time," said Terri Schiek, vice president, North American sales and distribution, THQ. "The intuitive interface of the Nintendo DS is perfectly suited for the open-ended and customizable gameplay in Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise. We expect the title to be a great addition to the handheld market as we head into the holiday season."
