EA Announces My Sims Party for Wii

EA has announced the new My Sims Party game will ship this week for the Nintendo Wii. The title offers a variety of mini-games designed to take advantage of the Wii's unique control methods. The game lets players put reflexes, strategy, and smarts as well as speed against up to three friends in 50 different mini games.

Each character available in the game has different statistics like speed, luck, and strength. Each player picks four of the characters and plays against the competition. Mini-games include DJ Candy, Go Go Dancing, outrunning a robot, and extreme snowboarding.

The game will also ship for the Nintendo DS portable gaming system. The Sims is one of the most popular and highest-selling franchises in the video game industry. “We are very excited to deliver MySims Party and think that it will appeal to new and existing MySims fans with the engaging fun that it provides right from the start,” said Tim LeTourneau, General Manager of the MySims Franchise. “The game capitalizes on the universal appeal and trademark humor of the MySims characters, but also takes the franchise in a different direction providing a new way for players to interact through great multiplayer arcade gameplay.”
