EA announces that it will release a Nintendo DS version of The Urbz: Sims in the City in November.
Nintendo DS and Electronic Arts announced that it plans to release a DS version of The Urbz: Sims in the City this November. The game is currently in development by EA and this DS version of the game will contain new features not found on its PC, home consoles or GBA counterparts.
"We're thrilled that this new franchise is the first from Electronic Arts to illustrate the power of the Nintendo DS," said Sinjin Bain, vice president and executive producer. "On the Nintendo DS, we are able to do things with The Urbz: Sims in the City that we could not do with any other console. Like the system itself, this game is completely unique. Never before have Sims players been able to unleash their alter egos in an urban environment--complete with the sounds, scenes, and settings of the city."
The title shows sims moving to the city of Miniopolis, where your reputation is everything. Such features for the DS version will include a wireless multiplayer mode, touch-screen input, 24 objects, 5 minigames, 7 characters and 8 species of pets you can create using the in-game gene manipulator.
