Augmented Reality Software Lets Players Discover Ghosts Lurking
Amongst Us EDISON, N.J., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Majesco
Entertainment Company (NASDAQ:COOL), an innovative provider of
video games for the mass market, is bridging the gap between the
real world and the spirit world with the announcement of Ghostwire:
Link to the Paranormal for Nintendo DSi(TM). Developed by A
Different Game, Ghostwire is a powerful piece of software that
turns the Nintendo DSi(TM) into a portal to the paranormal. The
title is expected to launch in late 2010. "Ghostwire: Link to the
Paranormal integrates cutting-edge technology with a unique
augmented reality aesthetic to create a truly exciting piece of
software specifically designed for Nintendo DSi(TM)," said Gui
Karyo, Executive Vice President of Operations, Majesco
Entertainment. "We are thrilled to have such an innovative product
in our lineup and look forward to revealing details about the
experience as we approach next year's launch." In Ghostwire: Link
to the Paranormal, players are challenged to find and capture
apparitions trapped within their own environment by using the
Nintendo DSi(TM) Camera and ghost tuner to access alternative
frequencies beyond the standard Wi-Fi range. Spirits, shadows and
demons all have their own personalities, so finding and "solving"
them is anything but easy. Some are shy. Some are evil. And some
will only interact with you if you bring them something they want.
What's more, factors like time of day and light levels will further
challenge your ghost hunting abilities, but a wide range of
upgradeable equipment is available to help you communicate with the
other side. Keep your mind open and ghost tuners on
