Nintendo is touched.

Nintendo's Touch Generations Portable Gaming Brand Sees Huge Growth    


                                                  New Games Include a Dalmatian Puppy and 40+ Clubhouse Games
   


    REDMOND, Wash., Oct. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Nintendo's popular Touch   Generations portable gaming brand includes Nintendo DS(TM) video games meant   for anyone to pick up and play, regardless of their prior gaming experience.    And that easy-to-use philosophy is translating into strong sales.  Already,   close to 3.5 million Touch Generations games have sold in the United States,   demonstrating an expanding audience of consumers' desire for simple, fun games   that don't take years of gaming experience to master.          


    One of the most popular Touch Generations games is Nintendogs(TM), an   emotionally addictive, portable puppy-training program that took the world by   storm last year and redefined the meaning of "video game."  A limited-edition   version of Nintendogs called Dalmatian & Friends hits stores Oct. 18.  The   game lets users adopt, train and care for a puppy chosen from one of the six   starter breeds: Dalmatian, golden retriever, Yorkshire terrier, beagle, boxer   and German shepherd.  To date in the United States, the three versions of   Nintendogs have sold more than 2.2 million units combined, ranking them atop   the list of all-time Nintendo DS best sellers.    


      Another Touch Generations game is Nintendo's new Clubhouse Games(TM).    Available today exclusively for Nintendo DS(TM) Lite, Clubhouse Games includes   more than 40 traditional party favorites like checkers, darts and poker.  A   highly social product, players can play solo, or with up to seven friends via   single-card local wireless play.  Or they can log onto Nintendo(R) Wi-Fi   Connection, Nintendo's wireless gaming service, to challenge friends   worldwide.    


      "Clubhouse Games demonstrates yet another way we're reaching beyond avid,   experienced gamers and providing entertaining experiences for everyone --   young and old," explains George Harrison, Nintendo of America's senior vice   president of marketing and corporate communications.  "Our Touch Generations   brand has proved to be a huge hit -- just find the distinctive orange labels   and you're ready to play."

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

They should stop writing Lite there, that confused my sister into thinking you can't play Brain Training on a normal DS.

I haven't heard much about clubhouse games.  Could they have picked a worse names?  Sounds like one of those GBA games that they spent $2 making.

Clubhouse Games sure as hell beats the Euro name, 42 All-Time Classics. That sounds like old folks music, 2 disc set.

No, that sounds like one of those "50000 full versions for Windows" CDs.
