 Bakery Chaos Ensues as Majesco Entertainment Ships 'Cake Mania' for the Nintendo DS(TM)

    EDISON, N.J., April 3 -- Cake-baking craziness is on the menu this spring as Majesco Entertainment Company, an innovative provider of digital entertainment products and content, today announced that Cake Mania for the Nintendo DS(TM) has shipped nationwide. Cake Mania DS(TM) is based on Sandlot Games' leading online game that has been downloaded 35 million times worldwide and earned both the iParenting Media Award and the 2006 Casual Game of the Year award from Yahoo Games. Developed by Digital Embryo, Cake Mania DS(TM) is now available for a suggested retail price of $19.99.  

 "Cake Mania is an online phenomenon that's earned and been nominated for multiple prestigious awards," said Ken Gold, vice president of Marketing. "By including the entire original online game plus the expansion pack onto one game card for only $19.99, we're offering Nintendo DS(TM) owners an excellent game at an outstanding value."  

 Players assume the role of Jill who returns from culinary school to find her beloved grandparents' bakery closed down because a new Mega-Mart store opened in the neighborhood. Players must upgrade Jill's kitchen with state-of-the-art baking tools while serving her increasingly difficult customers so she can ultimately earn enough money to re-open her grandparents' bakery. Offering 84 levels of progressively frenetic baking, Cake Mania challenges gamers to simultaneously handle all aspects of customer service via the Touch Screen, from handing out menus and collecting cash, to baking, frosting and decorating cakes. As her customer base grows, so does the frantic pace of the bakery until Jill is a cake-making maniac!

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.
