 Bulls Eye for SEGA as it Announces SEGA Presents Touch Darts for Nintendo DS    


LONDON (April 5th, 2007) – SEGA Europe, Ltd. today announced that development is well under way on SEGA Presents Touch Darts™ for the Nintendo DS™. Scheduled to be released across Europe in summer 2007, SEGA Presents Touch Darts combines individual dart competitions within a stylised playing environment, along with a mixture of amusing multiplayer modes and wildly inspired mini-games. Based upon Touch Mechanics original game concept and developed by respected handheld game developers Full Fat, SEGA Presents Touch Darts will be released across Europe in summer 2007 exclusive for the Nintendo DS.    


With its stylised look and feel SEGA Presents Touch Darts grabs darts by the flight and boldly steps up to the oche. Players can use the unique touch screen of the Nintendo DS to accurately simulate the throwing of a dart and by drawing the stylus over the touch screen, players will be able to aim their dart and throw it with all the precision of a seasoned pro.    


“SEGA Presents Touch Darts is a great fit for the DS: the touch screen, the multiplayer options, the innovative gameplay and the great mini-games make it a fantastic addition to anyone’s DS collection," said Gary Knight, European Marketing Director, SEGA Europe.    


Featuring a roster of outrageous extrovert characters, each with their own unique style, SEGA Presents Touch Darts has someone for everyone and mini-games for all, with a healthy dash of artistic license thrown in for good measure.    


SEGA Presents Touch Darts is scheduled for release across Europe during summer 2007 for the Nintendo DS. For more information on all SEGA games please visit www.sega-europe.com

"Sega Casino cost $8 to develop, how much profit did we make?"
"We lost $90,000"
"HOW?!"
"The three people that did buy it filed for rape"
"Well then... we'd better take DS more seriously"
"Sonic Rush 2?"
"DARTS"
"Uh?"
"DAAAAARTS DARTS, I played darts the other day!"
"That's fantasitc"
"IMAGINE IF I COULD PLAY DARTS ON DS!"
"You can, it's one of the many games in Clubhouse Games"
"It's obvious that we should make a darts game for the DS then, and charge more for it than Clubhouse Games"
"I quit"
"YOU CAN'T QUIT, YOU'RE FIRED.. Tim?... Tim?!"

Did SEGA not get the memo about '42 All Time Classics'?
