Become A Pokemon With Two New DS Games

For more than a decade, fans of Pokemon video games have caught, trained and battled Pokemon. Now Pokemon fans will have the chance to experience life from a Pokemon's point-of-view with POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON: EXPLORERS OF TIME and POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON: EXPLORERS OF DARKNESS, two new games available this week for Nintendo DS.

Furthering the spirit of exploration, Pokemon fans are invited to an online sweepstakes where they will have the chance to uncover their very own treasure -- a prize package filled with Pokemon and Nintendo goodies.

Between April 23 and May 21, Pokemon fans can visit www.PokemonMysteryDungeon.com, where they will be able to enter the POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON online sweepstakes for a chance to win prizes. They include one of two Pokemon-inspired prize packages, including a limited-edition Pikachu Nintendo DS, a Wii console, a high-definition television and assorted Pokemon video games, including POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON: EXPLORERS OF TIME and POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON: EXPLORERS OF DARKNESS, and Pokemon merchandise.

For Pokemon loyalists looking for even more adventure, the POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON Web site is home to an online scavenger hunt where players will be tasked with discovering hidden icons to get access to an exclusive Pokemon wallpaper, giving their computer some extra flair.

"The new POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON series delivers the most transformative Pokemon experience yet -- the chance to become a Pokemon character," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's Executive VP of Sales and Marketing. "Both new and returning players will relish the opportunity to embark on an endless journey through randomly generated dungeons on their Nintendo DS and discover their own hidden treasure through the online sweepstakes."

In this new pair of epic adventures, POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON players are transported to a secluded land inhabited only by Pokemon. After taking a personality test that determines which Pokemon best represents their own personalities, players will experience their adventure and explore the land as an actual Pokemon. In the course of their journey, players are charged with discovering why they've been turned into a Pokemon, all the while trying to thwart a Pokemon bent on stopping time and plunging the world into darkness.

Pokemon players in need of assistance have a great new way to call for help using the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Rescue friends in trouble, or send out an SOS Mail if you are in need of rescue! You can even receive friend rescue-notification e-mails on your PC or cell phone so you always know when a friend is in trouble.

To satiate Pokemon fans looking for new adventures at every turn, the games feature randomly generated dungeons that make every mission unique. With more than 490 Pokemon populating both games, players are sure to find their favorite Pokemon, giving them limitless options when forming their teams in preparation for their next journey.

The new POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON titles are exclusively available for the Nintendo DS system. The compelling storyline and enhanced graphics of these new Pokemon titles provide even more reasons for Game Boy Advance owners to upgrade to Nintendo DS.
