Game night will be forever changed with the advent of classic Hasbro games on Nintendo Wii, DS, PC and mobile phones later this year.

LITTLEST PET SHOP and NERF ’N-STRIKE will be available on Wii and DS this fall, with development of MONOPOLY, SCRABBLE and other titles on multiple platforms underway, EA Casual Entertainment announced Monday.

EA Mobile will add MONOPOLY HERE & NOW, TRIVIAL PURSUIT, RISK and YAHTZEE ADVENTURES this spring to their slate of first-generation mobile games like SCRABBLE and YAHTZEE DELUXE.

An online, multiplayer TRIVIAL PURSUIT should launch this fall on EA’s Pogo.com.

Pogo.com is also developing multiplayer online experiences for MONOPOLY and YAHTZEE, as well as launching OPERATION and PICTUREKA, which can be played offline or on Pogo.com for bonus features and a social experience.

“Bringing the spirit of these games to life as video games has allowed us to create really unique and creative experiences for families and friends of all ages to enjoy together at home or online,” said Chip Lange, Vice President and General Manager of EA’s Hasbro Studio

EA will unveil LITTLEST PET SHOP on Wii and DS, NERF ’N-STRIKE and EA Mobile’s SCRABBLE, YAHTZEE ADVENTURES and MONOPOLY HERE & NOW at Hasbro’s Toy Fair showcase in New York Feb. 17-19.
