Tinker Bell, PictoImage doodle onto DS

By Tom Magrino, GameSpotPosted May 22, 2008 3:47 pm PT

Disney supplying Nintendo's portable with fairy-themed minigames compilation this holiday, while Sega lends drawing party game this August.

Last week, Nintendo of America said it would be adding metallic pink to the Nintendo DS's regularly available color palette later this year. With America Ferrera and Carrie Underwood signed on to promote the newest pink DS, Nintendo seems to be targeting the female-gamer sect with its latest hue. Today, Disney Interactive Studios said it, too, had the girls in mind, announcing Disney Fairies: Tinker Bell will be available on the DS this holiday.

As the name suggests, Tinker Bell of Peter Pan fame will be the focus of the game, and it will feature "dozens" of other fairies from the Disney universe, including Silvermist, Iridessa, and Fawn. Players will be able to explore the fantasy world of Pixie Hollow, and gameplay will revolve around time-based challenges and minigames. Players will also be afforded a range of clothing and other customization options, and the title will support Disney's DS networking service DGamer.

Also for the casual-gaming crowd, Sega today announced PictoImage will arrive on the DS this August. Billed as a "pick-up-and-play puzzle game," PictoImage lets up to eight players compete in drawing challenges across eight different modes. While the game will primarily have a party-game focus, it will also include single- and two-player modes, where players take turns guessing an image from a selection of more than 300 drawings.

    My girls love the disney fairies. This better not be a make-a-quick-buck game that uses the Disney fairy IP to sell the product. My girls deserve good games to play too!

    Ok. But who the in the name of god is America Ferrera and Carrie Underwood? They would do better with Hanna Montana. I see her every where. Poor girl they are selling her to death. But hay it would sell a lot more copys.

    I don't know either to be ashamed I'm a college student who is interested by this game. or ashamed I'm telling the world. either way should be interesting.
