Virtual Toys and Streamline Studios announced that HoopWorldTM, their original 3-on-3 arcade basketball game for WiiWareTM, is now available in North America. The game can be purchased for 1,000 Wii PointsTM from the WiiTM Shop Channel. The companies also launched a new website to celebrate the release and provide the community with a place for all things HoopWorld.
HoopWorld brings over-the-top arcade basketball with a kung-fu power-up twist to the platform, offering unlimited replay ability via 7 uniquely themed teams and 6 outdoor courts/ locations. Connect to the HoopWorld online leader board or play with a friend. Fast, fun, and easy to pick-up arcade action and power-ups will keep players on the edge of their seats, as they basketbrawl their way to the top of the HoopWorld Leader board Championship!
“Our goal was to create the most competitive and fun gameplay experience possible - A real easy to pick-up and play game,” said Jesus Iglesias, creative director of Virtual Toys. “For just 1,000 Wii Points, everyone can jump in and quickly become a master basketbrawler, challenging friends to head-to-head matches, while “trash talking” to the top of the HoopWorld leader boards.”
