Today Ubisoft announces the development of Shaun White Snowboarding for the Nintendo DS system and PSP (PlayStation Portable) system. The game is scheduled for release on November 13, 2008.

Developed in close collaboration with Shaun White, Olympic Gold Medalist and eight-time X Games Gold Medalist, Shaun White Snowboarding for the PSP system and DS allows players to enjoy the thrilling sport of snowboarding anytime, anywhere. Built from the ground up on both platforms, each version includes exclusive and unique features. Using intuitive controls, players can ride and compete on mountains around the world. They can also express their creativity through rides and customization and challenge their friends through wireless multiplayer.

Key features of Shaun White Snowboarding for Nintendo DS:

  • Carve Your Path Through Huge Mountain Environments — Create your own runs to suit your personal riding style, and choose your path down four open mountains. Each path offers its own risks, rewards and opportunities. Big airs, dangerous carves, thrilling speed runs and huge challenges await!
  • Intuitive Stylus Controls — Be in complete control of your rider using intuitive motion–based controls on the Touch Screen. Simply flick the stylus to jump, draw a circle to spin, or slide it across to control your carves. Experiment with a ton of different combinations and get into the game like never before!
  • Wireless Multiplayer for Four — Get your friends together for a snowboarding session using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Up to four players can get in on the action at once — compete in races, point competitions, king of the hill and more.
  • Customize Your Rider and Your Gear — You can choose a rider to suit your own personal style and complete challenges to unlock decals. These decals will not only be a way for you to customize your gear and show your accomplishments to the world, but will also help you customize your riding style by granting you new abilities.

  • Intuitive Controls — Experience a totally intuitive controls scheme, where all tricks and actions are available right from the beginning.
  • Unique Scoring System — Speed, trick, slide and carve your way to victory. Points are allotted based on these four actions rather than simply tricking — link these together to increase your skill rewards.
