TWO NEW NINTENDO DS GAMES LET
PLAYERS EXPLORE THEIR INNER POKMON

Randomized Dungeons, Online
Features Fuel Latest Mystery Dungeon Adventures

Ever wondered what it would be like
to become a Pokémon? With the April 20 launch of Pokémon® Mystery Dungeon:
Explorers of Time and Pokémon® Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness for
Nintendo DS™, hand-held gamers will soon find out.

In this pair of action-packed
adventures, players journey as actual Pokémon through a fantastic land untouched
by humans. Before the game starts, players take a test to help them figure out
which of 16 Pokémon best represents their personalities. Players then experience
their adventure through the eyes of a Pokémon as they explore the land and
embark on an epic journey through time and darkness. They talk and team up with
other Pokémon to set out on an epic voyage while navigating an endless array of
randomly generated dungeons.

More than 490 Pokémon populate these
new games, guaranteeing strategic, intense battles and infinite possibilities,
no matter which Pokémon players become. To widen their circle of Pokémon
friends, Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection lets users engage in wireless rescue
operations and send alerts to their friends via e-mail or mobile text message.

"Only the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon
series lets players experience the thrill of actually becoming a Pokémon
character," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president
of Sales & Marketing. "It’s a unique perspective that delights both longtime
Pokémon fans and newcomers alike."

Fans of the two previous Pokémon
Mystery Dungeon games, Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, will marvel at the
greatly enhanced graphics, new story and grand adventure in Pokémon Mystery
Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness.
For Game Boy® Advance owners, the fresh look and wireless aspects of these new
Pokémon titles provide even more reasons to upgrade to Nintendo DS. And best of
all for budget-conscious parents, Nintendo DS is also able to play the entire
library of Game Boy Advance games.
