Disney Interactive Studios today kidnapped Hannah Montana, crammed her into a couple of videogame boxes and sent her off to retail stores around the country. OK, not really. But the company did ship two new videogames today based on one of the most popular Disney Channel franchises of all time.
Hannah Montana: Music Jam shipped for the Nintendo DS today, while Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour set sail for the Wii. Below is information from the publisher about both titles:
“Hannah Montana: Music Jam for Nintendo DS defines the meaning of musical creativity in video games as players help Miley Stewart and her alter ego, Hannah Montana, learn how to play musical instruments to compete against her rival, Savannah Star. Players enter the Music Jam Video competition and compete against Savannah Star using their Nintendo DS touch screen to master the guitar and drums. In a mix of adventure and creative modes, players control Hannah as she composes her Music Jam Video entries and learns a little something about what it means to be a true star.
“Players can also explore their own musical talents in the innovative Creative Play mode. By using the stylus and Nintendo DS touch screen, players can create and share their own original songs using lead, bass and rhythm guitars, and a complete drum kit. Up to four friends can get together and use the touch screen to play each of the different instruments and form a band via wireless connection. Once songs have been created, players can even produce music videos to share with friends. They can customize 12 different scenes, choosing from a wide array of backdrops, special effects, lighting, outfits and dance moves starring Hannah Montana.”
“Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour for Wii gives fans the chance to dance alongside Hannah Montana at venues around the world, including Tokyo, Rome and Sydney, using the innovative Wii Remote and Nunchuk style controllers to more than 15 of her hit songs. Players dance with their Wii controllers as Hannah moves on stage to ‘wow’ devoted fans and earn points to go shopping at world famous locations. Off stage, players can mix and match items from Hannah’s closet to create ensembles for her performances. Fans can also interact with familiar characters from the show including Lilly, Oliver and Jackson as Hannah embarks on her worldwide tour.”
