‘Indiana Jones’ Gets A Wii Debut
Soon, Nintendo Wii addicts will be able to step into Indy’s shoes in a quest of their own. “Indiana Jones And The Staff Of The Kings” follows the archeologist in an all new journey across the world and hits stores in late spring of 2009.
The adventure is set in 1939 where Indy must battle with his nemesis, Magnus Völler, over who can find the staff of moses. For that he’ll have travel all over the world including the jungles of Panama and San Francisco’s Chinatown.
Gamers can expect action sequences similar to Indy’s pursuit of the motorcade in “Raiders of the Lost Ark”, or the mine-cart scene featured in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom”.
Indy’s signature whip will be useful: the Wii remote functions as the iconic weapon. Gamers will experience intense chases and be able to control vehicles, including a biplane in a canyon trench.
