Wii Goes to the Ocean
Norwegian Cruise Lines have announced that they have the added the Wii on their American cruise ships and plan on rolling out the console on all their ships by the end of April offering another form of entertainment for kids, parents, and grandparents alike. Here’s an excerpt from the press release:
“With its active, engaging and inviting game experiences appealing to every age from kids to parents to grandparents, the Wii from Nintendo is a natural fit for Freestyle Cruising,” said Colin Veitch, NCL’s president and CEO. “With the addition of Wii to our on-board activities, we can now offer bowling, boxing, golf, tennis and baseball across the entire fleet. Cheering, yelling and high-fives will be highly encouraged.”
“Millions of people around the world continue to discover the fun of playing Wii with their friends and families,” says George Harrison, Nintendo of America’s senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications. “Norwegian Cruise Line is a great partner, as they offer us direct access to non-traditional gamers. Our partnership reinforces how Wii’s social phenomenon continues to grow, from the centerpiece of gaming parties, to a workout supplement, to a fun facet of vacation cruises.”
The Wii will be in main areas of the ship as well as in “kid only” sections. NCL says that they will hold game tournaments and other forms of even more interactive entertainment around the already gamer friendly console.
