Majesco’s ‘Cooking Mama’ for Nintendo DS Receives Industry Accolades at E3

Majesco Entertainment Company, an innovative provider of digital entertainment products and content, recently received several industry accolades for Cooking Mama, a unique new Nintendo DS™ game that debuted at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), the video game industry’s annual trade show.

Cooking Mama was awarded several honors including: “Most Innovative DS Design of E3 2006” from leading video game website IGN; and GameDaily’s “Nod Award,” which called Cooking Mama “a fun DS game that uses the stylus to near perfection.”

“We are very pleased with the initial reaction to Cooking Mama since this fun and addictive title deserves attention,” said Ken Gold, vice president of Marketing, Majesco Entertainment. “Cooking Mama is just one outstanding product within Majesco’s diverse product lineup we will be introducing this year.”

Cooking Mama challenges players to use the stylus as a master kitchen tool to cook 76 real world dishes ranging from pepperoni pizza to cabbage meat rolls. Under Mama’s watchful eye, players must first prepare ingredients, then combine, cook and present the final meal all via the touch screen. Players can even “cool down” dishes by blowing into the DS microphone and share their favorite recipes with friends via the DS wireless link.

Developed by Taito, Cooking Mama will be available in September for a suggested retail price of $19.99. More information can be found online at www.majescoentertainment.com.
