San Mateo, Calif. – Sep. 8, 2010 – Family party game Oops! Prank Party has gone gold and will be shipping on Oct. 5, 2010 exclusively on Wii TM for $19.99. The game, published by Hudson Entertainment, the North and South American subsidiary of HUDSON SOFT, continues Hudson’s legacy of party games and features 100 brain-teasing, puzzle-solving, reflex-testing party games.

“Players can play through an incredibly fun, smart mix of 100 games that will liven up any party or family gathering,” said Mike Pepe, director of marketing for Hudson Entertainment. “And at just $19.99, it’s a great value and consumers will definitely get their money’s worth.”

Oops! Prank Party even makes losing fun with embarrassing costumes and pranks for the mini-game winner to assign to any losing player, who will be stuck in the silly costume for the duration of the game. With unlockable levels and one of the most robust avatar creators in a party game, players can put their personality directly into the game, including more than 500 avatar customization elements.

Oops! Prank Party features four play modes to get the party started: Master mode invites up to three players to try and best the master computer player. Board mode puts a spin on gameplay by placing players on one of seven boards in a race for points. Free Play mode gives players total reign to build their own competition from unlocked games while Trial mode seeks to find the best competitor in different game mixes.
