Club Penguin Game Day Sleds onto Wii

Moms and dads who want to share the fun and creativity of their child's favorite, snow-covered virtual world can now get in on all the icy action with the launch of Club Penguin Game Day! for Wii.
Based on the environment, characters and storylines of the popular online playground Club Penguin (http://www.clubpenguin.com), Club Penguin Game Day! includes a range of single and multi-player sports and performance events designed to challenge and engage every member of the family.
"There are lots of parents who want to experience what their kids have come to know and love about the virtual world of Club Penguin, but it's easier to gather everyone in the family room than around the computer in the home office," says Lane Merrifield, co-founder of Club Penguin and executive vice president of Disney Online Studios. "With Club Penguin Game Day!, we hope to give families new ways to connect, be active and have fun together."
Club Penguin Game Day! features a collection of 12, all-new Wii exclusive games, including Puffle Paddle, Dance Off and Sumo Smash.  Players create and customize a penguin, choose a team color and try to conquer challenges in each of the six zones on the island. The team that takes over the most territory wins.
The game includes innovative ways to connect with the virtual world, allowing players to transfer their penguins, achievements, coins, and exclusive unlockable items to their online accounts on clubpenguin.com. Players can also interact with familiar characters from the virtual world, including Rookie, Aunt Arctic, and Gary the Gadget Guy.
Another feature lets players transfer their customized penguins via their Wii Remote to a friend's Wii for use in game play. Once back on the original console, high scores, coins and customization items earned will merge with the player's profile.
