Atari is back yet again, and this time round they are proud to announce that the award-winning N+ titles is complete for both the Nintendo DS Lite and Sony PSP platforms. This is the successor to the hugely popular and successful flash ninja game known as N, and N+ will suruely have some pretty high standards to live up to. After all, it had already garnered the “Best in Show” for PSP system from Gaming Excellence and “Best Handheld” from Blast Magazine at 2008’s E3,. Interested parties will be able to pick up the title on the 26th this month in North America for $19.99 a pop.

According to David Geudelekian, Producer, Atari, Inc., “N+ has taken its amazing acrobatics and simple-but-fast gameplay and has clearly become a standout hit, winning top award recognition at this year’s E3. With an impressive set of new features including wireless multiplayer, downloadable content and over 200 levels exclusive to each version, gamers will be able to settle, once and for all, who is the greatest ninja.”

N+ offers equal parts platformer and action gameplay with incredibly fluid animation, fast action, amazing acrobatics and instant playability. N+ embodies the same brisk pick-up-and-play style that has endeared gamers worldwide and improves on the adored flash game with downloadable content, multiplayer components and a built-in level editor. New impressive features like cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes and level sharing over the ad-hoc PSP system and wireless Nintendo DS connections will expand upon the gameplay possibilities that have made the original flash game a sensation. Complimenting the game’s ‘old-school’ feel, the control layout uses directional buttons and one of the face buttons to jump and move. With the built-in level editor, players can use the stylus to design maps and share them with friends or the world and downloadable content will continue to add exciting elements long after the game’s initial release.

Well, $20 won’t get you much these days, so there is no harm in picking this up at the end of this month.
