Activision Publishing will be bringing Little League World Series Baseball 2009 to both the Wii and DS platforms later this June, just in time for kids to settle in their living rooms comfortably with a video game of their choice. Little League World Series Baseball 2009 is a sequel to last year’s hit, and is a natural progression for the franchise as it boasts Little Leaguers and their families more features and refined, accessible gameplay.

Little League World Series Baseball 2009 is the second officially licensed Little League(R) video game for next-generation consoles, and once again it is being developed by world renowned Japanese studio NOW Production. Players will have the chance to become a Little League World(R) Series baseball Champion, or play with up to three other friends in a variety of exhibition modes. New features include a full team editor, regional tournaments, all new stadiums, new skills challenges, an expanded set of collectible content and much more. Both versions improve upon the popular motion and stylus controls, respectively, for batting and pitching.

According to Jud Rogers, Sr. Marketing Executive, Little League International, “The response to last year’s game was phenomenal, and Little League fans have been enthusiastic in giving us ideas for the 2009 version. Activision and NOW Production are the best partners imaginable and we look forward to creating the best family-friendly baseball game of all time.” No idea on how much this title will cost, but you can be sure that these will come with an E for Everybody rating.
