The Nintendo Wii is going to get yet another dance title, which is Dance Sensation! courtesy of Majesco. With Dance Sensation!, young girls are about to live out their dance fantasy on their living room stage while performing and training their routines in a quartet of different styles: Hip-Hop, Jazz, Ballet, and Salsa. According to Gui Karyo, Executive Vice President of Operations, Majesco Entertainment, “Dance is an incredibly popular activity for young girls yet there is an absence of dance products available for this demographic. Dance Sensation! was specifically designed for this audience and its combination of dance styles lets female players perform and actually learn real dance moves as they play.”

Becoming a skilled dancer doesn’t just take talent; it takes dedication and hard work to be the best! In Dance Sensation!, players hit the studio with their teacher to practice for their upcoming stage performances. Across Hip Hop, Jazz, Ballet and Salsa, players use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to control their on-screen dancer as she perfects more than 160 real motion-captured dance moves that get progressively more complex. After studio training in front of a mirror, it will be time to raise the curtain and turn on the spotlights! Players will perform in recitals in a variety of venues, from local auditoriums to the Broadway stage. No recital is complete without a glamorous presentation. Girls can customize their dancer with a variety of costumes and unlockable hairstyles. Creative play also extends to the Dance Workshop Mode that lets aspiring dancers choreograph their own custom routines that they can record and share with friends. In addition, competitive players can dance with or compete against another player in Multiplayer Mode. Featuring licensed music tracks and Wii Motion Plus support for more accurate motion based play, Dance Sensation! lets girls be sensational dancers whether they’re new to dance or train regularly.

There is no word on pricing, but we’re looking at an April 2010 release date for the Wii.
