Publisher 2K Play has announced that a new entry in its highly successful Carnival Funfair Games Series is in development at Cat Daddy Games for both Wii and DS.

New Carnival Funfair Games features over 30 new games including Pitch-A-Plate, Bottle Stand-Up, Fish Bowl Bounce, Gold Rush Alley Ball, Bumper Cars and House.
It will also be compatible with Nintendo’s Wii Motion Plus, while the DS version will support the DSi’s integrated camera.
Carnival Funfair Games has made a special connection with over six million fans around the globe,” Steve Lux, vice president of business development for 2K Play stated.
No other interactive entertainment product so seamlessly integrates youthful memories with the fun and technical innovation required to bring a virtual day at the carnival to life.”
