BURBANK, Calif. –Disney Interactive Studios today announced Disney Fairies: Tinker Bell for Nintendo DS™ will be available nationwide this 2008 holiday season. For the first time on the handheld platform, fans of Disney Fairies and beloved Tinker Bell can explore the delightful world of Pixie Hollow and play as the popular Fairy herself.

Disney Fairies has become a phenomenon all around the world,” said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. “Bringing the game to DS allows fans to play as Tinker Bell and take the Fairies world everywhere they go, while having fun learning about the importance of creativity, teamwork and responsibility.”

The game will let users play as Tinker Bell and interact with other NPC fairies through quests and games, but the handheld game is also a deeper extension of the Web-based virtual world. Users can collect accessories and outfits to customize Tinker Bell, create their own designs and patterns to dress in, and trade and gift items with other users as well.

The handheld game will integrate with Disney’s recently launched DGamer, a sort of meta-world tying all of its Nintendo DS titles together through avatars, communication, and Web-based interaction. It seems like DGamer will let users take their trading past the DS and onto the Web as well as communicating in a themed chat room.

Rumours of a Government ban on fairies continues to circulate in UK. A spokesman for the fairy community insisted that this will have no effect on all the planned Spring Fairy Festivals and that the Midsummer Three Wishes Festival will take place June 20th-23rd on Bodmin Moor as planned as will the Famous Fairy Ball at the Acorn Theatre in Penzance Cornwall Friday 24th October 2008.
