2K Sports announced today that NBA 2K10, the
latest edition of the popular NBA 2K franchise, is now available for the Wii
system. While offering all the same exciting gameplay features as its console
counterparts, NBA 2K10 for Wii provides fans with an authentic simulation
experience with deep career and franchise modes, along with the opportunity to
compete online against friends. NBA 2K10, available for the first time on Wii,
this season delivers the most realistic, stylistic, and feature-rich simulation
experience ever available in the NBA 2K franchise.
"We’re thrilled to bring NBA 2K10 to the Wii this
year – it’s an incredibly fun and fully-featured title that will appeal to a new
group of fans," said Greg Thomas, senior vice president of sports development
for 2K. "With easily accessible Wii controls and the opportunity to be active
while playing, NBA 2K10 lets players step up their virtual game on the hardwood
court this holiday season."
NBA 2K10 game play features include:
NBA Today:
Real world matchups, news and stats automatically stream right into the game.
NBA Today keeps commentary and overlays fresh and up to date based on what is
really happening in the NBA.
My Player:
Giving fans what they have long requested, the all-new My Player career mode
allows fans to create their own ultimate NBA player and guide his every career
move. Players start as an undrafted rookie in the Summer Circuit, and if their
skills become advanced enough, they may get an invite to participate in an NBA
team’s training camp or play in the NBA Development League. The road to being an
NBA star is long and hard, and each player has the opportunity to create their
own unique experience making it to the League.
The Association:
The Association strives to be the best franchise mode in sports video games.
Full incorporation of the NBA Development League and the ability to control all
30 NBA teams at once, including restricted free agency, real-time practice, an
all-new player progression system, and a host of other enhancements gives NBA
2K10 players the tools to rule the court and lead their team to victory.
Crews:
Crews, a new online feature, allows dedicated online players to round up their
friends and build the ultimate squad using either created players from My Player
or an actual NBA team. Players can go online and challenge other Crews for
bragging rights and progression points as they try to climb their way to the top
of the Crew leaderboard rankings.
Signature Play:
Signature Play pulls together all of NBA 2K’s player Signature Styles and adds
in all-new Signature Tendencies and facial expressions, creating NBA 2K10 teams
that play and react like their real life counterparts for an unbelievably
realistic NBA experience. Improved easy-to-use offensive controls for dribbling
and post game let players pull off ankle breaking IsoMotion moves and dominate
from the perimeter to the paint. Gamers can shut down teams like never before
with innovative defensive controls that allow you to shadow your opponent’s
every move, deny position off-ball, and even select different approaches to
contest shots.
Developed by 2K Sports’ Visual Concepts studio,
NBA 2K10 is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB and now available for Wii, Xbox
360, PlayStation3, PlayStation2, PSP, and Windows PC. For more information,
