'Napoleon Dynamite' Video Game. Sweet!

by Tim Stevens on July 16, 2007 at 11:01 AM

Napoleon Dynamite Strutting to PSP, DSCrave is showing off a game that's been a long, long time coming. Napoleon Dynamite is finally making an appearance in a video game and it's a suitably bizarre one to compliment the generally bizarre film. The game, due out for Sony's PSP and Nintendo's DS handhelds, is basically a collection of silly little mini games that are, on their own, fun but not really all that captivating. However, as in games like 'Wario Ware' and 'Rayman: Raving Rabbids,' when you combine enough of these little diversions together and you can create a fairly addictive experience.

The DS version will ship with 24 games while the PSP will have 30, making it the one to get. The games are all connected to the movie in some way, like one that has you flinging lasagna at Tina the llama (while she tries to spit it back at you). Another pits you against Uncle Rico in a football tossing contest. And, of course, you'll also make Napoleon dance -- 'Dance Dance Revolution'-style naturally. The games are simple but fun and all share the same big headed cutout visual style that's equally cool.

'Napoleon Dynamite' doesn't have a firm release date yet, but fans of the film will definitely want to check this totally sweet game out whenever it shows up on store shelves.
