EDISON, N.J., June 10, 2008 - Build, trade and destroy, as Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of video games for the mass market, today shipped Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy for Wii. Developed by Budcat Creations, Blast Works is a side-scrolling 2D shooter based on Kenta Cho's popular online game Tumiki Fighters. Featuring multiple game content editors and the innovative Blast Works Depot website where gamers can post and trade custom content worldwide, Blast Works is now available in retail outlets nationwide.

In addition to 15 missions included in the basic game, multiple Blast Works Editors allow players to construct their own shapes, ships, levels, enemies and bullet patterns. Additionally, players can assign sound FX, movement patterns, and more to their unique creations. Also, for the first time ever on Wii, Blast Works lets gamers trade their unique content directly with friends or share their content globally over BlastWorksDepot.com via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and WiiConnect24. This website allows players to upload and download community-developed content with other users anytime from anywhere for endless gameplay possibilities!
Blast Works features multiplayer gameplay for up to four people and a retro graphic style that gives it wide appeal for classic and brand new shooter fans alike. To top it off, players have the ability to unlock four Kenta Cho games: rRootage, Gunroar, Torus Trooper and Tumiki Fighters.
