Hunt for "Pirates of the Caribbean" treasure w/ DS at Disneyland

Wolfwood | May 22, 2007 | Other | DS

The licensed video games for Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End have launched today ahead of the motion picture release and to celebrate, Disney Interactive Studios announces a special wifi campaign for visitors of Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida and Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. Owners of the DS version of the game can go "treasure hunting" at Pirates of the Caribbean theme parks to unlock special bonuses for their games; what guests have to do is search for the special wifi hotspots they can connect to with their DS consoles. Then they can enjoy the exclusive downloads, available for a limited time.

Beginning May 22 with the release of the video game, Disney park guests who bring their Nintendo DS and a copy of the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End DS video game with them during their visit can download new video game content at specific "X-marks-the-spot" hotspots hidden near the Pirates of the Caribbean attractions. This download unlocks new content such as unlimited health and "savvy" as well as fun extras, including additional costumes. This special content is only available to Disney park visitors and can be accessed with a Nintendo DS.

The Nintendo DS Download Program for Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is available free of charge to any park guest carrying a Nintendo DS system that contains a copy of the video game. For Nintendo DS owners without a copy of the new video game, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End will be available for purchase in stores at both parks. The program will begin on May 22 and is scheduled to run through Labor Day.

The movie, IMO looks a lot better than the game. A DS version of Pirates is okay, but a GCN or an Xbox 360 version would be awesome.

Still a great series, I'd give it an 8.

I really doubt that somebody is going to go all the way to Disneyland just to do that.. sounds like a fun idea though.

As for the game itself, I'll pass.

Meh, well, sounds like a good idea at least. Doubt I'll go all the way to Disneyworld just to see it, but ah well.

I haven't see PotC: At world's end yet, but from what I've heard it's the best yet.
