Sega Mobile, a division of Sega.com, Inc. dedicated to bringing Sega content to the mobile market in North America, has formed a strategic alliance with Sprint (NYSE: FON, PCS), which operates the largest all-digital, nationwide network and is the fastest growing wireless carrier. Sega will leverage its popular franchises and extensive gaming legacy to deliver the best in mobile gaming content for the highly anticipated Sprint Third Generation Network launching nationwide this summer. Sega Mobile will bring one of the first full-color mobile games to Sprint wireless customers with the launch of the hit title Monkey Ball. Sega’s simian superstars are rolling straight onto your cell phone in SEGA Monkey Ball from Sega Mobile.

The basic idea is simple enough: just guide your spherically-encased monkey to the goal line while collecting bananas along the way. Ah, but gravity is a harsh mistress, and if you tilt too far, you’ll send your monkey to the great void below. The same precarious action you expect from Monkey Ball is here in glistening 2D, along with some all-new features, including different terrains, wind, and black bananas that will redefine the term “shock the monkey.” So follow the bouncing, crashing, and plummeting ball, and start monkeying around with your wireless phone, Sega-style.

• The Nintendo GameCube hit comes straight ballin’ to cell phones.
• 15 levels filled with different gameplay elements.
• New obstacles including wind, various terrains, and yucky black bananas.
• Auto-save feature lets you suspend play at any time.
• Painstakingly rendered monkeys — you’d think you were watching
• PBS! Made for Sprint vision-enabled phones.

“The Sprint Third Generation Network enables the transformation of mobile games from the text-based experience of today to a graphic, full-color experience of console-brand games available through Sprint on its 3G-enabled PCS phones,” said Chip Novick, vice president of consumer marketing for Sprint’s PCS division. “When Sprint launches recognizable games like Monkey Ball from a top provider like Sega on its 3G Network this summer, you will inevitably see more and more Sprint customers moving their phones from their ears to their eyes as they get a little game action on the go.”
