CAPCOM® JOINS FORCES WITH CAMELOT TO DEVELOP WE LOVE GOLF!™ FOR THE WII™

Immersive Golfing Experience and Flexible Tee Times Thanks to the Wii Remote™

SAN MATEO, Calif — Sept. 14, 2007 ¾ Capcom ® , a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced a partnership with Camelot Software Planning to develop We Love Golf!™ for the Wii™ home video game system. Best known for developing Hot Shots Golf and the Mario Golf series, Camelot has a proven track record of creating entertaining, successful sports video games. This latest title transforms the Wii Remote™ into a virtual set of golf clubs, creating the most immersive golfing experience available off the greens. Capcom plans to release We Love Golf! in North America in 2008.

"Camelot's pedigree in this genre, coupled with Capcom's creative expertise, is a virtual hole in one," said Nique Fajors, vice president, marketing, Capcom Entertainment. "Combining an already great game concept with the exciting innovations possible on the Wii is a winning formula for an amazing experience for gaming and golfing fans."

We Love Golf! presents a realistic golfing experience with a fresh new spin, incorporating the Wii Remote's unique motion-sensing functionality. Players will use the controller to choose clubs, line up shots, swing and even add a touch fade or draw with a flick of the wrist. Just as on a real course, gauging wind conditions, correct club selection and careful reading of the greens are all essential for victory. A variety of game modes, multiple characters, and unlockable content will provide endless hours of putting heaven.
