May 21, 2007 - Nintendo gamers are about to get some racing
exhilaration, as Destineer announces Indianapolis 500 Legends for the
Wii and Nintendo DS. Set between 1961-1971, Indianapolis 500 Legends
takes players back to the Golden Age of racing and lets them
experience the "traditions, rivalries, terrifying speeds and jaw-
dropping maneuvers of the world famous Brickyard."

"Indianapolis 500 Legends combines edge-of-your-seat Indy-style racing
with the widespread appeal and accessibility of the Nintendo Wii and
DS, making it the perfect choice for racing fans of any age and
skill," said Paul Rinde, CEO of Destineer.

In Indianapolis 500 Legends, players step into the lightning fast
boots of 30 of the sport's most revered racing legends, such as Al
Unser, A.J. Foyt and Parnelli Jones. The game makes use of both the
Wii's remote and the DS's stylus through pit-stop mini-games that
include changing tires and refueling. The game also includes a healthy
supply of unlockable Indy memorabilia.

Developed by Torus, Indianapolis 500 Legends makes its way to stores
this holiday for a suggested price of $49.99 on the Wii and $29.99 on
the DS.
