For close on two decades now, members of the male population have been left puzzling over their female counterparts fascination with the music from the popular high school musical Grease. And while just the mention of the word Grease has no doubt just caused the words of ‘Greased Lightning’ and ‘You’re the One that I Want’ to come flooding back into your mind, publisher 505 Games has decided to capitalize on the success of this iconic 50s’ themed film by teaming up with Paramount Digital Entertainment to bring Danny Zuko and Sandy Olsen to the videogame arena for the first time.

Having snagged the global publishing rights, 505 Games will be bringing Grease the videogame to the Nintendo DS and Wii. The Grease videogame will allow players to sing and dance in the shoes once filled by John Travolta and Oliver Newton John in the iconic film that was released in 1978.

According to the press release “the game will take full advantage of the Nintendo Wii’s motion-sensing controls and microphone, and the DS’s touch screen to create exciting gameplay for casual and family gamers eager to experience Grease in a new medium.”

John Kavanagh, Senior Vice President of Video Games for Paramount Digital Entertainment, believes that “Grease is the ideal opportunity to reach a broad gaming audience who love to sing, dance and have fun with a party-style game.”
