2K Play and Nickelodeon have announced a wide-ranging slate of video games based on popular Nick Jr. programs that will arrive in stores this fall. Dora the Explorer, Nickelodeon’s flagship preschool brand, will debut on the Nintendo Wii in Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Snow Princess; Diego returns in an all-new adventure, Go, Diego, Go!: Great Dinosaur Rescue; and The Wonder Pets! premieres exclusively on Nintendo DS in The Wonder Pets!: Save the Animals!

“We are delighted to introduce our top preschool properties, Dora, Diego and The Wonder Pets! on these popular gaming platforms for families,” said Dave Williams, senior vice president and general manager, Nickelodeon Kids and Family Games Group. “By combining Nickelodeon’s kid expertise with 2K Play’s creativity, we have created games that allow preschoolers to develop their playing skills and turn up the fun.”

In Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Snow Princess, players join Dora, Boots and Pirate Piggy on an adventure to save the Magic Snowy Forest from the spell of a witch. Over 12 unique motions are used with the Wii-mote to build snowmen, paddle a canoe, steer a dogsled and ride a Pegasus. Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Snow Princess will be available for Wii, DS and PlayStation 2.
