It was released in Japan for Wii on March 8, 2007, January 29, 2008 in North America, and March 14, 2008 in the PAL region. Part of the Bomberman franchise, it is the fifth game in the Bomberman Land series and the console counterpart to the portable version released for the PlayStation Portable later in the same month. Plot Relaxing on the beach, Bomberman gets an invitation to enter an amusement park called "Bomberman Land", which he accepts. Upon arrival, he finds that his friends Cool Black and Cute Pink have also gotten invitations, as well as Giant Gold and his teammates of Team Gold, Kid Blue and Bookworm Green. After all the contestants arrive, the Director appears and tells them all about the park, the events and the rankings, and wishes them all the best of luck. The Champion appears on the big screen and tells the contestants that he has taken over the park as well as taking the Director hostage. In time, the once fun land will become a place of chaos, so it is up to Bomberman to play the different events, win as many pieces as possible, and dethrone the Champion. Gameplay There are over forty attractions to be played in the differing Zones in the park. Before they can be played, the attractions can be accessed in Training, in which they are divided into five difficulty levels. There is no limit to how many times the player can redo the Training sessions if the player fails.
