Jambo! Safari Rolling Onto Wii And DS

The Wii is the console to own for Sega arcade ports. House of the Dead 2, Ghost Squad, and soon Jambo! Safari are on the Wii.

In Jambo! Safari players drive a Land Rover and lasso animals. The Wii version adds new features like ranger customization and motion controlled lasso tossing. You actually swing a remote tethered to a nunchuck like a lasso. I wonder how that’s going to work out…

Since Jambo! Safari Animal Rescue is a Wii game it has mini-games such as Ostrich Racing and Meerkat Madness. The DS adaptation has stylus control, uses both screens, and that’s all we know about it. Perhaps, Sega will toss in a pet trading or safari animal care mini-games.

Jambo! Safari Animal Rescue is slated to come out in late 2009 which sounds like November or December.
