Prince of Persia SNES included with The Forgotten Sands on Wii
Which Prince of Persia game features “superb graphic detail and incredibly fluid animation” and “more thrills than a saber duel with a thousand sultans”? If you answered, “Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands,” you’d … well, you’d probably be right. But that text first appeared on the SNES box of 1992’s Prince of Persia, an enhanced port of Jordan Mechner’s original vizier vanquish-’em-up.
Nintendo announced at its San Francisco media event today that the SNES game will be included in the Wii version of Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, which is slated for release on May 18. Earlier this month, rumors suggested that Prince of Persia Classic — a direct remake of the original game, initially released on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network — would be included in The Forgotten Sands. Instead, Wii owners get classic Prince of Persia exclusively.
Don’t fret too much about the platforms, though. You’re probably in for more thrills than a saber duel with a thousand sultans no matter what.

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands to continue ‘Sands of Time’ series
Ubisoft has just announced a new Prince of Persia — but it’s not a sequel to 2008’s polarizing adventure (if desired, add unhappy emoticons to sentence). Instead, Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands will continue the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time trilogy series, complete with “many of the fan-favorite elements” and “new gameplay innovations that gamers have come to expect from the Prince of Persia brand.” Oh, and an accompanying film!
You can catch the game’s premiere trailer on Spike TV’s Video Game Awards on Saturday, December 12, 2009 at 8 p.m. EST. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is scheduled for release on “consoles and handhelds” in May 2010.
