In a surprise press conference last night, Sony announced some shocking news for their Gran Turismo franchise. For the first time ever, Sony is teaming up with Nintendo to bring their popular Gran Turismo series to the 3DS. The new 3DS version, entitled Granny Turismo, will be launched along side the 3DS XL. Granny Turismo will also be available in a special bundle pack with a limited edition 3DS XL, available only at Elder-Beerman.
The 3DS exclusive will feature an all-new line-up of the hottest cars around. Three of the cars to be featured in Granny Turismo were announced at Sonys press conference last night:
Lincoln Town Car
Cadillac CTS
Buick Roadmaster
The game play will be slightly altered from the previous Gran Turismo titles to appeal to the target market of the 3DS XL. Instead of racing, the player will drive the car to the supermarket, pharmacy, post office, and a variety of other exciting places to complete their errands! You must return to your garage before it gets dark, as it is impossible to see the road after sunset. The cars in Granny Turismo will have a maximum driving speed of 45 mph on highways. Players will also have the option to drive on the wrong side of the road without receiving a penalty.
You grandchildren will be in awe of your sweet ride!
The limited edition Granny Turismo 3DS XL, available exclusively at Elder-Beerman, will feature a built-in picture frame to display your favorite photos of your grandchildren. By reserving your Granny Turismo 3DS XL bundle, you will also receive a limited edition Granny Turismo pill organizer as a pre-order bonus.
