A few days ago, 505 Games announced that a follow-up to DS cookathon Cooking Mama would be heading to Europe early next year for the Wii and DS. Today, we’ve learned that US-based publisher Majesco will be releasing both titles here in the states.

The new DS title, Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends, will feature 80 new recipes, over 150 mini-games, and a new tasting mode as well as a single card wireless multiplayer mode to challenge other players to a fabulous cook off.

A Wii version is also on the cards, however details have yet to be released.

Majesco Announces ‘Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends’

Hot on the heels of her debut title’s success, Mama is back in the kitchen as Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of digital entertainment products and content, today announced Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends for the Nintendo DS™. With several new game modes and brand new recipes, Cooking Mama 2 has all the ingredients of an interactive smorgasbord. Recipe details for the new Wii™ home video game system version will be announced at a later date.

“Mama’s genuine appeal coupled with a truly unique and fun game concept made the original Cooking Mama a best seller that garnered several industry accolades,” said Ken Gold, vice president of Marketing. “In Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends, we’re building on that success with all new recipes, a new tasting mode and multiplayer wireless play that will entice fans to keep on cookin’.”

In Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends, players use the stylus as the ultimate kitchen utensil in 150 different cooking mini-games across 80 new recipes that range from cultural delicacies like shark fin soup to the all-American apple pie. However, this time around players actually have hungry mouths to feed since nine finicky dinner friends will be tasting and judging each meal! A new Challenge Mode lets up to four friends compete in a wireless cook off with only one game card, while players can customize their kitchen—and even Mama!—in the fresh Decoration Mode.
