Electronic Arts announced that Need for Speed NITRO, the first ever Need for Speed title made exclusively for the Wii and Nintendo DS will ship to retailers worldwide on November 17th.

As they edge out competitors in driving finesse, their art will overtake the world, vibrantly painting the story of racing supremacy. All this combined with fresh modes, tracks and exotic real world locations make Need for Speed NITRO one of the most exciting, heart-pounding arcade racers for the Wii and Nintendo DS.
