Your stylus is now your scalpel as you take charge of the operating room and attempt to save your patients and solve a mystery in the wake of a deadly outbreak. Taking full advantage of DS touch screen, Trauma Center: Under the Knife introduces a new concept in gameplay that naturally fits the system, and yet is quirky enough that you’d except the game to be released only in Japan.

    - Feel the pressure of each tense, challenging operation!
    - Operate on a wide variety of patients in story mode, then return later and 
         try to beat your high scores!
    - Experience a compelling story with intriguing characters!
    - Use your applied skills to solve the puzzle of each surgery!
    - Detailed graphics bring the human body to life!

Trauma Center: Under the Knife is set for release this winter in North America exclusively on the DS. In fact, it was released just last week in Japan (June 16th), landing at #17 on the weekly charts and receiving a respectable 31/40 from Famitsu. It will be the first doctor-sim released on a handheld in the U.S. and, along with games like Phoenix Wright, is bringing not just innovation in game controls, but game ideas which had previously been seen only in Japan.
