EA announces NCAA Football 09, Mascot Challenge contest for Wii - Image 1 


Electronic Arts has announced that Nintendo Wii owners will soon be experiencing the fun and adrenaline of college football in their systems as NCAA Football 09 is scheduled to grace the platform.

Aside from the announcement, EA is also encouraging fans to cast their votes to help decide who will be the franchise's mascot this year. Candidates will be chosen from NCAA FBS or what was formally known as Division 1-A.

Nintendo of America VP of Licensing Steve Singer had this to say, "Nintendo is excited to have NCAA Football 09 available for Wii. In my family, NCAA Football has always been a family event. Now with the Family Play mode from EA we can share the football experience all year long."

For those not familiar with the said Family Play mode, it is actually a multiplayer, social experience that allows novice users to compete against advanced players and still enjoy success.

Regarding the said poll, voting has already started and will end on March 6. Each fan can vote for one mascot per day. The winner of the contest will be announced on March 14 and will be the cover of the Wii version of NCAA Football 09.
