Now, some 17 years later, Nintendo is at it again, forming a partnership with the creators of a new teen spy movie, Stormbreaker.The film is based on the first novel of Anthony Horowitz's popular Alex Rider series. As the youngest contestant in a Super Mario Galaxy tournament newest recruit of MI6's Special Operations Division, and armed with a modified Power Glove Nintendo DS, Alex is prepared to take on his uncle's killer, one of the most dangerous assassins in the world. Stormbreaker debuts in Europe this summer.
