The top rated kid-targeted live action series on basic cable (who knew?) will be getting a game equivalent on Wii and DS.

 

Activision announced today a partnership with Nickelodeon. The two companies will work together to create a game based around the TV show iCarly. The game will have players helping Carly, Sam, Freddie and company to create webisodes of the show via various mini-games.

 

"iCarly is a groundbreaking show that encourages viewers to contribute content of their own," said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. "This game is a natural extension of that creativity, and allows players to interact with the characters they know and love through a variety of different ways, any time they like."

 

"In order to make a property as huge and irreverent as iCarly into a videogame, we tapped into the interactive model of the show itself," said Steve Youngwood, Nickelodeon/MTVN Kids and Family Group. "iCarly's entire premise is to allow kids and tweens to actively participate in their entertainment experience, and Activision is doing a phenomenal job in recreating that for Wii and Nintendo DS systems."
