With the release of DS game Ninjatown a week away, you can now download a demo of the game from your Nintendo Wii. You’ll find the demo in the Nintendo Channel, which you probably forgot existed if you’re anything like me. The demo will allow you to check out the first six maps of the game (out of the 36 that will be available in the completed game). If that’s not enough for you, here is a bunch of new screenshots for the game. You can read the full press release below.

SouthPeak’s Ninjatown is just a week away, but for gamers who don’t want to wait, the demo is now available as a free download via the Nintendo Channel (in North America) on Wii. Assume the role of Ol’ Master Ninja and lead your Ninja troops against the invading Wee Devils in an all-out battle to determine the fate of Ninjatown.
 
The demo of Ninjatown includes the first six maps from the game. Players can get a glimpse at the level of depth and strategy in the game as they fight against the Wee Devils with just a sampling of the Ninjas and special abilities. In the full retail version of the game, there will be a total of thirty-six maps, and over a dozen abilities and tokens to unleash on Mr. Demon and the evil masses.
 
For those who don’t know, the process to download the Ninjatown demo is simple: First make sure you are opted in on your Wii to send data to Nintendo, then select the demo from the Ninjatown info page on Nintendo Channel, and the Wii will instruct you to turn on your DS and select “Download Play” from the system menu.
 
Players can also visit http://create.ninjatown.com to create their own Ninjas with the Wee Ninjatron, which can then be shared with their friends via Facebook, MySpace and more. Ninjatown is rated E for Everyone.
