Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2010 is set on a rugged, Pacific jungle island. Players will enter a Hell Week-style boot camp filled with many new features and workout modes, including more accurate motion tracking and a calendar system.

Both Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2010 for Wii(TM) and Jillian Michaels' Pocket Trainer 2010 for Nintendo DS(TM) feature the celebrity fitness trainer, life coach, and star of the popular television series The Biggest Loser as she leads players through high-intensity, one-on-one workouts while providing direct feedback and motivation to yield real results.

"The success of Jillian's debut game underscores the strength of her brand and desire of the Wii audience to work out with a fitness icon," said Jesse Sutton, Chief Executive Officer, Majesco. "To keep up with today's on-the-go lifestyles, we're launching a portable game in conjunction with an enhanced Wii sequel so players can choose how best to integrate fitness into their daily routines."

"Jillian is always exploring ways to improve the customer's experience," added Giancarlo Chersich, Chief Executive Officer, Empowered Media LLC. "She wanted both Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2010 and Jillian Michaels' Pocket Trainer 2010 to be the two best fitness video games on the market, from game responsiveness to player customization to improved workout routines and beyond."
