Takayuki Nakamura Composing For Wii Game “PictureBook Games: Pop-Up Pursuit”

We recently got word that Takayuki Nakamura, who is best known for his recent work on the Lumines series, is composing the music for this strange-looking Wii title, PictureBook Games: Pop-Up Pursuit. Click the link to check out a trailer, featuring some of Nakamura-san’s music, courtesy of Nintendo. The game is a party game in the same vein as the Mario Party series, except it’s a WiiWare title that you can play online. The music does not seem to hold the typical electronic style that we expect from Nakamura, but it’s still sounding pretty cool.

No word on an official soundtrack release yet, as the game itself is only scheduled for a rough “Fall 2009” release. But we thought you’d like to know what Nakamura is up to these days.
