Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends announced for DS, new Wii title in the oven

While we’re still having nightmares about angering Mama because I overcooked a Japanese Hamburg steak, Majesco have gone and announced Cooking Mama 2: Dinner With Friends for the Nintendo DS. In addition to containing a slew of brand new recipes, Dinner with Friends also includes several new modes of play.

While the game appears to stick with the basic formula of cooking mini-games, players are now challenged with cooking for picky, ungrateful friends who will be tasting and judging each meal. Additionally, a new Challenge Mode will let up to four people compete in a wireless cook off with only one came card. Customizable kitchens and a customizable Mama, along with a Decoration Mode tops things off (Get it? Decoration? Top things off?).

Majesco also reveals that a new Cooking Mama Wii title is in the works, but reveals no more details at this time. Just a guess, but we’re pretty sure it’s going to involve cooking.
