''All Grown Up: Express Yourself'' for Nintendo Game Boy Advance Now Available for Girl Gamers.

CALABASAS HILLS, Calif. -- THQ(R) Inc. (NASDAQ:THQI) today announced that "All Grown Up(TM): Express Yourself" for the Nintendo(R) Game Boy(R) Advance is now available at retailers throughout North America. Based on the new Nickelodeon TV show featuring the aged-up Rugrats -- some of the past decade's most recognizable animated characters -- the game features unique elements that are expected to appeal to girl gamers.

"In 'All Grown Up: Express Yourself,' game players will embark on missions to complete tasks like writing an article for a school newspaper," said Philip Holt, senior vice president, product development, THQ. "Players can also acquire clothing and accessories, use an electronic organizer to store information about friends, customize backgrounds and music - and share it all with friends via the Game Boy Advance Link Cable."

"We are excited to release 'All Grown Up: Express Yourself' to appeal to the growing girl gamer market," said Steve Youngwood, Senior Vice President, Nickelodeon Media Products Group. "Girls have grown up with these popular characters, so this game is a great tool that allows players to strategize and interact with them in a fun and innovative way."

About "All Grown Up: Express Yourself"

In "All Grown Up," the familiar babies formerly from the "Rugrats" TV show, are now a tight-knit band of friends between the ages of 8 and 13, who face the same issues kids their age face every day: dealing with parents, peer pressure, seeking independence, grappling with identity, climbing the social ladder and surviving Jr. High School. "All Grown Up: Express Yourself" game players will complete missions based on the show to help Angelica create a good article for the school newspaper. Along the way, they can acquire different clothes, accessories, wallpaper and music, as well as unlock seven different mini-games and bonus accessories. Once players have collected these items, they can customize the main menu and trade accessories with friends using the Game Boy Advance Game Link(R) Cable. Players can also use the electronic organizer to save important information about friends, plan a schedule for the week or store personal information, which can also be swapped (private information can be blocked). An All Grown Up character test tells players which character they most resemble. Players can also input their own topics and pass the Game Boy Advance around to collect and tally votes.
