News is reaching us that 70's cult classic is to get the gaming treatment on both the DS and Wii thanks to 505 Games.

Developed in the UK by Zoe Mode, and co-published by Paramount Digital Entertainment, the game will allow players to sing and dance playing as both of the films stars: Danny and Sandy. The game will also take advantage of the platforms unique features with the DS relying on the touch-screen interface and microphones whilst motion control will feature in the Wii version.

We'd expect the game to be released before the years end but we'll have more details very soon.
