About Bonk: Brink of Extinction, from Hudson Entertainment:
"Bonk: Brink of Extinction is an all new downloadable adventure featuring story mode with co-op play. The loveable caveman Bonk and his huge head returns to save the world from a doomsday comet on a collision course with Earth. Meanwhile the comet’s magnetic field is driving the planet’s creatures crazy and smaller bits of debris are smashing into the jungle near Bonk's home. Bonk must swim, bite, climb, jump, run and headbutt his way through jungles, deserts and volcanic caverns while earning power ups, reaching check points and gaining extra health on a perilous journey to the very center of the planet. Bonk: Brink of Extinction also features new transformations as Bonk morphs into eight different forms by eating meat or encountering Primordial Ooze."

You can currently find Bonk's games from the TurboGrafx-16 era on the Wii's Virtual Console, including: Bonk's Adventure, Bonk's Revenge, and Bonk 3: Bonk's Big Adventure. Watch for Bonk: Brink of Extinction on the Xbox 360's Xbox LIVE Arcade, PlayStation 3's PlayStation Network and Wii's WiiWare in early 2010.
