TSUNAMI VISUAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC., ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF
AIR RAID - This Is Not A Drill! "

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - December 16, 2002, Fremont, California.

Tsunami Visual Technologies, Inc. today announced the release of Air Raid
- This Is Not A Drill! ™, their newest game title for the TsuMo" multi-game
motion system.

Licensed from Made By KIDDIES, Inc., and adapted for coin-op play by Made
By KIDDIES, Inc., and Tsunami Visual Technologies, Inc., Air Raid - This Is Not
A Drill! " debuted at IAAPA 2002 in Orlando to an overwhelming response that
had attendees lining up to play throughout the four-day event. Initial testing
has proven that Air Raid is a hit with the players and another #1 title in
Tsunami's growing list of top arcade games.

Air Raid - This Is Not A Drill! " puts you right in the middle of a realistic air and
sea battle. Your adrenaline will be pumping when you feel the awesome
firepower of your anti-aircraft gun while countless waves of planes, ships and
submarines try to send you to a watery grave. You soon realize that your
ultimate mission is just to survive!

"When I first saw Air Raid, I knew that it would make a great arcade game,
especially when teamed with the TsuMo™ motion system," said Brian Duke,
VP of Sales and Marketing for Tsunami Visual Technologies Inc. "It is another
example of a great game being made even better by allowing players to
experience everything they see happening on the screen. For a game with
such depth, it is surprisingly simple to play and simple to understand. When
combined with the motion of TsuMo™, it creates entertainment that you simply
cannot get at home. While Air Raid carries a yellow label rating, the action is
more intense than any other game and makes a person feel like they are in
the middle of all the bone-jarring action. It is definitely a game that will be
acceptable in any location and appeals to the same players that made our
Beach Head 2000 and Beach Head 2000 Special Edition a #1 hit."

"Our partnership with Tsunami reflects the perfect amalgamation between
software and hardware technology," said Christopher Lee Executive Producer
for Made By KIDDIES, Inc. "Even though Air Raid was not developed
particularly with TsuMo™ in mind, it turned out that it was the ideal fit for it.
This symbiosis enhances not only the game play, but also the actual
experience of playing Air Raid. Compared to similar arcade platforms, the
players are engaged to such extreme that they transcend beyond the
limitations of the screen. Made By KIDDIES, Inc., is excited to join Tsunami
Visual Technologies, Inc., in its continued effort to bring unique and addictive
products to the coin-up market, and we are confident that this is not the last
time the arcade industry will hear of our successful collaboration."

Air Raid is also the first video game ever to incorporate Crazy Talk" into the
game play. Developed by Reallusion Inc. of San Jose, CA for use on home
PC's, Crazy Talk™ allows any picture or photo to be animated and actually
speak to players. Now, instead of using written onscreen instructions (which
are seldom read by players) to explain game controls and objectives in Air
Raid, Crazy Talk™ brings Naval Commanders to life who verbally pass
important hints and information on to players in a highly entertaining and
unique approach.

Air Raid is now available for purchase in dedicated TsuMo units or as a low-
cost software upgrade for existing units through any authorized Tsunami
distributor. For more information or the name of an authorized distributor near
