'''Need for Speed: Nitro''' is the fourteenth installment in the [[:Category:Need for Speed|Need for Speed series]]. It was announced in January 2009 as part of a three-game announcement that included [[Need for Speed: Shift]] and [[Need for Speed: World]]. In contrast to Need for Speed: Shift, Nitro is the first game from the ground up to be made exclusively for the Wii and Nintendo DS. Nitro incorporates [[Burnout]]'s drifting style and the use of nitrous hence the title of the game. Even though there isn't any online support, there is a multiplayer mode and a co-op racing mode for the first time. The Wii console has five control set-ups available for you to use.
In contrast to [[Need for Speed: Shift]], Need for Speed: Nitro is the first game made from the ground up to be made exclusively to Nintendo Wii and DS. Like [[Need for Speed: Undercover]], this game is an arcade racing game incorporated with [[Burnout]]'s drifting and the use of nitrous which is the prime attribute to winning the race. However there won't be any online support but will have a great multiplayer experience with co-op racing for the first time and multiple control choices on the Wii console.
