Description
Nintendo is preparing for the launch of the Wii console and has now released the list of U.S. events that will take place on or around the launch date in the U.S.
From New York to Los Angeles and untold places in between, shoppers won't have to wait long to be the first to buy Nintendo's revolutionary new Wii video game console when it goes on sale at the stroke of midnight the morning of Sunday, Nov. 19.
Toys R Us Times Square in Manhattan and GameStop at Universal CityWalk in Los Angeles will host official Nintendo midnight launch events to satiate rabid fans who can't wait to get their hands on Wii. The events will feature live music and entertainment, fun, games, special guests from Nintendo – and a countdown to the moment that will change the way video games are played forever. Other retailers nationwide are expected to hold their own midnight launch events, so consumers should check with their local retail stores that sell video games.
Wii launches Nov. 19 in the Americas at an MSRP of USD 249.99. Its Wii Remote lets players control the action on their TV screens through the motion of the controller itself. It's designed for young and old, novices and experts.
