November 25 to December 22, Nintendo will visit 23 locations nationwide to give holiday shoppers a chance to experience the Wii U console, the recently released Nintendo 2DS and the Nintendo 3DS family, and an amazing software lineup of fan favorites. You may even get to take a picture with one of your favorite Nintendo characters. There’s plenty of games that you can sample, from Zelda: A Link Between Worlds to Super Mario 3D World.
Thanks, Jonathan
Look out for Xbone employees there. For sure they’ll be luring customers to buy Xbone instead.
Ha, yeah http://mynintendonews.com/2013/06/16/footage-of-microsoft-employee-trying-to-sway-people-at-wii-u-best-buy-event/
Is the new media charts coming from Japan tomorrow (Sunday)? I’m interested to see how much the Wii U has dropped since last weeks miracle. Let’s hope it’s still high up there!
I don’t think it will drop much, since a Taiko No Tatsujin game for the Wii U is being released there.
You put Super Mario 3D Land instead of World, man
Yup! Fixed.
The biggest problem about the Wii U is that it has to be tried for people to want it! Therefore, Nintendo need to do this more often. And one thing they also need to do, is FUCKING ADVERTISE IT!
I agree. They definitely need to advertise the system more. Also, weren’t they teaming up with Tesco to “raise Wii U awareness” like they said here:

That’s only in the UK.
Yeah, really. These “23 Locations” are kind of sad. Nintendo should be visiting at least 100 locations if they want to make an actual dent in sales with this.
That’s a pretty long time to have those demos up, good job getting the word out there Nintendo.
Yes!! They’re going to Oregon!! I might actually get to go :D :D :D

All forces on high alert Defense Code N-13…
Prime objective: protect N-civilians from the Microclones attack! -_-
Wow, there’s been one right by me for years now and it’s not going there anymore. Jerk move Nintendo.
Maybe they move it to spread the word rather than stay in one place, it does suck for those who wanted it there though.

This is great. These are month-long events, so a lot of people are going to be able to try the console and games out. Then the people who enjoyed the experience will probably consider buying it for Christmas. It’s a perfect idea and Nintendo is doing it at the perfect time.
In addition to this I think Nintendo needs to take the videos out of the Kiosks they already have and make all the games playable.
I want to work at this! I can sell anything Nintendo related. My passion for them is endless!
