Hello members.

As you all may know in disgust that playing Nintendo games prior to launch is pretty much impossible (excluding importing) so when I heard that Nintendo was touring around Britain I jumped at the chance to go see this amazing event for myself. So I did.

3 hours drive. Making the wrong turn. Listening to a stupid Satellite Navigator. Getting shouted at by Nintenjo. All this payed off when we arrived from a very stressful journey. But we finally got there and we were gobsmaked, the Nintendo boothe looked very impressive to say the least.




We just knew we were in for a good time.


This is where the magic started.


Unfortunately everyone was too big for it. Including me. But woah look of the size of him. Scary.


This was so much fun. Except for the whiplash, the rubber burns, the rope getting caught in your legs etc. all in the name of Nintendo though :D


The star of the show by far. Hands-on down the page. Pure magic from start to finish.


That's me and my Nintendogs. What a great game, shame about the sun glaring onto the screen. Ah well.


Mario KartDS. Only got to play this for a few minutes but I can tell you now. It's an amazing game. 10/10


Sadly, I didn't get to play this game because of little annoying kids were hogging the Gamecube pad. It looked great though.


This was the slightly small Pokemon section but it looked cool nonetheless. Pokemon Emerald, Pokemon Dash and Pokemon XD made their appearences here.


These are the people who made thevisit possible. A toast for JO and MATT!!!


Hmmm fury. My cousin broke the ear off of this Mutt Truck. He said that they would take him away to japan. They didn't.


I would pay alot of money for this truck. It was very fun to touch.


They weren't chained to the floor. Nintenjo insisted that we stole one.




I wouldn't want to spoil it for you would I?


Nice sign.


This piece of "set" was taken from E3 in Los Angeles this year.








That was inside the main Nintendo truck which boasted loads of cool games old,new, and some not launched.



I felt that some advertising was in order so I payed to have this done. Pretty sweet :D Proud of me? :P

Well that concludes the tour with a "truck" load of pics for you to view. This event was amazing and for the following tours, whoever can go SHOULD!!! Playing zelda, mario kart, running on the bungee run is all a memorable experience that I will NEVER forget. My heart bleeds for the US, it really does. Nintendo fusion tour should be coming to US soon, so look out for it!.

*Video footage and a full loowdown of ALL the games that were on show will be coming soon, I promise.

Thankyou for your time.

RE: This board

Very nice advertising there, chuddy. :)

Also, that Nintendogs truck thing looks very cool. I know I've seen something like that before, though. Just can't remember right now... Hmmm.
