Posted September 16, 2006 Thanks to Cubed3 for the news. http://www.cubed3.com/news/5966/1/Nintendo_Plans_UK_and_Ireland_Wii_Roadshow I'll certainly be looking out for details, and hope that it will stop somewhere in Devon (or Bristol at a stretch)! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 I wonder if there's somewhere you can apply to be a rep. Then i'd be able to play the thing non-stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 OMFG!!! Nintendo mentioned "Ireland". Holy cow! I didnt even know Yarnton knew we even existed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 Well I'll be going Swansea uni in a week so I hope they do one in cardiff or something cus I doubt they'd do one in Swansea. Either way I'd probably still come home to Birmingham to play it again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 Chances are Milton Keynes is my closest location thats gonna get a Wii tour date, or the obvious location, London. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 I'd still rather go to the two day Nintedoathon. Managers have all the fun *hmph* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 There's a 2 day Nintendo-athon?? I presume by "Ireland", he means Dublin and Belfast (Possibly Cork) so thats not too bad, at least im living in Dublin most of the time now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 16, 2006 There's a 2 day Nintendo-athon?? "athon", "athlon" would be like a Nintendo sports event :p But yes, the managers of Game are all going to a two days Nintendo conference October 31st & November 1st to playtest all the new things, find out strategies for the christmas etc. Its cause Nintendo and Game are now partnered (and also why all the managers recently got a DS Lite the lucky gits) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 16, 2006 When is the Nintendo Wii be playable in Game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 16, 2006 4 stops with 200 miles in between each I reckon. That'll be a sellout tour if they hire those unenthusiastic fuckers who did the Hamleys job. Way to ruin the day for people who travelled for ages Nintendo UK. Knowing marketing people are lazy and never turn up to the events that they organise (as they did with the Hamleys show) and knowing they will probably use the same agency for hiring staff to do the roadshow I conclude it will be shite.

Posted September 16, 2006 Im hoping they come to the North East especially the Metro Centre. Most of the Pokemon events came here so its looking good. *crosses fingers* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 16, 2006 Yarnton knows that Ireland is island somewhere near the france and that it has gnomes. He's more informed than that ! In fact, he's after your pot o' gold, and maybe even your lucky charms ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the Pokemon events came here so its looking good. *crosses fingers* I hope by "North" they mean the North of Britain (and all the stuff below it) not the north of England like it usually is.
