Crystal Mario Surfaces Down Under
Posted by Brad Long
Melbournians, show your NSMB Wii chops to win!
The Nintendo Experience, EB Games of Swanston St, Melbourne are hosting the only launch event for New Super Mario Bros. Wii in Australia.
From 9pm onwards on November 11th, everyone is invited to join in on the fun and have a chance to play the game with others before taking their own purchased copy home. They'll also be hosting competitions with the promise of great prizes, including the ultimate drool-worthy 3D Mario glass statuette, with rewards for wearing the best Mario character costume as well.
So if any one of our Australian readers happen to drop in on the event, let us know how it went. And if you happen to win that statuette, send it immediately to the Nintendo Life offices - postage paid, of course.

T'would have been nice if these events were hosted simultaneously around the country. I don't care so much about the glass thingie, but it'd be nice to be able to get the game early.

@Aviator At least you don't live in Perth. This event is about as far away from me as London is from Moscow!
