Competition: Win The Chance To Attend The Wii U Experience in LA
Posted by Damien McFerran
You could be one of the first people to get your hands on Nintendo's new console
UPDATE: This competition is now closed. Thanks for your entries, we'll be in touch shortly!
Nintendo of America is hosting a series of Wii U Experience events around North America this year, allowing gamers to get to grips with the upcoming Wii U console.
To celebrate this event we're giving away 10 Family passes and 10 Adult (over the age of 18) passes to the Wii U Experience in Los Angeles, which will take place on the 22nd and 23rd of September.
To win the chance to attend, simply complete this sentence in 10 words or less and explain why you're so excited about Nintendo's latest piece of kit:
\"My body is ready for Wii U because...\"
And just to be clear, those words don't count against your 10 word limit.
Please also ensure you are able to make it to LA on the dates specified, and that you state clearly in your comment post whether you want a family or adult pass, if your entry is deemed to be a winner.
And that's it. Post your entry in the comments section below (along with your preference for either a family or adult pass) and we'll contact the authors of the best efforts in the next few days.

mankira said:
My body is ready for Wii U because my mind and body are too, and I deserve it. (Adult Pass)
P.D. The reason why I deserve to go is because I got a "very exclusive" invitation from Nintendo telling me that I had been selected to try the Wii U during the Wii U Experience Event in Los Angeles (This is the code I got to register:DCFLXL878325); unfortunately, I could not register until about 2 days after I got it. Thus, to my surprise, the event was already SOLD OUT. I felt so frustrated when I found out that I could not register that I contacted NOA first, and then the staff from the Wii U Experience Event. I tried to explain them what had happened and they told me that more people than expected had registered, and the event was full; in other words, I was out. When I found out that you were giving away this tickets, I just thought that this was my last chance to attend the event.

@mankira You join Nintendo Life, just to enter this?

mankira said:
@squashiejoshie I visit this website almost every day since 2009, but since I do not like to participate on the discussions very much, I thought it was not necessary to create an account with Nintendo Life. I know my action was deliberate, but it's just that I want to go to the Wii U event so bad. In short, I just joined Nintendo Life to participate on this competition.

#68
IAmNotWill said:
Check your email folks. Wish I could fly out to L.A. for this. Got an invitation but California is on the other side of the country lol
#69
elbrody83 said:
I know for sure that I'm going because I was straight chosen by nintendo for the event wich is taken place somewhere in Hollywood
#70
Deviant_Mugen said:
Wow, I actually won... too bad I'm a few states away from California. Oh, well...
#71
theblackdragon said:
@IAmNotWill, @Deviant_Mugen: you guys are the second and third people I've heard say they can't make it to the event even though they won — didn't you guys read through the entire article? It clearly says to "ensure you are able to make it to LA on the dates specified"... come on, road-trip or something! :3
#72
Tasuki said:
Congratulations to the winners!!!!
@IAmNotWill, @Deviant_Mugen: No offense but if you knew you couldnt have made it there why did you enter? It is plainly stated to make sure you can attend the event before entering. That was completely rude of entering a contest that you couldn't use the prize and taking away a chance from someone who could.
@Damo: So are you guy going to redistribute the tickets that people won but said they cant make it?

MelisaM21 said:
Did anyone get a location on where this event will be held yet? Or did I just receive a scam e-mail claiming I've been invited...
#74
elbrody83 said:
@MelisaM21 yeah its at the Siren Studios
#75
MelisaM21 said:
hmm ok. What e-mail were we supposed to be notified by for this contest? I got a fanscape.com e-mail that said I would receive event location info after confirming my time slot. I replied right away and haven't gotten a response about location (and event starts today). Must not have been legitimate I guess
#76
elbrody83 said:
Well I don't have idea what kind of email you will get by the contest,the event starts tomorrow so I'm thinking there must be something shady going on with that email you got
#77
MelisaM21 said:
Did other winners receive their tickets okay or was I the only one that got punked? I'm so very disappointed
#78
antdickens said:
@MelisaM21 it was fanscape.com that organised the event on Nintendo's behalf so that email should of been legitimate, we're just chasing them up now and let you know as soon as we hear something...
