Competition: Give Someone The Gift Of Nintendo This Christmas
Get that warm fuzzy feeling...
Thanks to our friends at the Nintendo Official UK Store, we have an extra special competition for Nintendo Life readers. As Christmas is a time of goodwill we want one lucky reader to give the gift of Nintendo to a friend or family member who, for whatever reason, deserves a treat this holiday season.
The Wii U Family Pack includes the Mario Kart 8 Wii U Premium Pack, Wii U Sports Club, and an Exclusive Mario Red Wii Remote Plus and Wheel for Wii U, worth a whopping £299.99. All you need to do is tell us about that special someone you know and why they deserve this unique festive gift, and you could be putting a broad smile across their face come Christmas morning.
About The Prize
The latest entry in the massively popular Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 has it all — glorious HD visuals, gripping online play and plenty of characters, karts and parts to experiment with. The title was recently updated with some amazing DLC which brings The Legend of Zelda's Link to the track, and there's more coming in 2015. This is one of the Wii U's best games and the ideal stocking-filler for Christmas.

im guessing you cant say something about yourself...
@thebigN you can if you want, just have a good reason!
Oh I don't know anyone who deserves Nintendo, well not anyone in my good books at the moment anyway.
I've submitted for my brother, but honestly this must be tough for NintendoLife...I mean who doesn't deserve Nintendo?
This is a fantastic idea to get people to think a little bit less selfish at the time of year some people are dreading.
Like the person i nominated and Nintendo with Mario Kart would her year, not just her Christmas.
Well done NintendoLife
Would it get sent directly to the nominated person?
@dubber thanks, we thought so too
@dizzy_boy ideally, yes, but if there was a valid reason why that couldn't happen we could work something out I'm sure!
Good luck people, here's hoping this goes to a deserving person and makes their day!!
This is awesome, share this page guys, good luck to all! In particular my two nephews who I've entered for lol
How many times can we enter ?
@antdickens hi ant, just trying to check if my entry has been received ok - it's showing that it has,but when I entered I saw a second brief notification that said not open to entrants outside the UK (happens when I'm using my work comp for this website, even though I'm in UK). If it's not gone through ok, is there another way I can submit it? Cheers
@SteveButler2210 yep, we've got your entry!
@ULTRA-64 Someone could win it and throw it in their attic or shed, because we all take things for granted.
@ULTRA-64 Yes let`s all hope someone who really does deserve it wins it. @antdickens I won`t enter because I don`t know many families thank you anyway. I hope someone who really deserves it wins it.
Good luck and Merry Christmas everyone.
I hope it went to a good home! The sad thing is all those families out there who don't have one! Can't you be like Oprah or Ellen or whoever and be like "Wii U's for everyone!!"
Has the winner been emailed?
@antdickens I'd love to know if you guys have informed the winner yet...? Just to put me out of my misery, I entered for my sister's boys, genuinely fancied their chances for some reason! Lol
@ShidaPenns @MJKOP we'll be emailing the winner later today, we've had loads of entries to read through and some really heartbreaking stories, it's a very difficult decision for us to make!
@antdickens I'd imagine so. I'm sure it'll go to a good home, my two nephews have had a tough two years but I didn't go in to that, there is always, always someone worse off, right?
Congratulations to whoever won this! This was a very nice thing for you to do, NLife. I mentioned in my submission that I wanted to win the Wii U for my partner so that I could use the money saved (I was going to buy her a Wii U anyway) to help my partner travel to see her Grandma before she passed away, but unfortunately she died a lot earlier than expected this morning.
Life is a series of surprises, good and bad, but this kindness that the people of this website has shown to help make someone have a great Christmas is very inspiring!
Hello! Just to let everyone know that we selected a very deserving winner for our competition, we decided not to disclose information about the circumstances of the winning family out of respect for their situation.
We hope their family is enjoying the Wii U and thank everyone for entering, it was great to hear such Christmas spirit within our readers. We'll hopefully do something similar again this year and maybe on a bigger scale.
Cheers!
