Steven says: Depending on when the Wii launches, this "sneak peek" could come after the fact for some cities. Or perhaps the system will launch on November 12?

Here's the Official Website which isn't complete yet: http://www.nintendofusiontour.com/

Here's the official announcement: http://www.nintendo.com/eventdetail?...opW3zpwj4N5hV9

So, what do you think of this? And more importantly, will you go to one? And if you could go/when you go, would you be more interested in the Music or the Nintendo Related stuff? As for me, I doubt I'll be able to go. If I could, I'd be more interested in the Nintendo related junk. :tongue:

How about you?

It passes by Detroit on September 29th. I'd like to go, but I'm in school that day, and I HATE being absent (too much work to make up).

Cheers Nintendo for only touring America...

Awesome. Its coming round here. But I probably wont go. Seeing as my mother thinks going to concerts at my age is too risky and stuff. I dont know what it means either so dont ask ;D

it goes to my hometown(or right next to my hometown) on October 5th, but I'm in college down in VA, and the closest it comes to me here is a 6 hour drive!!! So it's funny how when I'm home everything is far from me, then when I'm not there it's close to home

I find it important to note that it's suppose to be a sneak peek at the Wii, And people currently think the Wii will be released Early October(no proof just speculation). But chances are the Wii will be released during this tour, so some people may get a sneak peek, while others may already have the system. If not, then we know the Wii wouldn't be released til after November 11th.

THE JACKEL

Well, I like some of the bands (though I don't see how they're "up-and-comers"), but I won't be going to this. It'd be cool, but I have school the entire tour, and working weekends + homework won't leave me time to go. If I did go, it'd be for the music and the Nintendo stuff equally.

SPOKANE!?

Man, that sucks. Ah well, it sounds interesting.

I'd be interested if the bands weren't total crap.

Also, up-and-comers Reliant K? Haven't they been up-and-coming for like, five years now? You'd think they'd have come and gone already.

Oh my god... a REASON to go to detroit. Finally.

Maybe if I bring my Pokemon Silver cartridge they'll download Celebi into it.

Alright a San Francisco one! I am gathering my friends to go!

Perfect. Just perfect. The nearest one is a three hour drive...on a school day...damn.

Men that really bites it is near in my area this year.
