Nintendo is taking the Wii on tour! Oh, and the DS too.
There'll be some games playable (duh) including Wario, Wii Sports and Zelda.

oh yeah by the way this is a UK only tour. Some strange locations such as The Good Food Show and Clothes Show Live... and alot of Universities. Wait, they're going to a golf show?!

Wow, it's in Glasgow a lot, where I live at the moment, I actually live about a 1 minute walk from the Glasgow SECC but I'm going home to Manchester for Christmas, might stay around to see it.

Good idea for the SECC right before Christmas, the place is massive, really close to town, and is known for a lot of trade shows, the bastards always park down my street when they visit it

 

[rdellw]

Hmm, i hope there's more dates in london that british gaming haven' got yet. =/

 

[JonathanEx]

The dates not there are 2007 ones. :/

 

[Ninja Dom]

Only one date in London??

London gets no love??

It's at the Carnival, so I'd imagine they must have a stall or something lined up.

Hmm, I'm going to this 'good food show' then, it doesnt sound so bad i guess.

Edit: wait, it's on the 10th of november and I have to pay =/ I guess i'll just wait a few weeks for the UK release.

I've never been to "The Carnival", don't tell me there's going to be even more people parked around my flat, I've only lived here for 8 months and get pissed off with everyone turning up for teen boy band gigs.

I've just realised how many shows they have before the release date, I thought they would be selling the thing in the shopping centres but I suppose they can't before releaes.

Tanks you! new dates are supposed to be added heres hoping to the glades in bromley.

 

[MrPing1000]

ffs Northern Ireland screwd as usual. Be damned if I'm going all the way to Dublin either.

 

[Britprog]

This is a joke!!! Only one date for London and its at the good food show which cost £15 to get in. NOE are idiots!! Why don't they hold a special event in Oxford street!!!

 

[MrSardonic]

i'll try to go to one of these...but the lack of free London presence in busy areas is retarded, as you would expect from NOE

 

[Thraktor]

10 - 12 November
Toys 4 Big Boys, Dublin

Damn, I'm going to have to stop boycotting that show.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Jesus. I'm forced to go to Liverpool all the time because my girlfriend goes to uni there, and the one possible positive result of that could have been the Wii tour going there. But of course, it isn't.

 

[radioheadrule83]

I'm in Liverpool

Hopefully more dates are announced soon. Otherwise, Manchester here I come!

 

[Ninja Dom]

AGREED!!!

 

[Rocked]

Yes, the lack of London events is strange, hopefully the GAME store on Oxford Street will have some in.

 

[MrPing1000]

to restate what they said in the article.

This is not all the dates, more to come.

 

[sharkie]

I've realised that there are alot of Londoners on this forum Ealing/Westminster represent
