TMCNet:  Nintendo Shakes Up Six Flags St. Louis

[September 23, 2008]

Nintendo Shakes Up Six Flags St. Louis

--(Business Wire)-- Nintendo Media Alert:

WHAT:  On Sept. 27, visitors to Six Flags St. Louis will find a new
     kind of thrill as Nintendo hosts an interactive competition
     to celebrate the launch of Wario Land(TM): Shake It! for the
     Wii(TM) console. The Wario Land: Shake It! contest invites
     veteran gamers and new players alike to use the Wii
     Remote(TM) controller in unique ways, holding it sideways
     and shaking it to help surly anti-hero Wario(TM) run, jump
     and smash his way through a hectic side-scrolling adventure.
     The contest winner will be rewarded with a "Bottomless Coin
     Sack" prize package that includes a Wii console, a copy of
     Wario Land: Shake It!, a handheld Nintendo DS(TM) system and
     a gift certificate redeemable for Six Flags merchandise.
    To heighten the excitement, entrants in the Sept. 27 contest
     at Six Flags St. Louis will compete against players at Six
     Flags Magic Mountain near Los Angeles. One lucky grand prize
     winner will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to New York
     where they can visit the Nintendo World store for an awesome
     shopping spree. Six Flags St. Louis will also be one of 10
     Six Flags amusement parks nationwide to host Wii Experience
     game kiosks where visitors of all ages can step right up and
     play Wario Land: Shake It!
    Wario is the gaming industry's most mischievous and
     unpredictable anti-hero, known for greedily grabbing up
     coins, munching on garlic and occasionally grossing out
     audiences with his audacious behavior. Participants in the
     contest will enjoy a rare chance to experience the
     irreverent fun of Wario Land: Shake It!. The contest is free
     and open to all Six Flags St. Louis visitors with paid
     admission.

     Wario fanatics of all ages
