Nintendo 2DS and the Play Nintendo Tour 2014 make a perfect pair for summer fun whether you’re a kid, a teen or a young-at-heart adult. Nintendo 2DS offers kids and anyone new to gaming a great first-time system, and the tour events offer everyone an exciting opportunity to play together.
Guests will enjoy whimsical-themed gaming zones filled with iconic items like banana-shaped seats in the Donkey Kong area, a giant Poké Ball in the Pokémon section and Yoshi egg chairs in Yoshi’s island. Attendees will also have the chance to meet costumed characters Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong and Kirby. Radio Disney will also be at the events, featuring the Radio Disney Road Crew and prize giveaways (while supplies last).
Racers can satisfy their need for speed in the Mario Kart racing area, where their skills will be put to the test on Mario Kart 7 in qualifying rounds. Winning drivers advance and will be eligible to move up to the main stage to show off their racing skills on a giant TV screen featuring the new high-definition, anti-gravity racing game for Wii U: Mario Kart 8, which launched May 30.
