THE PLAY NINTENDO TOUR INVITES FAMILIES TO ENJOY A SUMMER OF FUN IN CITIES ACROSS THE U.S.

Nintendo :

This summer, Nintendo is bringing smiles to cities across the nation alongside Mario, Princess Peach, Donkey Kong, Pikachu and more with the Play Nintendo Tour. From June 13 to Sept. 2, Nintendo invites kids and their parents to explore the endless adventure and fun of Nintendo and the Nintendo Switch system at various stops across the nation. The national tour is free to attend and brings with it exciting interactive experiences featuring photo-ops with Nintendo characters, giveaways (while supplies last), and playable demos of the latest Nintendo Switch games.
 
The Play Nintendo Tour has something for everyone – whether that’s discovering a new favorite character, enjoying a family activity, or just showing off your skills in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game! Much like the Play Nintendo website, the Play Nintendo Tour is also a destination for families that’s packed full of fun activities, friendly Nintendo characters, puzzles, quizzes, videos, and more.


What else can young fans expect from this interactive experience? Opportunities to explore the fun and magic of Nintendo worlds and characters – here are just a few samples of what’s in store:

 

 
Parents can join their kids in plenty of themed fun and activities for the whole family at the event, including personality quizzes, jumbo puzzles featuring Mario and friends, memory matching games and an opportunity to try your hand at the claw machine to snag fun items, just to name a few. The tour even has a dedicated area where attendees can learn more details about the Nintendo Switch system and find some recommended games based on their family’s favorite characters.


Guests will receive a free Play Nintendo Tour passport, in which they can collect stickers after participating in various activities at the event. With a completed passport, they will receive free Nintendo goodies such as Play Nintendo bracelets, coloring pages and even a free Nintendo Switch Online 14-day trial code* (while supplies last) – not to mention a chance to use the claw machine to snag loveable character plushies. Attendees with a Nintendo Account can also check in with My Nintendo at the event to receive a Super Mario themed gift item (while supplies last) and 100 My Nintendo Platinum Points** to redeem for rewards on the My Nintendo site.
