Select Best Buy stores to demo Super Smash Bros. on Wii U
Can't wait to get your hands on the new Super Smash Bros. on the Wii U? If you're near a Best Buy you might not have to wait much longer. On June 11th from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. and June 14th from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time, more than 100 Best Buy locations across the U.S. will host a Super Smash Bros. Smash-Fest where you can check out the same demo version of the game as those getting to play it at E3.
In addition to checking out the demo, the first 70 attendees who pre-order Super Smash Bros. for either the Wii U or 3DS will get a rare collectible Super Smash Bros. gold coin (limit one per customer). On top of that, anyone who pre-orders AND picks up their game upon release will get a $5 My Best Buy Reward Zone certificate.
For a list of participating stores, head on over to www.bestbuy.com/smashfest. For those in the Ohio area, these include Chapel Hill, Mentor, Polaris, Toldeo, Tri-County, and Youngstown. Sadly my store is not on that list (Tuttle Crossing). Oh well.
