Nintendo held a press conference today on world famous Ocean Drive in Miami today (aka tourist trap) at the swanky Penthouse suite of the Tides Hotel to give the Hispanic press and local celebrities a chance to play the Wii hands on. Here's the awesome part -- everybody brought their kids too, it was more like an all-out party than a press event. We met with Mario, spent some time with the (hawwwwwwwt!!!) anchors from Univision, the (equally hawwwwwwt!!!) PR people, and took tons of pictures and videos of the event. We also spent a lot of time playing Zelda: Twilight Princess on the Wii and will give you some impressions on that. Stay tuned tonight as we pump all of this through our FireWire, through the interweb tubes, and into your homes.
And what's this? We also scored some sw33t Nintendo schwag which I shall not be parting with ;) The bag included a 64meg Wii-branded memory stick with tons of video footage from the games (press kit), the Wii badge from the picture above, a water bottle, a sweet Wii travel bag, and a squishy Wii Sports bowling pin (for stress relief/self defense). Tons more coming - stay tuned!
