Nintendo of America will turn its flagship Nintendo World store into the Mushroom Kingdom to tout the release of Super Mario Bros. for the Wii console.
On Saturday, the Rockefeller Plaza
store will be filled with costumed characters and feature live gaming stations, trivia games and a tournament highlighting the game's multiplayer capability.
The event will also feature a Super
Mario Bros. museum with memorabilia from Nintendo's archives chronicling the pioneering game character's nearly 25-year history. --Aaron Baar
