3DS locked in for Midlands MCM Expo

MCV Staff 4th February 2011 Business News

Nintendo 3DS will be playable at this year’s Midlands MCM Expo.

Consumers will be able to get some hands-on time with the eagerly-awaited device and try out its unique 3D functionality for themselves at the show, which runs from February 19th to February 29th.

Nintendo 3DS is not just about being able to watch and play in 3D without glasses – it also offers unique social experiences,” said Nintendo of Europe’s managing Laurent Fischer. In the way Wii brought families together, Nintendo 3DS will appeal to a broad range of people.”

The event means players can try out the 3DS more than a month before the handheld arrives in the UK on March 25th. This sampling opportunity complements Nintendo’s own tour which is currently making its way around the country.

Midlands MCM Expo takes place at Telford International Centre. It is the sister event of the London MCM Expo, which is held in May and October.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
