Pokemon X & Y to star in US McDonald’s Happy Meals

Nintendo has signed another Happy Meal licensing deal, this time in the US.

Having announced last month that Mario was to feature in UK Happy Meal boxes, Pokemon has now been pencilled in for a fast-food tie-up across the Atlantic.

As revealed on the chain’s website, each meal includes a card and one of 12 toys from a selection including Pikachu, Venusaur, Axew, Dewott, Blastoise and Charizard.

As Polygon reports, it follows on from a recent promotion involving Activision’s Skylanders IP – and that was the second deal between the pair.
