Post Street Team Sightings in Talkback!

The Nintendo Street Team members have been chosen from the finalists and will begin this weekend visiting malls and other locations in their quest to promote the latest Nintendo games. Their uniforms will either be playable GameCube set ups with a 15-inch flat screen in front, a battery backpack and console and controllers attached altogether weighing 30 pounds, or the much lighter belts with Game Boy Advance titles.

The team members will be around for six hours every Friday, Saturday and Sunday in shopping malls equipped to get people to play the games. Two days of training took place for participants earlier this week where they learned about the history of Nintendo, the games and how to act in difficult situation which may come up. It will also be possible to follow their progress on a website, where they are able to keep diary entries and photos.
