Nintendo Celebrates Family Fun by Hosting the Ultimate Late-Night Party for Mario Party 9
WHAT:
To celebrate the launch of Mario Party 9, a new game launching
exclusively for the Wii console, Nintendo is teaming up with Big
Brothers Big Sisters of New York City and Radio Disney to host a
fun launch party. Invited guests will be among the first to try
out the 80 new minigames, adventurous new stages and exciting
boss battles in Mario Party 9 before the game launches on March
11. Throughout the evening, attendees will enjoy food,
beverages, live entertainment from Radio Disney and a chance to
win cool prizes (while supplies last).
The party is back and bigger than ever with Mario Party 9, as
boss battles crash the party and challenge players to compete
and defeat a common enemy. In a series first, players now travel
across stages together in a vehicle towards a common goal,
overcoming obstacles, battling bosses and collecting Mini Stars
stolen by Bowser and his minions. But don’t get too friendly –
only one player can become the Superstar.
Tune in to Radio Disney AM 1560 in the weeks leading up to the
event. Four lucky listeners will win tickets to attend and party
with Mario and Luigi. More information about Mario Party 9 is
