Friday night was one hell of a night as yours truly got a chance to swing by Nintendo World’s 20th Anniversary event celebrating 20 years of Nintendo Power. The event itself was pretty tight as free drinks and chill people were abound. Any night with free drinks around is my kinda night! If you never had the privilege of going to Nintendo World, the store was converted from it’s usual layout to one that had a lot of open space for party goers to chill and log in some time on upcoming Wii games such as Mushroom Men(which is looking like a sleeper hit) and Rayman: Raving Rabbids 3. I also had the pleasure to meet some big names on the Nintendo side of gaming and that would be RMC (Raw Meat Cowboy) of GoNintendo fame, Triforce (Empire Arcadia and Tetris DS Guinness World record holder), Mike Wilson of the Gamecock crew and the Mushroom Men devs themselves, Red Fly Studios!
Gamers, press and industry folks hammed it up with free drinks and finger food. One of the popular attractions was a photo booth which was constantly packed with people waiting to snap a shot of themselves acting the fool. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to do so, but it was all good as I got to chat a bit with RMC along with Mom Brain. It was pretty tight talking with the creator of perhaps the biggest Nintendo fan site on the net. And really interesting to hear about his day to day maintaining (you really learn to appreciate a little thing called sleep) the site. Mom Brain was funny too as she had some jokes for my boy 2.0 as he was holding a drink in both hands (one for his lady) as we chatted it up, but that didn’t stop the jokes from coming his way. It was also funny to hear about some of RMC’s biggest fans. You all would be surprised as they are some of the biggest names in the Nintendo circle of gaming and news. Yeah, he’s pretty popular!
