WHAT:


Nintendo is bringing its Wii U console to Navy Pier in Chicago as part of a six-city tour to give people a chance to experience second-screen gaming for themselves. The tour is free and open to the public, and will include hands-on time with a wide selection of Wii U games, including Pikmin™ 3, The Wonderful 101™, The Legend of Zelda™: The Wind Waker™ HD, Nintendo Land™, New Super Mario Bros.™ U, LEGO® City Undercover, Resident Evil Revelations from Capcom and Injustice: Gods Among Us from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. (Playable games may vary by location.)


Visitors will be able to play all these Wii U games in a comfortable, living room setting surrounded by backdrops of some of Nintendo’s most beloved characters.
