Australian Nintendo 3DS tour kicks off this weekend

The rolling tour around the country begins, first up Parramatta

Nintendo’s plan to get the Nintendo 3DS out to the masses begins today with the first of the ’tour’ events kicking off in Parramatta. You’ll be able to go hands on with the Nintendo 3DS and finally get to see how it all works. Nintendo doesn’t lie, you really have to see it to get it. Feeling left out? Don’t worry there is a bunch of events coming to every part of the country. We’ve got a list here, but be sure to check Nintendo’s site for the latest updates.
