Six Flags Partners with Nintendo for Wii Sports Resort
Nintendo’s Sports Resort, which makes use of the Wii MotionPlus accessory (also talked about in my Tiger Woods Review) is getting an early preview at some Six Flags Parks.
Six Flags, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SIXFQ), the world’s largest regional theme park company, announced today that it will expand its partnership with Nintendo and provide theme park guests with the unique opportunity to play the upcoming Wii Sports Resort™ video game. The game features 12 different fun sports activities like archery, basketball and table tennis that everyone in the family can play and comes with the new Wii MotionPlus™ accessory, which makes games even more precise.
Wii Sports Resort will be showcased daily in the Wii Experience in nine theme parks across the country. In addition, Wii Sports Resort will be featured in an extensive in-park media program including commercials on Six Flags TV and its Jumbotron Network as well as signage and online presence on www.sixflags.com.
Sports Resort comes out on July 26th (I’ll be sure to review it) but if you’re itching for a preview, one of the selected parks is Six Flags Magic Mountain, here in the LA area.
