Fusion Tour at the Nintendo World Store
Dedicated Ninty tipster and fellow blogger Andrew Yoon had a chance to hang out at the Nintendo World Store this past Tuesday, when the Fusion Tour stopped by with their load of games ... oh, and they brought some musicians or something, we're not really sure. After the Wii, it all gets a little blurry. Andrew's video coverage is definitely worth a watch. We particularly liked the guys who were trying to put a brave face on waiting in line ... those guys are fans! But everything pales in the face of game footage. It almost brings a tear to our eye. Wii Fanboy will be hitting the Tour later this month, so keep an eye out for even more media goodness.Check after the jump for the video.
