It's good to see that someone is getting some use out of the Nintendo World Store.

Next weekend Nintendo will be hosting the Wii Father's Day Challenge at the store. The challenge will pit father-son teams against each other in a little Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree smarts-off.

The afternoon event wil also include some graduation-themed Nintendo giveaways and plenty of hands-on gaming. The event runs Jun 16 (the day before Father's Day) from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the World Store in Rockefeller Plaza.

NINTENDO HOSTS Wii FATHER'S DAY CHALLENGE

Dads and Kids Team Up to Compete at Nintendo World Store in Rockefeller Plaza

WHAT: Nintendo celebrates the release of Big Brain Academyâ„¢: Wii Degree with the Father's Day Challenge at the Nintendo World store in Rockefeller Plaza. Dads and kids of all ages will team up for a bracket-style playoff to determine who will take home the honors. Teams will use the new multiplayer features and split-screen views as they "weigh" their brain against their competitors. The top two teams of the 20-team tournament will face off for the title of "Biggest Brain."

Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree, which debuts on June 11, is the Wiiâ„¢ sequel to the successful Nintendo DSâ„¢ title that allows players to exercise their brains in five areas: thinking, memorization, computation, analysis and identification. Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree includes 15 new stimulating activities and features three new multiplayer modes, which allow friendly competition with up to eight different players.

Copies of Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree will be available at the Nintendo World store. Attendees can also receive graduation-themed Nintendo giveaways throughout the day.
