Ready To Rumble? Tetris Battle Royale In Tokyo

As Japan's Golden Week kicks off (making a painfully slow news week), Nintendo has set up an enormous Tetris DS display to lure small children and old people. The display, set up in Fuji TV's home Odaiba, features 10 kiosks in which players battle it out in Tetris DS. All ten games are projected onto an enormous screen, and the winner gets a free t-shirt. Yay.

Ninety booth babes (ehem, "companions" here in Japan) were also on hand to guide folks through brain training games, English games and Point and Say games. There was also a NiWiFi battle corner that lets folks duke it out with players worldwide. Event ends on May 7th.
