NiGHTS contest - winner announced!

Friday, February 1st, 2008 at 9:08pm by David

Congratulations go out to Thomas from St. Louis, Missouri! He shared this crazy video game related dream with us and won a copy of NiGHTS for Wii:

In my dream, I was in Japan, outside of the nintendo studio where they are making Super Smash Brothers Brawl. I started shouting “Sakurai! Sakurai!”. Then some fellow nerds from Japan joined me and before I knew it we had a big group all shouting “SAKURAI! SAKURAI!” Then a Nintendo flag from in front of the building was lowered. For some reason, the lowering of this flag in my dream meant that the game had been completed. Shortly after, Sakurai walked out of the studio. Myself and all the fanboys that had been chanting with me cheered loudly and surrounded him. Then a UFO came out from the sky and crashed into a nearby railroad.

Thanks to everyone who entered. Be sure to go back and read through some of the entries for a good laugh!

Dewy’s Adventure contest adds water weight

Monday, September 17th, 2007 at 10:58am by Jack

Dewy’s AdventureThose of you thirsting for Dewy’s Adventure can add to your fervor with a new contest from Konami and Nestle today. Best part? It’s healthy. And it’s for the children, so really you have no choice but to enter. Just be sure to schedule your increased number of bathroom breaks accordingly.

Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. and Nestle Waters North America Inc. will provide a positive “Green” and health message to children this fall with a promotional partnership surrounding the highly anticipated release of Dewy’s Adventure for the Wii home video game system and the popular Nestle Waters’ beverage option for kids, Aquapod Natural Spring Water. Through the partnership, Aquapod will administer a national contest and sweepstakes offering consumers a chance to win an exciting rain forest/eco-adventure to exotic Costa Rica along with other fabulous prizes, including copies of Dewy’s Adventure. The sweepstakes will run from September 12th through November 30th.

If you’re into this title (I’ve heard it’s hit or miss, but I’ve been wrong about a lot of things so…), then get drinking.

TXT ‘ZELDA’ 2 ‘20769′ 4 CHANCE 2 WIN TRP 2 NYC!!1!

Thursday, September 13th, 2007 at 9:03am by Jack

Golden DSObnoxious, huh? Well, it’s what the kids are doing these days, with the texting and the Googling and the whatnot, and Nintendo has it all covered with a new contest!

Beginning today, to mark the Oct. 1 launch of The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Nintendo is asking people to answer three Zelda-related trivia questions for the chance to win an amazing collection of prizes. I don’t know what the questions are yet, but one of them has to be about estimating the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow. Has to be.

To receive the three trivia questions, contestants must text “Zelda” to 20769 or enter by mail by visiting Zelda.com between Sept. 13 and Oct. 26. People who answer all three questions correctly will automatically be entered into the contest.

One First Prize winner will receive a trip for two to New York, two nights at a hotel, a $1,000 closed-door shopping spree at Nintendo World, $500 spending money, a special-edition Nintendo DS and a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Nine Finalists will receive a special-edition gold Nintendo DS and a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Winners of the first prize and their guests must be 18 or older.

Get dialing Infendo, and don’t forget your friends here at the site when you win.
