Fusion Tour kicks off in September

The Nintendo Fusion Tour, a live, travelling musical event, will arrive in Columbus on September 27th.  In addition to some of today's most popular bands, Nintendo will be showcasing the DS Lite and most importantly, the Wii.  I hope to be there personally to give my updated impressions on the Wii, and maybe my opinion on alternative rock.  For Columbus dwelling Nintendo fans, this is the perfect opportunity to check out Wii before it hits shelves this fall, if you couldn't make it to E3 (or past the insanely long lines).  Check out the full news post for the tour's schedule.
The Nintendo Fusion Tour promises to be
one of the hottest tickets of the year.  The cross-country tour, produced by
Live Nation, will be headlined by Hawthorne Heights and will include
up-and-comers like Relient K, Emery, Plain White T's and The Sleeping.  In
addition, each location will showcase the best new and upcoming Nintendo
games, including a sneak peek at Nintendo's amazing Wii console.
