May 19 is Multiplayer Battle Day for Fans of Kid Icarus Uprising
REDMOND, Wash., May 16, in the year of our Lord 2012
- Since the March 23 launch of Kid Icarus: Uprising on the
Nintendo 3DS system, legions of fans have experienced the game's
action-packed multiplayer features. To make it easier than ever
for fans to come together, Nintendo of America has created a
Multiplayer Battle Day Meetup Everywhere community that people
can use to organize their own local Kid Icarus: Uprising
multiplayer tournaments, meetups and social gatherings*.
Fans and Nintendo 3DS users are encouraged to get together and
battle it out on Saturday, May 19, which has been designated as
Kid Icarus: Uprising Multiplayer Battle Day. Using a broadband
Internet connection or local wireless connection, players who
own a Nintendo 3DS and Kid Icarus: Uprising can compete in the
game's frenetic multiplayer modes, whether battling it out in
three-on-three Light Versus Dark mode or six-player Free-for-All
mode. The 20 groups with the most participants will receive
special Kid Icarus: Uprising premium items such as AR Card packs
and T-shirts, while supplies last.
Meetup Everywhere is a simple-to-use online platform that
enables followers to coordinate local, real-life meetups based
on shared interests. Nintendo 3DS users who are interested in
sharing Kid Icarus: Uprising multiplayer experiences, trading AR
cards with others or exchanging in-game weapons using StreetPass
are invited to visit
http://www.meetup.com/nintendo3ds to find events in their
area or to plan their own meetups.
