MEDIA ALERT: BUSKERS MAKING NEW YORK HOLIDAY SHOPPING MORE FUN WITH WII MUSIC PERFORMANCES
Creative, Wildly Interactive Game To Make Beautiful Music Nov. 22-23
WHAT:
Live musical performances have always been a fun part of the holidays. This year, Nintendo will be making spirits bright by bringing Wii Music to your neighborhood. This weekend, Nov. 22-23 between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. at the Staten Island Mall in Staten Island, NY, holiday shoppers will be able to see first-hand how Wii can be turned into a musical instrument with Wii Music. A family of street musicians will be on hand with Wii Music to demonstrate the 50 different tunes and more than 60 instruments available in the game, from melodic steel drums to soaring trumpets.
To play Wii Music, players simply use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers to make the same motion you would with a real instrument: strum a guitar or pound on the keys of a piano. The game challenges players to transform their improvised notes into great music.
You won’t want to miss these fun-filled demonstrations the entire family can enjoy. To find out where the street performers will be each weekend in November, please visit www.WiiMusic.com.
