Nintendo Will Present Kart Keys to Lucky Winner in Clarksville, Tenn.
–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo:
WHAT:
Nintendo will deliver a life-size Mario Kart™ vehicle to a Clarksville, Tenn., resident as the lucky winner of the GameStop® Epic Reward Giveaway™. Nintendo will present him with the keys to the fully functioning kart.
To celebrate the recent launch of the Mario Kart™ 7 game for the portable Nintendo 3DS™ system, Nintendo teamed up with West Coast Customs to create life-size models of two karts from the game – one for Mario™ and one for Luigi™ – and unveiled them at the 2011 LA Auto Show. A recent episode of Inside West Coast Customs on the Velocity Network showed how West Coast Customs and Nintendo worked together to make these video game vehicles a reality. Members of the GameStop PowerUp Rewards™ program had the opportunity to claim Mario’s kart as part of the monthly Epic Reward Giveaway. The kart comes complete with a decorative glider wing, as represented in the game. The Luigi Bumble V Kart resides at Nintendo of America’s headquarters in Redmond, Wash.

Update: Added in another photo.
Nintendo of America posted the photo above to their Facebook page a short while ago. Additionally, the company wrote the following:
“?#Regginator himself was spotted getting ready to make some announcements. Stay tuned on this page tomorrow for the latest and the greatest!”
So… there will be announcements then? Nintendo Direct presentations have mainly been about games that have already been revealed. Maybe tomorrow’s show will be slightly more special than normal. We’ll see…
