Later this month a big gaming event is taking place in Poland and Cube-Europe are proud to be a part of it.
In January this year the first "Nintendo Convent" was undertaken in Poland. It was a huge success, so much so that another is due soon.
From the 26th to the 28th of June the second Nintendo Convent will take place in Poland, next to Cracow. This edition however will be bigger and better then the last. With special guests promising to attend and games that will later be shown at ECTS.
The following events will take place during the days.
- Football
- tournament
- Fashion contest- A Cosplay
- Fireworks show
- Talks about the future of gaming
- Promotional action with EA Poland
- Visits from famous people
- Bonfire
And the all important games that will be playable include:
- Mario Kart: Double Dash
- Soul Calibur 2
- F-Zero GX
- Need for Speed Underground
- Fifa 2004
All the above games will be played in tournaments and there is likely to be more games to play.
Cube-Europe has teamed up with GameOnly and Swiat Nintendo to promote the event. For more information visit Game Only and Swiat Nintendo (both in Polish).
Alternatively you can check this powerpoint presentation for more information. However you will require Microsoft PowerPoint.
Update:
You may have noticed the activities list has been updated. After words from the leader of Game Only he did mean bonfire. The fashion contest is a cosplay event as well.
Update #2:
The organizers of the Convent have informed me that they have created a new website for all the details. While it comes in Polish as well I presume most people will want the English version.
