    Default Miyamoto to be at the Nintendo World Store 9/25

    Just got an email over the grapevine: Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto will be doing autographs and doling out goodies Nintendogs-style at the Nintendo World Store in NYC this Sunday (Sept. 25th, 2005). Time: 11a-1p.

    They are apparently going to be handing out a "Mr. Miyamoto" DS skin to people in line.

    I myself do not plan on going, but thought some peeps around here would be jonesing to go. I am not a Nintendogs fan - don't even own a DS yet (want a black one).

    There is also a Nintendogs fashion show or something like that on the 24th (Saturday) at Riverside Park 1-3p - something about fashion designer dogs by Hilton, Duff, something like that.
    You are startled by a grim snarl. Before you, you see 1 Red dragon. Will your stalwart band choose to (F)ight or (R)un?

    that would be awsome, imagine the value? too bad nobody would believe you. Take a pic of him signing them or something.

    only the first 200 get autographs, and you better be damned right u better be in line atleast 8 hours ahead of time. I can see people brining their sealed legend of zelda's on nes and then selling them on ebay for over $2000.

    Im only about an hour and a half from nintendo world store, but I simply dont feel like going there all set on autographs and be dissapointed to see the line a mile long when I get there.

    You might want to tell them to get in line the night before instead.

    Hmm.. Maybe I'll get up early and take the Chinatown bus from Boston into New York or something. I don't know.. depends on how I'm feeling and how far away the Nintendo World Store is from my dropping point.

    Knowing them (and they live in the city too) I wouldn't put it past any of them.

    It's a little weak because then only the plasticwrap gets signed.

    I wonder if any1 had a complete and mint stadium events if they would get it signed. On one hand you are putting marker on your mint stadium events, but on the other hand you are getting it signed by miyamoto... Signatures usualy always raise value (if they are signed by someone of value that is)

    I contimplated (can't spell, it's too early) bringing my NWC down for him to sign. One of a kind? Probably.

    I would do it, but I don't have it in me to wait for 18 hours. I think the safest bet is to get there from 7pm on.

    Tough call... to me actually. IF I had an NWC cart, I don't think I'd want anything (not even a signature of Shigy) on it. I'm not sure why, but thats the way I am. Getting him to sign a copy of SMB/DH however, thats fine.
    If I lived in/near New York, I'd be all over this.

    Was the original LOZ shrinkwrapped, or did it just have the black sticker like the other black box games?

    man it sucked balls I was like the 220th person online but the thing that sucked the most was the fact that when i got on the line there were only around 130 people online. I only ended up with 3 ds skins they were giving out
