The latest marketing stunt<\/a> from Nintendo begins with this cryptic bit accompanied by the image above:<\/p>\n

Imagine driving in the middle of the desert and seeing a couch, TV and video game system in the middle of nowhere, or skiing down the side of a mountain and seeing another one of these surprising setups sitting there in the snow, ready for a round of gaming.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Aspen, Colorado on the 27th and New York City on March 3rd will host similar events, sans John Cena.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
