Nintendo Hosting a 'Ladies-Only' Wii Sports Boxing Competition

TwilightPrince | June 06, 2008 | News | Wii Company 
Nintendo is really trying to reach out to the casual gamer with this one. On June 12, Nintendo will be hosting a Wii Sports Boxing contest in a New York City bar, but this contest is only for the ladies. The winner of this tournament will win a Wii, what a surprise!

Nintendo will also be hosting a Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournament on Father's Day. This tournament will be held in the Nintendo World store in New York City on Sunday, June 15. People of all ages and genders are invited to play.
Who'd have thought that drinking and the Wii would go so well together? Nintendo is hosting a Wii Sports Boxing contest in New York City at a bar called Sutton Place at 1015 2nd Ave., on Thursday, June 12, at 7 pm.

Don't expect to see two muscular brutes slug it out with Wii controllers though--this contest is reserved for women only. Participants will have a chance to win a Wii by boxing friends, colleagues, or anyone else who wants to be the next million-dollar baby.
