PN Contest: Around the World of Wii Fit U in 88 Days: Final Results
Update: This is it! 88 Days have come and gone, and now it is time to announce the winners of our largest contest yet, “Around the World of Wii Fit U in 88 Days”! Congratulations to all our winners, and a special thank you to everyone who participated!
______________________________________________________________________________
To kick off the New Year, PureNintendo.com and PNM are holding a new contest, “Around the World of Wii Fit U in 88 Days”. As you saw in the video above, the contest starts today, and goes on until April 2 2014. Every 22 days, I will be submitting a new video detailing who is in the lead, so if you want to be in the next video, you will have to give me a progress report by midnight PST on the previous Wednesday. The submission dates are below:
Day 22 Submission – Sunday, 26 January 2014Day 44 Submission – Wednesday, 19 February 2014Day 66 Submission – Wednesday, 12 March 2014Day 88 Submission – Friday, 4 April 2014
Photo submissions must be in by midnight of the dates listed above. You do not need to submit for the first three videos in order to be considered for the contest; only the final date. If you want to be mentioned in the video updates, then you must submit photos by midnight PST on the dates listed above along with the name you want us to say on the video. You can start on this contest at any time between now and the final submission date. Just be sure to put in the subject line “88 Days”, and say that you are entering the contest. Once entered, you will receive a confirmation e-mail.
What kind of photo will we be looking for?
As you probably can guess, we really need to see the milage counter, so we’ll need to see a photo that looks something like this:
About these Video Updates…
Every 22 days, we will be putting up a small video showing who is ahead in the race. Some of the PNM staff will be joining in this race, so you will be able to see their progress as well (don’t worry, they can’t win any of the prizes, they’re just in this for fun).
What kind of prizes are we talking about here?
Besides a clean bill of health, we are giving away prizes to the top three winners of this contest. Third prize will get a P-Wing Pin and Pure Nintendo T-Shirt. Second prize will be a P-Wing Pin, Pure Nintendo T-Shirt, and a 1-year physical subscription to PNM. Finally, first prize will be a P-Wing Pin, 1-year physical and digital subscription to PNM, and a Limited-Edition Pure-Nintendo E3 2013 T-Shirt.
We wish you luck in your trip around the world. If you have any questions, please let us know at: matt@purenintendo.com or contest@purenintendo.com

Sounds like fun, though I won’t be able to attend the contest because I don’t own a Wii U.
(I wonder if Jackie Chan plays Wii Fit U. Get it?)

Too bad it’s starting now. I’m almost done all of them since I started in November. Hope they add more once these are finished…

Don’t worry. You can start at any point. We really just ned to know your initial milage.

Are prizes just for the US or is Canada included too?
January 8, 2014
Prizes can be shipped internationally. Even the PNM subscriptions are available internationally.

Sorry, this time it is just the US.

That’s unfortunate.

Just remember that the Wii Fit U software is free if you download it before January 31st and then sync a Wii Fit Meter to it! http://wiifitu.nintendo.com/free-trial/#

Thanks, I know I just unfortunately do not have a balance board. I never had either the Wii or Wii fit Plus for the Wii. I really intend on picking up the bundle version when it is released.
