Nintendo has struck a marketing deal that makes the Wii the “Official Gaming Console” of the Six Flags theme park chain.The agreement will bring Wii gaming stations to select Six Flags locations so park-goers can check out the console free of charge beginning in 2007. Nintendo and Six Flags will launch additional marketing initiatives including a Six Flags sweepstakes on Nintendo.com.

Sweet! Nice find there! That will surely attract a lot more people to the wii. Plus, I have a season pass to sixflags... XD
God, I love that danceing old man!
I love...when Coca-Cola has the summer special where if you bring in the can, you can get the tickets at buy one get one free. Adding the Wii just made our monthly trips look so much more tantilizing.
I miss Six Flags so much. Used to be a season ticket owner and went the whole summer to the one in Atlanta. Been out of the U.S. for over 8 years now and it's been a long time since I got to ride on any roller coasters. Now I want to go more than ever. I used to like to go in October for the Halloween night.
that actually sounds like a bad idea... I can see a bunch of retarded prepubescent kids f**king it up somehow if they didn't steal the thing
I think itll help them... But i wouldnt never go there to play it. TOOOO much long of wait and also it would be too loud i hate it. "Not the wii" Too many teenagers to ruin it sides i already have one..
I've never heard of a marketing strategy like that. But come to think of it, that oughta work out pretty well. Happynoodleboy makes a good point though. If they can make it work it should work out well.
Cool, i've never been to a big theme park so whatever.
Should be cool...
this isnt a new idea, think about mcdonalds has had N64's and ps1's in the play areas for a long time. also they could make it so people cant steal it, but a hard plastic case around it with a long cable attached. i think its a cool idea, not sure how much for us, but i could see a six flags channel being released soon.
Or maybe they could send you a free ticket if you've registered your Wii and a certain number of games. Doubt it but that would be cool.
About the mcdonalds thingy, I went to a McDonalds near Quebec I think last year on a trip with my school and they still had N64's set up.
