Wii Sports Resort launch event in Times Square on July 23rd

Nintendo will transform the electric and concrete jungle of Times Square into a Wii Sports Resort tropical island getaway for the launch of the Wii game. Here are the details from Nintendo on what you'll find:

"Nintendo is transforming New York's famed Military Island in Times Square into an urban island getaway to celebrate the launch of the Wii Sports Resort video game. On July 23, anyone who visits this Manhattan landmark will be treated to a mini-vacation, complete with a sandy beach, swimming pool and tropical lounge - all smack dab in the middle of the city - plus a chance to play Wii Sports Resort in advance of its U.S. July 26 release date. Based on the imaginative Wuhu Island locale featured in the game, this interactive oasis will also offer game demonstrations, giveaways (while supplies last) and a bar serving tropical non-alcoholic drinks."
