Nintendo Quiz Show

By Podshow on July 15th, 2009

Our favourite Japanese company are finally spending some of the cash they’ve been printing with the incredible sales of the Nintendo DS and Wii. After a successful advertising and sponsorship campaign on Channel 4 in the UK last year, Nintendo have decided to sponsor a new quiz show called Britain’s Best Brain for Channel 5. It appears the show’s format uses a similar set of skills to that of the successful Brain Age for DS and Big Brain Academy for Wii. Contestants on the show will need to be highly skilful with their memory, co-ordination, numeracy, recognition and risk taking.

If you’re (un)lucky enough to live in the UK there are seven open auditions across July and August in major shopping malls but those who don’t live close enough can email the production company for more information, we’ll let you know as soon as we hear if Nintendo announce anything similar for US audiences.

List of audition dates;

• 18th-19th July – Braehead Shopping Centre, Glasgow
• 25th-26th July – Arndale Centre, Manchester
• 1st-2nd August – Westfield’s Shopping Centre, London
• 8th-9th August – Queen Street, Cardiff
• 15th-16th August - The Bullring, Birmingham
