Tomorrow, you could be playing a Nintendo 3DS.
If you live in London, Manchester or thereabouts - and quite a lot of people do - you can touch and prod and grope Nintendo's magical new handheld well over a month before it goes on sale.
Two special events have been organised, one for each city. But Nintendo hasn't got space for everyone - you could say there's not mushroom.
Cue Eurogamer, gallantly arriving with a bold offer of help, because Nintendo loves your work, Eurogamer reader, and is keen you attend. But how can I get past the Goomba security guards, you ask? Simple: put your name down on the Nintendo website (http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/events_31044.html#get-events/h/e).
From there, your name embarks on a magical journey, and if it's picked by a giant Bowser-like claw from a magical hat then ding, ding, ding: you're a winner - you're going to the event.
