Nintendo hunts out Metroid champ

In celebration of the recent release of Metroid Prime Hunters on DS, Nintendo has announced that it will be holding a nationwide tournament, seeking out Britain's best bounty hunter in HMVs across the country.

Known as the 'Hunt Is On Tournament', the event is set to take place on May 20 at HMV stores in Birmingham, Edinburgh, London and Manchester. All four stores will be linked via the magic of video so you can stare down your opponents and make them do a little poop in fear. It's a common tactic that, distracting your enemies with their own fetid pants.

Anyway, winners of the tournament will win an all-expenses paid trip to Seattle to meet the makers of the game, while runners-up will recieve HMV vouchers which, presumably, Nintendo is hoping you'll spend on its own products. Or a DVD of Debbie does Donkey Kong.

If you fancy a bit of interga-blastic tete-a-tete, then get yourselves down to HMVs at Birmingham High Street, Edinburgh Princes Street, London Oxford Street and Manchester Market Street on May 20. We'll be there!

Actually, no we won't. We'll be having a lie in.
