In order to promote their new Wii game,
D3 Publisher and Tomy will hold the
Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution World Ramen Noodle Eating Championship at the Nintendo World Store this Saturday. Apparently-well-known champion eaters will come to compete at the chopsticks-only event, including "Crazy Legs Conti, a man who once ate his way out of an 96-cubic foot box of popcorn."
Tens of dollars worth of ramen will be consumed at this event, which is only part of the
Narutosity taking place at the NWS.
The store will also have stations set up for visitors to try out the game (the
Naruto game, not the eating-a-bunch-of-ramen game) and play the
Naruto CCG. In addition, special gifts will be handed out to 1500 people who dare to walk around New York City in those headband things. Perhaps most excitingly, a one-of-a-kind
Naruto DS Lite will be given away. Will it smell like chicken broth? Probably!
