So, to find out if your local EB Games or GameStop store is hosting the tournament, go to www.ebgames.com/smash or www.gamestop.com/smash (not that it matters) and click on “First Round Store Locations”. Prizing for the American tournament includes trophies, trips and a Grand Prize of an LCD TV, the entire First Party Wii software library, a Wii and some accessories, a trophy and $5,000 cash. All the details, including full tournament rules and regulations are also available at those sites.
