Nintendo DSi Game Giveaway

We had a little girl in our neighborhood several years ago who loved to sketch pictures of clothes. She was always pretending to be a fashion designer and some of her sketches were pretty amazing for an 8-year-old. I bet she would love the Nintendo DSi game “Imagine: Fashion Designer World Tour.”

This game, by Ubisoft, lets players design the next big thing in fashion and travel the world to build the design into a worldwide fashion label. Players can launch their international brand, open boutiques around the world, and design the hottest, most wanted fashion in the world. The game lets you:

  • Travel the World – Promote your fashion brand all over the world as you set up runway shows, photo shoots and celebrity endorsements.
  • Open boutiques in iconic fashion cities, and promote your brand by taking part in local fashion events.
  • Dress the hottest celebs in your designs and be seen on the red carpet.
  • Design Your Brand – Create a fashion collection under your own label.
  • Choose your brand name and customize your own logo from a variety of fonts, backgrounds, and colors.
  • Design amazing collections of different themes.
  • Go shopping to accessorize your designs, from shoes and jewelry to hats and purses.
  • Become a fashion expert – Become a world-famous fashion trends expert as you travel the world looking for the hottest fashions. 
  • Dress models all over the world!

Ubisoft is a leading producer, publisher and distributor of interactive entertainment products worldwide and has grown considerably through a strong and diversified line-up of products and partnerships. And the company certainly gives back to the community, having recently announced the recipients of four $25,000 college scholarships. The Ubisoft  ”Imagine Your Future” sweepstakes, a month-long online sweepstakes that awarded more than $100,000 in prizes, including four $25,000 college scholarships to aspiring students, included winners ranging from an unborn child to a 16-year-old high school student.

The sweepstakes was created to commemorate October as “Imagine Month,” during which four brand new video games from Ubisoft’s wildly popular Imagine series became available at retail.
