Nice going Nintendo, you just copied Microsoft’s idea…kinda.

Nintendo is calling for all movie makers to create movies in Nintendo’s Short Cuts Showcase. All you have to do is create a 3-5 minute Nintendo themed-film. Of course, you have to be over 18 to enter. And if you win, your movie will be shown in NYC (at Rockefeller Center), you will win a Wii (and Wii games), $10,000 dollars, a DS Lite (and DS games), Trip to NYC for you and a friend.

Second and Third place gets their video shown, as well as a Wii and Wii games. While 4th through 10th place get a DS Lite and DS games.

You must submit your entries (using the entry form on their site) before June 6th and people will be able to vote on your videos (Judges will make the final judgments). To check out the contest website click here.

I am a kid who likes to wach shows a lot and waches pokemon movies often. As a movie you should make and this is only an idea, use all the pokemon ever made including the rare and legends and have a war on all the team rocket pokemon but team rocket made clones of them all and the pokemon along with ash misty and broch whoever will have to stop them. this would be a good movie if you introuduce new pokemon and call it an event to give away a new pokemon.
