Nintendo Connection Tour = Biggest blow to your ego unless you win.
vyse's super professional tips:
1. Pick a character that can KILL. Dedede, Ike, Pkiachu('s Thunder) and Lucas('s upsmash) are ideal.
2. Be quick to snag a gamecube controller, or otherwise you'll be playing with a wiimote.
3. Expect a second of input delay on their plasma TV -.-
4. Give free prizes you receive for answering trivia questions to the kids, you don't really need that Golduck figurine/help the littlies answer the tough questions like 'what is DK's favorite food?'
When it comes to the stock rounds, play it super safe. Seriously.
Smashballs suck -.-
