According to G4TV, Nintendo and Best Buy have paired up to ring in the launch of Brawl with a nationwide tournament.  The tournament will be held in four separate locations over the next four weeks; two are located on the East coast and two in California.

Each site will have a total of 256 competitors challenging to be crowned the ultimate champion.  All participants will be given a $10 Best Buy gift certificate and one incredibly lucky champ will take home a customized Nintendo Wii.
